If you really want to treat them the way the government treats people, I think it would go more like this: "Well, sure, you can apply to get the device back. Just file a form 227/b for re-requisition of government equipment. You'll need a Title 27 indicating your ownership of the equipment, FOIA cover sheet showing the fund it came from, and a copy of your latest tax return. Your wife's too, unless you've filed a 'Notice of Non-Support' as of July 7, 2007. Then I'll need an environmental impact statement showing the potential effects of disposal, especially the battery. Once you send all that in, we will review your request within 180 days. If your request is denied, we'll notify you within 90 days, at which point you can file a Request for Reconsideration provided it's signed by a licensed spy." (Of course, in practicality, a lawyer is all much better at this than we are; no one is better at gumming up the works.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lurch 0 #27 October 10, 2010 I just got oneupped with STYLE. Epic, Bill. Thats exactly the effect I'd be going for. Laughing my ass off. Flawless governmentspeak. Normally I don't consider it polite or ethical to derive pleasure from the frustration of others. But for these arrogant pricks, I'd make an exception. -BLive and learn... or die, and teach by example. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, if Control could do it back in the 60's, doing it now has got to be so easy.
