I deal with all types of people for websites and what not.
A local large multi-brand dealership sent me this for their coupon page:
Now, if you can still see to read this you can understand the crap I deal with daily.
Just had to share.

ughly and confusing, yay. Doesn’t a brake inspection come with a NYS inspection or are the brakes not important enough to inspect in NY? I know in virginia it’s one of the things they inspect…

Yeah, they do inspect them to see that they work but they don’t generally take them off and put them back on from what I understand. But, honestly, it doesn’t seem to me to be a huge savings or advantage.

More like it reaches right out of the screen and plucks your eyeballs from their sockets, wrenching the connective nerves and tissue into a twisted throbbing mess. Sadly, a number of my colleagues communicate in a very similar way with the spoken or written word. Strange but true.

We should have a contest to see who can make the worst advert along these lines.
PS: don’t drink at a work party and go back to work… typing is hard.

As an aside, I think that ad is illegal. NYS mandates the price for an inspection (at least down here in the city) and the inspection station MUST charge that amount, no more, no less (to prevent shoddy inspections). So, advertising a 1/2 price inspection is probably illegal.

So that’s how the patent trolls manage to patent the obvious?

Yeah, it was a patent society party. And no, no work was being done for the hour I sat at my desk afterwards to sober up. Huh, the add is illegal eh? that’s funny.
