Madlibbing Customers

Some more fun with students trying to buy Microsoft products...


  • "Hi, I'm here for the stuff, that, uh, Microsoft lets you bring home. And use. You know. For like, computers."

  • "I'd like a copy of Micro...uh.. Offi... The Home and Stu... no... um... it's for a computer. That stuff you sell. I saw an advertisement."

  • "Do you have any Microsofts left?"

  • "I'd like the newest Windows 2000 please."


  • "I need the latest Office Operating System to run my Windows. Wait, no I need the latest Operating System from Office so I can run my Microsoft. Yeah, I had it backwards, hahaha!"
Sorry, no, I wasn't laughing WITH you, there.
Bonus: These are actual quotes from the last week of November and December 1, 2009. Two of the people I had quoted came back, after realizing they bought the wrong thing after all.
