The Silly category

I gnome that guy.
I was wondering if we could include stories of anonymous clients, customers, suppliers, reps, bosses, co-workers' boo boo's, muck ups, unconvincing stories and the like ? Among the members there would be some silly stories. No names or identifiers mentioned.
Like eg.: A customer 'sunk' his pwc in a muddy local river, tied to a jetty overnight, apparently. He wanted new everything inside, on insurance cover. On inspection, no sign of somewhere the water could enter; the water inside (when on its trailer), was crystal clear in every component flooded. All cleared of water it started immediately, everything fully functional, couple of oil changes and he got it back as is, pretty much. He put the garden hose in it to flood it all for nothing, but a clean pwc.

 

Good stories welcome

 

ICE stands for a system that uses water, but for cold weather. There is a conspiracy by Big Oil to suppress all information on carburetors that run on H2O.

 

Ice Created Energy (I.C.E.) don't you just love acronyms that have the word they spell out as one of their words?

It's really a thing.

I'm sure some customers I deal with are more familiar with a different type of ice, before they use their internal combustion engine.

 

I.C.E. on the rocks.

Better make sure to have ID with you.
