“Pay up your bank loan, or else!!”

From Not Always Right: The Pen Is Mightier Than The Tantrum

I am in line behind this guy at the drive-thru bank. He’s driving an expensive luxury car.

Customer: “I’m making a deposit.”

The teller starts writing something down as he works.

Customer: “That’s a nice pen. Can I have it?”

Teller: “No. It’s mine.”

Customer: “Fine. Then I am coming inside and taking all of the money out of all of my accounts.”

And he screeches around the corner, parks in the disabled bay, and marches in. I am now speaking to the teller.

Me: “Did that really just happen?”

Teller: “This is a Mont Blanc given to me by my now-passed grandmother. I never let this out of my sight.”

Me: “Yeah, it was crazy of him to ask for that. Is he really closing all his accounts?”

Teller: “It looks like it! My manager looks happy; we’ve been trying to lose this jerk for years.”

(Mont Blanc pens range in price from $270 to $3270)

My bank app was just updated. Now it won’t run on my old android OS.

Loretta may be about to commit a Roughing the Husband penalty.

. . . and I just called my last Time Out . . .

Eh, two minutes is plenty of time.

TV timeout?

FOUL.

Just set the device down and back away slowly…

Haha! (＾▽＾) Doubt it means anything good!
