We laughed.
Do 11-year-olds really have lawyers?
His handwriting is pretty good, too.
Young man, if you really exist, we’re impressed for standing up for your consumer rights at so early an age. While the tone is juvenile, we appreciate the sentiment, although you should learn as you get older that while calling customer service people names might make you feel better, it’s not nice and it’s more than likely to encourage them to not solve your problem.
Dear Dumb Ass (An 11-Year-Old’s Note To Geek Squad) [Digg] (Thanks, Matt from MN!)
@SkokieGuy: I would be proud to have my non-existant 11-year old son write a letter like this. Have you seen the average writing skills of an 11-year old these days? We should be happy he didn’t write LOL every other sentence! While it’s not the best language for an 11 year old to use, let’s face it… there just aren’t any polite words to describe the mangled trainwreck which is best buy / geek squad customer service. Red Forman would be proud!
“although you should learn as you get older that while calling customer service people names might make you feel better, it’s not nice and it’s more than likely to encourage them to not solve your problem.”
I just came here to repeat that. Excellent point. The letter is great, and absolutely hilarious, but as a piece of persuasive writing, it’s not exactly high-school quality.
I blame the parents for (1) Raising such a brat and (2)Allowing this to get out of the kid’s hands. That kid needs a swift kick in the ass.
And what 11 year-old has $140?
How smart is it to call someone names/threaten them and then hand complete control over your computer to them?
