Not Quite Feeling This Request
(An artistic, elaborately dressed woman wanders in and is standing by the paint samples in a melodramatic stance. I wander over.)
Me: “Can I help you?”
Customer: *gives me a withering look and says* “I’m looking for Bittersweet.”
Me: “That doesn’t sound like one of our colors, but I can look it up in the database and see if we can match it.”
Customer: “No… I’m looking for a color that invokes the feeling of bittersweet.”
(I stand dumbfounded for a second.)
Me: “So… is that like an orange or something?”
