204: Boycott AOL

[soulDistortion]

Here's a fun fact: mice don't like to wear fire.



Especially after you freeze their legs using those cans of compressed air sold in computer stores for the purpose of cleaning keyboards.

Incidentally, I live not too far from the PETA headquarters, and the local media gives them the coverage that those attention-whoring fuckoffs deserve: which is little to none. This is why they try to solicit donations from gullible rich idiots, because regular people know better than to give money to those crazed shits.

Fuck them.

3) Try to stay calm, and ask for a supervisor (if they don't put you through to one demand it).

3a) If they still refuse, calmly state that you wish to speak to a supervisor and if they can't put you through to one imediatly, you will be forced to file a lawsuit to get this settled in which the rep will be forced to testify and this conversation has been recorded, so please let me speak to a supervisor.

3b) If you get a supervisor. Don't back down. Get the full name. Demand a full refund.

The best thing is to try and stay calm. From my experience in Cust. Service, I would always shut down if someone was yelling and screaming (and these phone reps are much worse than store ones cause you arn't right there).

But def. record it all.

Wow you got the name Chemda but none of the Israeli arguing/"negotiating" skills, huh? You should have AOL sending you refund checks by now. yalla, tidchafi

I live in Australia and this is how we deal with our rodent worries. What you do is you get a ledge and place a wine bottle on the edge of it. You then get a piece of cheese or bread and nail it to the end of the wine bottle. Next, grease up the neck of the bottle so any mouse climbing across slips before they get to the cheese. The little buggers are pretty dumb and will even try again if they fall the first time. They're kinda like lemmings. Simply place a bucket of water for them to fall into under the bottle neck. Seeing as the little bastards cant doggy paddle forever they drown eventually. I'm Pretty sure the faint splash in the night would put a smile on Keith's face. The great thing is that you never have to buy another trap again, reset any traps or handle any dead mice.

Cheers

isnt your country overrun with frogs? and not the french kind. if this is how you are trying to kill those, i see why you are overrun.

Frogs are a different issue . What you do to stop frogs is go golfing. For everyone that doesnt know; Nothern Australia has a large problem with Cane toads. They're a poisonous ugly frog about the size CD and native animals eat them. Subsequently the animals die of poisoning. They're everywhere and a real pest. So, what you do is grab your 1 wood, go around you're whole backyard (about size of a football feild) and tee off with every frog you can find. Who needs movie theatres when you have toads? Gotta love this country of mine.

Cheers

Cool, I guess I don't have to donate (again) since Keith and Chemda already gave me a shout out on the show ... or should I say they ripped me a new asshole ... Yes, that's right .... I am the Kevin who wrote the letter about the mouse!

But like I said in my letter, KATG are probably not famous enough yet for PETA to want to bother with them, although it might help if Chemda started wearing fur.

Anyway, PETA is not the point. The point is that I happen to think Keith is wrong on this, and am willing to put my opinion out there and stand by it, even though I know that I will be shredded much more inhumanely on this forum than any mouse ever would be.

And by the way, I am not fat, nor even overweight. Why? Because when I relocate mice from my house, I walk! You lazy fucks!

[germuhknee]

If there are any cute (female) animal rights activists on this board, message me and we will meet somewhere cozy and have a Save-Keith's-Mice strategic planning session. We might have to do some role playing: you'll play the poor defenceless mouse, and I'll be evil Keith with my bondage equipment, er, I mean mouse traps.

here's how to get rid of a mouse and have fun....


catch it on the sticky trap, then drop bleach on it from an eye dropper and watch it squirm as it dies

ironic is the word.

unfortunately, people who cannot speak the the english language, get these errors through lexicographers and into dictionaries as 'possible alterations' even though they make no sense.


example: if you steal something from someone, you burgle them...

americans, however, choose to say you 'burglarize' them - in that you carry out the act of burgling someone... that is, you carry out the act of carrying out the act of stealing from someone. Once again, redundant, but most american dictionaries will have it.

Chemda was right in saying that it's not a word because technically and traditionally its not.

Irregardless of what you wrote above, ironical is a word. So you and Chemda are wrong, but thanks for the ridiculous explanation that is obviously not based in reality
