There’s A Funny Upside (Down) To This
(I work for a computer retailer. A customer brings in a system he bought about an hour ago.)
Customer: “Yeah. I want to return this computer. The CD-drive isn’t working.”

Customer: “Discs don’t fit inside it.”
(I hook up the machine to a monitor setup we have and open the disc tray, and it reads the CD I put in just fine.)
Customer: “Wait, the computer looks different now!”
Me: “Different? Sir, this is an Apple. They look pretty much the same all the time.”
Customer: “No. The symbol on the side there! It’s upside down.”
Me: “It’s an Apple: a leaf, and an apple with a bite out of it.”
Customer: *embarrassed* “I… put it on the floor upside down, didn’t I?”
