QBlog's Farcical Help Desk - 12
By QBlog in Farcical Help Desk
Every Friday, the QBlog Farcical Help Desk™ answers the Quixtar questions that nobody dared to ask. Additionally, each Help Desk answer is guaranteed to end with some form of punctuation or we'll refund your money. No fooling!
Question: I keep hearing that Quixtar is a 'cult'. What's
up with that?
Answer: It's not a cult.
Q: But some people have all kinds of evidence that it
might be.
A: Well, that may be, but it's not a cult. If you have any doubts, just keep
telling yourself over and over 'it's not a cult, it's not a cult, it's not a
cult'
Q: Thanks. That does help.
A: Anytime.
Q: Did you read this article about Quixtar?
A: No, which one?
Q: The one where "IBOAI's Don Wilson lauds new
Quixtar Store for More Catalog"
A: No way. Quixtar Diamond Don Wilson has great things to say about the new
Store for More Catalog? I can't believe it. Where can I read this article?
Q: The article is at Web
Wire and it's really awesome!
A: Web Wire! I heard of that. It's like the New York Times on the Web.
Only the New York Times is on the Web so it's like another New York Times on
the Web, without the crossword puzzle.
Q: Yeah. And did you know the Store for More is offering
clothing, fitness equipment, abd even major household appliances?
A: No, I did not know that. Wow.
Q: I can't wait to read more awesome articles about
Don Wilson. I wonder what he will laud next?
A: Well, between you, me and the wall I heard he's getting ready to start lauding
blogs. But you didn't hear that from me.
Q: Don Wilson Lauds Blogs? Awesome!
A: Awesome!
Q: I was trying to shop at Quixtar the other day and
all the products were just really expensive. Why is that?
A: They aren't expensive.
Q: Uh, yeah they are. A case of soda for $27? That's
nuts. That's more than $1 per can.
A: No it's not.
Q: Yes it is. A case is 24 cans. $27 for the case. That
is a little more than $1 per can.
A: You forgot to subtract your bonus.
Q: Oh, you're right. Well now it ain't so bad.
A: See how it works? Never forget that bonus. And you're earning PV/BV on that
case of soda.
Q: Thanks.
A: You're quite welcome.
Comments
In a related story did anyone notice that the IBOAI has taken the bold step of endorsing Quixtar's Artistry skin care line?
Talk about putting themselves out on a limb.
What is the term for "google-bombing" when the same method is used to bury stories in the newswires?
Awsome! :D that was THE most common word comming out of my LOS mouths :)
abd even major household appliances? abd?
Awsome!
