Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for September 16, 2022

She clicked “accept” without reading the agreement.

All subscriptions run out at midnight – unless otherwise stated or negotiated and prepaid.

I’m surprised she’s still dressed like a princess. I’d have expected her clothes to turn to rags

A dismaying trend

Who is he supposed to be the hairy godfather

I just want to see it in some fantasy MMO RPG :D

Isn’t she supposed to be riding IN the coach?

It’s all about the duration of autonomy …

No yoke or shaft… cartoon physics!

Don’t you just hate it when that happens?

It’s getting to that time of year…..

I guess that this is where Wiz asks for more money.

Surprised she didn’t get 67 messages “Ye olde warranty expireth”.

No one has mentioned that the spell traditionally wears off at midnight.

This is why you should pay attention to such things!

How about a courtesy call wiz!? Oh yeah. I block spam. My bad.

You can renew your subscription, the cost was $39.95, but that was yesterday. Today with inflation it will be $49.95. Sorry that will be $54.21.

Subscription? or prescription?…

That’s what happens when you don’t look at the junk mail.

Whooo knew?

Now let’s discuss your extended warranty…

And the price has just doubled….

My 2018 laptop computer’s 1 year trial subscription of Microsoft Office (non-professional) expired. Now I can’t edit existing documents unless I mail them to an Android device. It would be cheaper to buy a new laptop than pay a 1 year subscription.

Why didn’t you send her a renewal notice?

I thought her maintenance contract ran out

Funny!

These days there would be an automatic renewal and you’d have to drill down 20 web pages and wait an hour on a customer service call to cancel.

Always remember when the 7-day free trial ends.

I had this problem with Peacock (on cable) who had advertised that some shows were available for free until April, and I had watched several, took a break, and last night it would not work at all. So I watched a show on Netflix. I wasn’t going to make phone calls for hours at night. It might just be easier to pay for it, which is probably what they want. I had planned to anyway, but when I got the free offer, I decided to go with it. The formatting is pretty bad, though.

Wizard, now is the perfect time to tell her about how she should have purchased and Extended Coach Warranty.

Good thing she wasn’t inside the coach.

She managed to sign up for a subscription that didn’t auto-renew?!?
