How May I Help You Today?

Good morning, Gibbers And Watts how may I help you today? Yes Sir I can help you with that. Have you had any thoughts on how you would like to be killed? Ok yes so like an accident? We do have a couple of offers on at the moment. We can do an industrial accident with a mention on the six o'clock news, or for slightly more money we can murder you with a full reconstruction on prime time television and a feature on the news. Yes Sir, we have a full range of ways we can kill you and all at competitive prices. Certainly, I can send you a brochure and then you can talk to one of our advisors. Can I take your name and address and I will send a brochure out to you… Thank you for calling, enjoy the rest of your day. Good Morning, Gibbers And Watts how may I help you today?

This one reminds me of those suicide booths in Futurama, you put your money in, and it asks if you would like a quick death or a slow and painful one, all said and done in a completely matter of fact way, perhaps we are heading that way or already there Clive, such is life! love the indifferent sarcasm in this one, cheers David

Hi David, I wrote it a few years ago and forgot about it, found it the other day and yes, I was amused by its matter of fact way as you say, absolutely, indifferent sarcasm, thanks for reading
