We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Dude, could I love Dr. Will more?

No, NO I could not.

Lee, yes he did.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I could not love Danielle more, here at 8:45.

Lamely, it's such a relief not to have to figure out the characters like you usually do in the first episode!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dell technical support convo:

6:20:44 PM How may I help you today?
6:21:27 PM The laptop that was just ordered seems to be DOA. I've had it on the charger for ~24 hours, and it won't power up.
6:22:21 PM Ita, If I am correct the issue is with the laptop(notebook). Is that correct?
6:22:48 PM Well, it won't turn on, so that's what I'm assuming.
6:24:24 PM Ita, you have been connected to a printer tecnician, please let me know if I connect you to the laptop technician.

Looking good! Except for the part where I have to leave in three minutes. And then start this whole thing all over again. I don't give a fuck where the tech support is located. Just make sense in English. It might not be official, but it sure is predominant among your customers, I'd bet.

That wasn't a human on the other end, right?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I had a conversation like that once with...umm....some sort of tech support. I don't remember who.

When they responded with "If I am correct the issue is with..." part, I was pissed because I had detailed all the problems already. My response? "Am I talking to a human? Because if so, you're an idiot and can't read." There was a 30 second pause and then I got a real human saying, "Oh, yes! I'm real. I'm sorry I didn't read your initial comment more clearly."

Yeah, right. I was talking to a computer and then got switched to a real tech support person.

As a tech support person on the other end of the line, I get docked points for not restating the issue. Oh, and I have to use the person's name at least three times, no matter how awkwardly placed it is. Tain't so easy being the geek in the headset, either.
