Our New Laptops Turn Water Into Wine
(I work at a major electronics retailer. On this particular day I am in the computer department when I approach a friendly, somewhat stereotypically redneck, southern man to see if he needs any help.)
Me: “Hi there! What brings you in today?”
Customer: “Well, I’m lookin’ at some o’ these laptop computers, and besides Sony or Haytch-P or Tuhshibuh, what other brands do you like?”
Me: “Well, we have a great deal on an Asus—” *I pronounce it “AY-soos”* “—and it’s really—”
Customer: *interrupting* “’AY-SOOS?!’ Ain’t that what the Mexicans call Jesus?”
