Dec. 8th, 2003 08:45 amOne of my quasi-pet theories was verified this morning at the petrol station as I was buying sandwiches for lunch.
Customer: The paper towels have run out.
Attendant: We can't do anything about it, the [computer] systems down.
The theory being that given half a chance people will blame computers before anything else. I personally would have thought that using the phone to ask for some more towels would have been the solution, but obviously I'm quite deluded.
Anyway; A good weekend of dancing, shopping and drunkenness. Huzah.
Frost everywhere; it looks like the whole world is an iced cake, mmmm.
