I overheard this at a Wal-Mart Auto Center counter yesterday:
20-something guy: "What's up with my car, man? They said it would take 90 minutes, and I've been here almost an hour!"
(I had a heckuva time not right there!)
30-something woman behind the counter: "Um, sir, 90 minutes is an hour and half." (smile)
20-something guy: "Oh." Slouches away.
And for the Bill Engvall fans out there: HERE'S YER SIGN!
Reminds me of the time on a lawnmower forum, a guy was asking how much oil goes in a Kohler engine.
Another guy posts: "3 pints."
I posted right after that, "Well, I don't know about you but I use a quart and a half."
He pops right back up: "It says right in the manual that it's 3 pints! You do what you want but I've been fixing these for 20 years blah, blah, blah…"
I let some other guy come in and post that uh, DUH, 3 pints IS a quart and a half!
You just can't make this stuff up, man!
