Chris: "Late at night -- well after their shifts end -- testosterone-crazed Geek Squad and Firedog employees meet in alleyways across the nation for dangerous games of chicken that all too often end in tragedy."
Paul: "Did you unplug it and then plug it back in? Look mom, I'm a little busy right now..."
Joe: "Geez... it's called multi-tasking!"
Darren: "Hey there Brad from Circuit City! About that job ad on Craigslist..."
Don: "But sir, the GPS said I was going the right way."
Sean: "Naw, really, I just scuffed up the paint on the bumper and lost the hubcap, the MRI disk is still secure."
Nilay: "Hello... is it possible to retroactively buy that $29.95 PRP plan?"
Josh F.: "So I think we figured out the problem with your laptop. Looks like someone dropped it."
[Thanks, DS]
I'm glad he's ok, holy shit
Nilay's caption was "Nilay: "Helllo... is it possible to retroactively buy that $29.995 PRP plan?""
If PRP is Product Replacement Plan, then he said "Helllo... is it possible to retroactively buy that $29.995 product replacement plan plan?"
I know, crazy stuff!
press any key... where's the any key?!
GeekSquad dude: Boss...the "Bug" is gone!
GEEkBoss: "Great...now return to the office I need the car"
"Yes, I've tried turning it off and on again."
And an even lamer one, that will get me Low Ranked in five seconds or less -
"Yes, I tried opening and closing Windows"
no I do not want to buy more printer ink
From: Best Buy Co. Inc.
To: All Geek Squad employees in United States an Canada
Subject: Recnet Accident
>This is a notice for all Geek Squad employees to let them know that The Volkswagen New Beetle's we use don't drive themselves yet.
Head office? It was John Casey's fault, I swear!
"I pressed the Escape Key after making sure the cupholder was still intact. Oh, that was after I crapped my pants."
Geek/Stuntman Squad
"i killed Sanjay!"
"Mom, I crashed my car...and I don't think my low level A+ certification is going to fix it!!"
Nice headline "PC fixer". I think they fix Macs too.
obviously you're not familiar with geek squad... they cant fix shit.
PC standards for Personal Computer, a category in which macs sit along side windows, linux, BSD etc based systems.
Would you seriously let them touch ANY technical device? Insane...
I dunno about the US stores, but Canadian BestBuy stores (and Future Shop, of course) don't do much with Macs beyond OS reinstalls; Apple warranty, BB/FS warranty, out of warranty all gets kicked to local Apple Authorized Repair Centers.
"Hello? Boss? Oh hey... uh yeah so ok I crashed it and I went to hit alt-ctrl-del like in the manual but I cant find alt-ctrl-del..................the what?...ohhhhhhhh.......crap....so doesnt restart my car then?"
"Hey, its Chad... my geek squad car was involved in an accident."
"You ordered a service plan, right?"
hah.. i love how everyone is just commenting little quotes.. genius... how the hell did he manage to flip it? i used to work for bestbuy.. non comission sales.. when i was in high school and college.. and the geeksquad guys then could and did fix a lot of stuff.. but yeah. some were complete retards with anything with a pug in...
I SWEAR, IT WAS SOME DUDE NAMED DIETRICH!
Good one ;).
Yes, the serial number on the bottom is...
"Sorry, my beetle runs on vista and it just crashed..."
"QUICK TO MY MOMZ BASEMENT"
GEEK SQUAD GUY!!!!
"i totaled the nerdwagon"
"that's fine. at least you were able to upload the video of the client taking a shower first, right?"
"Hello Volkswagen support? I think I may have installed my car upside down... yeah I'll hold."
"Thank you for calling the Depends undergarment support line. If you have just shit your pants, please press one now..."
maybe he was texting.
I LMAO'd.
What do you mean you are going to charge me just to look at it?
I see what the problem is, sir. You've got it in upside down. I can fix that.
maybe he was texting.
"It was like that when I got here."
NO KULTAR, WHAT DO YOU MEAN HAVE I TRIED TURNING IT OFF AND ON?
Kultar? Is he talking to aliens?
"--Sir, try pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL... That solves 90% of the crashes...'
Gaaaame Ovuur maaaan!!!!
Whats the story behind the picture?
And, fyi, the employees aren't evil... I once was an Agent, and most of us (myself included) worked to give the best solution to the customer. That's not to say that we did not try to make money! Simply that we weren't evil ^^
Management on the other hand... ahem.
I just like that they call themselves "Agents." I think they're taking this Chuck show a little too seriously.
Uh... Chuck came out in 2006, the Geek Squad started calling themselves agents in 1994.
RTFM!
"Sir, the Beatle has landed"
Paul's caption is f-ing gold. I couldn't possibly top that so I won't even try.
"I want to thank you for that anti-bug spray, it even gets the biggest beetles out of the trees."
Ok, I've gotten it to "Turn over", but it still wont start... Now what?
Hi, Volkswagen support? I have a small problem with a bug, and I can't seem to find ctrl-alt-del.....
No, I'm telling you I crashed while doing a backup.
