A coworker just declared aloud
That she doesn't understand how a "lifetime warranty" can be "limited."


Give me strength...

6. That was basically my response
I said "Well, an unlimited lifetime warranty is only good if you're immortal."


She didn't understand that, either...

9. Did I mention that she's blond?
:evilgrin:



Actually, she isn't. And as a matter of fact, when she made her comment, the blond-haired woman who sits across from her flashed a delightful expression of disgusted incredulity.

What a topsy-turvy office!

14. Tell her that that she'll never have to worry if she gets the extended warranty.


It covers her in this lifetime AND the next.

15. Well me and a coworker who is about my age
(I'm 38 and she's 35) were both complaining about how after 30 the health issues start. My comment is that one's warranty runs out after 35 or so...Can I request an extension?

16. Check the expiration date on your birth certificate
There should be something on there about warranty extensions.

Perhaps an extensive round of chelation therapy is what you need...
