Q: I saw that Apple revamped its Hot Deals page and I was noticing that there are some really hot deals on that page.
A: Uh… yeah.
Q: I’m thinking I’m going to get a 17-inch iMac and one of the MacBooks. I also might get a 20-inch iMac. And MacBook Pro. And maybe a PowerBook.
A: That sounds like kind of a lot.
Q: I don’t think 47 is a lot.
A: 47? You have a problem.
Q: No I don’t. I can quit buying Macs any time I want.
A: You’re a Macaholic.
Q: No I’m not!
A: Yes you are.
Q: No!
A: You’re only fooling yourself.
Q: I… I…
A: Come on. Let it out.
Q: My mother didn’t breast feed me! I buy Macs to fill the void! Waaaah!
A: Tsk. Weird. It always gets back to breast feeding. All the big Mac buyers have breast feeding issues.


Q: I just heard that previous call and I’m calling to complain.
A: Oh. Too creepy?
Q: No! That was Todd! I’m Todd’s mother! And I just want everyone to know that I did breast feed him!
A: Uh…
Q: I breast fed the hell out of him! And this is the thanks I get?!
A: Well, uh, he…
Q: For years I’ve given and given and given for nothing! I gave up all my hopes and dreams!
A: Oh. That’s too…
Q: So, excuse me if I sneak out of the house and buy myself a couple of Macs every week to make me feel like a whole woman again!
A: Ah… huh.
Q: What’s that supposed to mean?! You think my son is a Macaholic because I am?!
A: I’m… going to hang up now.
Q: Oooh, sure[click]


Q: Hi.
A: Oh. Hi.
Q: I’m the previous caller’s husband. And the father of the first caller.
A: Oh.
Q: Yeah.
A: OK.
Q: So… it’s probably not surprising that I have a couple-of-Macs-a-day habit.
A: Not so much.
Q: Mmm. Yeah.
A: Phew.
Q: I’m also an alcoholic.
A: Oh. Of course you are.
