The Onion: Friend Buys Computer Just Like That

[gristy]

From www.theonion.com - pretty funny.

KANSAS CITY, MO - Account executive Jeremy Trask, 33, entered a local Best Buy Sunday, shopped for approximately 20 minutes, and bought a brand-new laptop computer right off the shelf, "like it was a bag of pretzels," Trask's friend Paul Cheng said Monday.

"I didn't even know Jeremy was in the market for a computer," Cheng said, still reeling from Sunday's events. "We were on the west side of town, and he asked if I wanted to stop in at the Best Buy. I thought maybe we'd buy some CDs or look at the plasma-screen televisions, but, next thing I know, he's dropping $1,200 on a laptop."
