Customer Disservice

Open source transcript

HELLO, YOU HAVE REACHED CUSTOMER DISSERVICE.

UM, YES, YOUR APP WON'T LET ME SIGN UP BECAUSE IT SAYS I ALREADY HAVE AN ACCOUNT.

AND IT WON'T LET ME RECOVER MY PASSWORD BECAUSE IT SAYS I DON'T HAVE AN ACCOUNT.

THAT'S BECAUSE YOU ACCIDENTALLY SELECTED THE "SCHROEDINGER'S CAT" ACCOUNT TYPE WHEN YOU SIGNED YOUR ACCOUNT EXISTS AND DOES NOT EXIST AT THE SAME TIME.

I'LL HAVE TO COLLAPSE THE QUANTUM WAVE FIELD TO FIX THAT.

IS THAT DANGEROUS?

IT COULD PLUNGE OUR UNIVERSE INTO AN ICY DEATH.

DON'T DO IT!

OKAY.

HAVE A NICE DAY.
