From "The Actual Conversation With An Actual Customer" File:
Upon filling a prescription for the antibiotic Zithromax, a close relative of erythromycin.
Me: "Mrs. Smith, I see we have you on file as being allergic to erythromycin, is that correct?"
Idiot #1: "I don't know, what did it do to me?"
Yeah.....um.....you know.....I would ask the person who told me you had this allergy..........EXCEPT I JUST DID!
Later on in the evening we had this:
Me: Your prescription will be $5 sir.
Idiot #2: WRONG! I have INSURANCE! The copay is TEN DOLLARS!
Customer's always right you know. I happily rang up $10 and the douchebag walked away thinking he had really showed me......
Now it may surprise you to hear me say that experiences like this can leave me a tad....bitter.... angry at times even. Tonight though, I'm gonna jump off the angry train and onto a track going in the complete opposite direction. I am using the motivation provided by these and countless other dimwits to start anew, to begin a project that will lead to a happy, meaningful, and productive remainder of my years.
I am going to start a magazine. I have a preliminary working title of "The World Can Lick My Hairy Scrotum"
I mean, I kinda like writing here in my little blog garden, and the key to happiness is to do something for a living that you like, right? Check this out though, I can go one better than just writing. How about in this magazine, I have a regular column where I review different brands of scotch, the wrinkle would be that I am not allowed to start writing until I had ingested at least 4 ounces of product. I think this would be very entertaining for both writer and reader, a true win win.
I am also working on developing some contacts within the serial killer community. I mean, who doesn't like reading about serial killers? Fuck, a serial killer is a printing press to make hundred dollar bills, that's what a serial killer is. Plus when a serial killer is caught, I don't think you have to pay them anymore.
I also think the magazine would run regular cartoons mocking Jesus. Mostly because I like to mock Jesus, but also to show Danish Muslims it's possible to be a good sport about these things.
Throw in a little hate mail from the avalanche I'd be sure to get after the first few issues, and it's gold. Fucking gold baby.
And when I accept the Pulitzer Prize that is surely in my future, the first person I will thank.....will be the erythromycin allergy moron. My anger will have been finally conquered, my mind..... finally at peace.
I hope I can get a job at your magazine I am in desperate oindition for money.
ReplyDeleteI may have to cancel my subscription to cat fancy though if I want to subscibe to your mag.
I shall help you on your scotch filled adventure, and call dibs on the scotches of Islay.
ReplyDeleteThis is easily your best post yet. I love the working title. Consider nutsac in place of scrotum. I also fully support your scotch review and its policies. Perhaps I can help out and contribute druken gin reviews.
ReplyDeleteI will be more than happy to contribute to the drunken vodka reviews. Also, if you need more info on the Serial Killer thing, I am pretty sure I have some addicts that are just on the verge. Come on out, I am pretty sure we can push them over the edge and then use them for our financial gain.
ReplyDeleteI also agree, nutsack may be better than scrotum
And dearest Drug Monkey.....of course the Congaqween would definitely be interested in making herself available to provide write-ups for you on those smashing(no pun intended)Dirty Martini's of yours!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'll keep the scrotum/nutsac references out of my post, as u are well aware that the Congaqween does not discuss such personal things in the public forum.....ok....except with YOU!!!!
