It’ll Still Be Two Days ’Til I Say I’m Sorry

Actually, I’m not going to apologize at all. This dumb joke makes me laugh and laugh.

Last month, I found myself making a purchase from Groupon. I know, I was as surprised as anyone that the company even still existed. Seeking out a discounted version of Microsoft Office led me to that relic of the past, where a possibly trustworthy third-party named “2Go Software” was selling seemingly legitimate software licenses for Office. I successfully purchased, got the software set up, and went on my way.

Seven days later, 2Go sent me what is without a doubt the worst Barenaked Ladies cover I have ever received via email:

A message reading “Hi Paul K, It's been one week since you received your Microsoft Office 2024 Home & Business (Mac) license. We wanted to check in and make sure you've been able to install and activate your software successfully.”

I encourage you to attempt singing this yourself.
