A man drove his car right up to the front door of a car sales company, and asked that whoever had sold this car to him should come out. And when that salesman came out, the driver screamed at him, saying he cheated him and that he made trouble. So the salesman said, “What's wrong? Everything is OK with your car, no?”

“No! Not everything is OK! I bought this junk on the understanding that it was going to give me good performance, but it only gets to 110 uphill! 110 uphill is terrible; that's not what I wanted!”

So the salesman said, “Excuse me, sir, but I must tell you that 110 uphill is very impressive for a car of this kind.”

“Impressive! You call that impressive? I live at 136!”
