Dell-ete This Number

(My son answers our home phone, listens for a moment, and informs me it’s something about a virus. I know what’s coming, so I take the phone from him.)

Me: “Hello?”

Caller: “Hello, I’m calling today because our system has detected a virus on your Microsoft computer.”

Me: “Oh, that’s not good. Which one?”

Caller: “Your Microsoft computer.”

Me: “Yes, which one?”

Caller: “The one that runs Microsoft.”

Me: “We have three computers; they all run Microsoft.”

Caller: “You are asking the brand of computer?”

Me: “Yes”

Caller: “That would be your Dell.”

Me: “Ooh… Swing and a miss. Goodbye.”
