Frkkn Frist!
Admin
Frkkn?
Admin
Dismis sounds like new commenting/chat service, particularly designed for registering complaints. Users can type out their comments or complaints, but the business/author dismisses them out of hand.
Admin
Don't get the Arsenal one, it looks like there was a huge quantity of something on the order and that's been partially hidden.
Admin
Why do you say that the photo is un-Lenovian?
Admin
OK, perhaps, but a hundred and seventy billion dollars' worth of something ???
Admin
Looks like the quantity would be like 7 or 8 digits?
Admin
re: Lenovo Not to Dis you Mis, but be careful with that coffee!
Admin
Just another "off-by-one"... "hundred-seventy-two billion" error
Admin
Dismis probably is the web's equivalent of a "your opinions and suggestions welcome" mailbox whose bottom contains a slide leading to a paper shredder... "Please enter your complaints and comments which will be properly investigated and then dismissed." But please don't dismis on chrismis, because that's a big disgris.
Admin
Most likely a huge quantity of stupid in a misread per-unit price. This is Error'd after all.
Admin
I think there were 10 digits. The phone number got put in the quantity field (which also explains why it was redacted). 575 is the area code for New Mexico.
If someone knew the price for "1 Phone + Arsenal Mount", it would be trivial to calculate the original number.
Admin
You can’t purchase that “Phone + Arsenal Mount” for all the money in the known universe, but in case you still want to buy it, here’s the invoice.
Admin
Never mind. It’s not that much money.
Admin
Thanks Wobble, I now know Wayne's phone number! I'm going to skulk in a corner and be evil..
Admin
Oh that makes sense. The word "phone" is even showing right there in the screenshot. I wonder if the submitter's browser, at least on the iPad, might have autofilled what it thought was a phone number field?
