“You just bought a 36-pack of batteries. Have you considered buying more batteries from us?” I just bought them! In large quantities so I don’t have to buy them again for a very long time! Why does any company think this type of email is a good idea?
I was not expecting Daleks to pop up in the season 2 premiere of MacGyver (the original)! 😂 They even shoot laser beams and talk about eliminating people.
