True pizza stories. 'How many slices does the medium have?' '8, but if you're really hungry we can cut it into 12.'.

The other one is: 'Half pepperoni, half sausage.' 'Which half do you want the pepperoni on, right or left?'

And my favorite: The little red pepper packets come in a cardboard box about 8" square. It's labeled, 'Crushed Red Pepper'. On top of the box it says, 'Do Not Crush'.

An irate customer called and demanded that we come and remove the uninterpretable power supply attached to the computer because every time it started beeping, the power went out!

That would be uninterruptible. How does one interpret a power supply?

Are you walking among us?

Here's another one. This actually happened twice. There was a coupon for 2 medium pizzas and 2 liters of Coke. I get there, hand them the 2 liter, and they said, 'Wait... There's supposed to be two.' 'Yeah, I have 2 pizzas right here.' 'No, there should be two. Liters.'

I actually had to show them the label on the bottle that says '2 Liters'.

My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the cases were discounted 10%.

I don't know why this guy didn't go back, buy 10 cases and have her multiply 10% by 10.

Then there's the one who had a coupon for a large 1 topping and cinnastix for $9.99.

'I want pepperoni, ham, Canadian bacon, mushrooms, sausage, onions, jalapenos, hamburger, bell pepper, extra cheese, olives, pepperoni, and Canadian bacon. Two dozen Buffalo wings, cheese sticks, and a twelve pack of Pepsi.'
'Okay, that'll be $42.47. Is this cash, check or charge?'
'WAAAIITAMINUTE!!! THIS SAYS $9.99!!!!'

Was surfing once in Malibu and kept falling off the board. One surfer just kept laughing at us. One of our party said to him: "you'll have to forgive us, we're from Missouri, we don't do this very often". He looked at us puzzled and then came those incredible words: "Don't you guys have an ocean back there?".

They surf among us.

Aparently I'm limping among us. I did that myself, with spell check supplying the means.

Several years ago, I was making a charge purchase. The clerk looked at my credit card and told me I'd have to sign it. I did. She then presented me with the charge receipt and indicated where I was to sign it. I did. At that point, she called over a supervisor to compare and confirm my signatures. Yes, indeed, they do walk among us! :)

Cute, even if the last one is a variation on a Yogi-ism.
