simply, lindsey. asked:


I was having trouble with my computer.
So I called Harold, the computer guy, to come over.
Harold clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.
He gave me a bill for a minimum service call.

As he was walking away, I called after him, “So, what was wrong?”
He replied, “It was an ID ten T error.”
I didn’t want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, “An ID ten T Error? What’s that In case I need to fix it again?”

Harold grinned…. “Haven’t you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?”

“No,” I replied.

“Write it down,” he said, “and I think you’ll figure it out.”

So I wrote it down.
I D 1 0 T

I used to like Harold..

Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with those
expensive double-pane energy-efficient kind.
Yesterday, I got a call from the contractor who installed them. He was complaining that the windows had been installed a whole year ago and I hadn’t paid for them yet.
Now just because I’m blonde doesn’t mean that I,
am automatically stupid. So I told him just exactly what his fast-talking sales guy had told ME last year…namely, that in just ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves!
‘Helllooooo’!!! (I told him). ‘It’s been a year’!
There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up.
He hasn’t called back, probably too embarrassed about forgetting the
guarantee they made me. Bet he won’t underestimate my intelligence again!!!
