Retarded oil guy

Went to get my oil changed, and this guy's comment was so retarded it gets its own blog entry.

Me: I'm here for an oil change.
Him: Okay, you're here to get an oil change?
Me: No, actually I was hoping I could perform one. Do you have any gloves I can borrow?

da dee da dee dee daaaa

couldn't think of a good title. again, haven't written anything in a while, so this will be random. what's new?

I had to get a land line recently, and i've since noticed a drastic (and by drastic, i mean not drastic) difference in the two voice-over women that walk you through checking your voicemail. you know what i'm talking about. you dial verizon (my cell carrier), and the girl goes...

"Please enter your passcode, then press pound."

No personality, no nothing. she might as well have kicked me in the crotch. HOWEVER, when i hear the Embarq (my land line) woman, she says, in that oh-so-sweet sounding voice...

"Hello!"
(then my recorded voice: Jon)

reading the "hello" doesn't really do it justice... she says it in ABSOLUTELY the sweetest sounding voice you've ever heard. it's almost like how a 7-year old that's just discovered an abandoned kitten on the side of the road might say it. and i recently noticed that since i got the land line, i've decided the Verizon woman is a heinous bitch.
