Customer: “Hi, I have a question.”
Me: “Yes?”
Customer: “What colonoscopy caps do you carry?”
Me: “Pardon?”
Customer: “What colonoscopy caps do you carry?”
Me: “Um… I’m sorry, could you repeat that?”
Customer: “I want to know what colonoscopy caps you carry.”
Me: “I… I don’t think we carry colonoscopy caps.”
Customer: “Argh, no!” [through clenched teeth and what I suddenly realize is an Australian accent] “What. Color. Nasty. Pig. Caps. Do. You. Carry?”

PS: We were out of the color he wanted (which thank Zeus and Jesus wasn’t brown).
