Dear Epson,

I recently purchased one of your printers with some green rectangles from my wallet. This is normally how I go about purchasing things. Cashiers everywhere do not call security and just accept my silly green rectangles! Sometimes I also give them metal circles. What fools!

Anyway, I opened the box and unwrapped the printer and the things it came with. I was perplexed as to why you would package this printer with four flavors of juice, but then I figured it was a way to tell customers, “Hey, thanks for buying Epson. Kick back, enjoy this juice, and watch it print like a madman!”

It is not juice. I discovered this on page 41 of the instruction manual, which I needed to read to find out where to put the white rectangles I want to put words on.

I quote: “Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.” Ink? I didn’t think there was any.

I was wondering why I couldn’t put words on those white rectangles.

Then it dawned on me! I drank ink, not juice. I now know I was not supposed to do this. Although I must say, the blueberry one was delicious, as was the lemon, but raspberry and blackberry were quite bitter.

Now I’m afraid I don’t feel too well. I was wondering what I should do to keep myself from becoming violently ill. I am aware that I transgressed the Laws of Epson clearly stated in page 41 of the Epson Bible, but I need you to tell me the antidote. Is it printer cleaning solution? Please help!

 

Uuuuuurrrrrrrgggghhhh,

Kevin Dickinson
