morons

[109]

диалог со службой поддержки хостинга, только что (verbatim copy, me = me, mo = moron):

me: I have a question about unlimited disk space
mo: yes
me: so what's the limit? it can't be really unlimited
mo: it is really unlimited
me: so 500 GB is not a problem?
mo: Can you please be more specific?
me: Yes. I need to host really big database. 500 GB.
mo: It is not possible.
me: So it would be best for all of us if you just define the limits upfront.
mo: WE OFFER A 30-DAYS MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE.
me: IF 500 GB IS NOT POSSIBLE, HOW MUCH IS POSSIBLE? WHAT IS THE LIMIT?
mo: I'm afraid I can't confirm this right now
