I know she isn't that bright (evil but not bright) so I had said that she could get me a joystick since that's pretty easy and I didn't really need a fancy one. Plus that would let her choose how much to spend since you can get cheap joysticks.
After a few attempts she had to call my wife back and ask where she could get one. She had gone to 10 different stores and she couldn't find one anywhere (I have no idea what stores she tried). So my wife said to try Best Buy, they would have several to choose from.
A couple of days later my wife got another call saying that my mother-in-law was just going to send a gift certificate. She said she went to Best Buy and looked all around but couldn't find anything. When she asked the clerk, he showed her something she calls a "Joy Ball" and said that's the only thing they had. I have no idea what store she actually went into, I have no idea what the "Joy Ball" was (she won't talk about it anymore even if I ask) but it just reinforced what a moron she is. And just to be fair, my wife thinks even less of her than I do! |
