Went into PC World to pick up a cheapo printer to replace a faulty one today, as I'm heading to the till with the new printer and the salesman the conversation goes like this;

"It takes these cartridges..." he says, picking up this;



"...the ones with the tiger on the front... or the cheetah as I like to call it"

I really wanted to say "I expect that's because it is a cheetah you fking clown" but figured he works in PC World so I won't ruin his day any further.

I don't think you are giving the sales bod full credit there, as you will soon find out.

My printer takes a 'Toucan'...



...or: The fking big billed mocking bird as I like to call it!

Every time I buy one, there is his painty, pointy, mocking face!! 'Youve just shelled out another £30'... he seems to cherp.

Your ink cartridge my not be a Tiger. But you will realise that epson's graphic design department have a warped sense of humor. I hope your Cheat-er lasts long than my f'in feathered friends!!

Oh God, what a dilemma.

I'm torn between posting the "Cool story, Bro" picture and making some big-cat based pun.

I don't understand his logic.. so he thinks it's a tiger... but he's going to call it a cheetah? I guess I should be thankful he managed to supply me with a printer and not a monitor or something.
