OT - Hail Storm

[J T]

A troll was driving home after work, and got caught in a really bad hailstorm. Its car was covered with dents, so the next day it took it to the repair shop.

The shop owner saw that it was a troll, so he decided to have some fun. He told it just to go home and blow into the tail pipe really hard, and all the dents would pop out.

So, the troll went home, got down on its hands and knees and started blowing into the car's tailpipe. Nothing happened. It blew a little harder, and still nothing happened. Its roommate, another troll, came home and said, "What are you doing?" The first troll told it how the repairman had instructed it to blow into the tailpipe in order to get all the dents to pop out. Its roommate rolled its eyes and said... "HELLLLOWW .. You gotta roll up the windowwwws..."

This MUST be a blonde joke.

This kind of trollophobic behavior simply must stop!

Are you without any sensitivity whatsoever !?!

Think how poor Davey Eisan will fee when he reads this!

No. It USTA be a blonde joke. But since I've met some really intelligent blondes, but never seen a troll that wasnt't a total dork, it just seemed the right thing to do.

Hey, I am very sensitive. In fact, I have sensitivity I've never even used, and probably never will.

Plus, you don't get a whole bunch of angry letters from tr...., wait a minute, yes you do, but then you'd get a whole bunch of angry letters from trolls regardless. You're right, net loss is zero.

We could maybe go in together? I've apparently got some of this "tact" stuff that I'm not using.

Hey, yeah. I've got a bunch of that I'll never use.

It doesn't sell well. Mostly because only partially-filled containers are ever offered. It seems that sellers consistently respond incorrectly to the caution that "it would not be tact-full" to do this thing.

As for the _original_ idea, the "packaging" is wrong there, too. You do much better soaking long (say 8"-ish) thin sticks in it, and letting them dry. Then the customers simply ignite said stick, and bask in the fumes therefrom -- when they're feeling "in-sense-itive", that is.

[Dave Hinz]

I assure you, mine is rarely if ever used. Ask around. The container would definately be full of it.

Hm. Maybe some sort of disclaimer.

Yes, but what kind of (checks newsgroup) wood then?

AHA! Make it out of poison ivy, and that'll definately improve their sensitivity. Might want another disclaimer, though.
