See! Not just computers!

Customer asked me questions about "Mac Ahus Eccs." Huh, you ask? Mac OS X of course. I'll let the reading of X to Ecchs pass (even though it is pronounced "ten" in this case), but Ahus? Damn.

She also asked me about my shirt. It's a button up with a print on it. One side is a fish, most likely a large carp, the other side is a Samurai with a Katana. The lady said she liked my "Indian Shirt." "You mean the Japanese one I'm wearing?" "Oh, is it?" "Yes, the Japanese text and Samurai are a dead giveaway."

She then commented on the Native American symbol on my shirt.

THIS ONE;



Y'know, the ancient, revered symbol of the AIRPLANE, and the CLOCK, and the MUSICAL NOTE. WTF?!

"You mean the Tiger Dashboard icon?" "Huh?" "You know, the icon you click on in system 10 to bring up Dashboard? The system that's on that computer you were telling me you just bought and use all the time?"

I apologize to all the Native Americans hurt in the telling of this stupid, stupid, story.
