Having Fun with Y2K

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the really-really-funny dept.

CDS writes "Fade to Black comedy magazine has a hilarious story on the Y2K problem. Michael Page, the main man @ F2B, e-mails several companies asking if their products (such as Haagen-Dazs, Oil of Olay, and Elmer's Glue) are Y2K compliant. Funny Stuff. " I laughed. I cried. It was better then "Cats". Warning: Some of the material is offensive. To someone. I think.

  2. To bad they forgot Nike by rw2 · · Score: 4

    Dear Nike,

    I'm growing more worried by the day about the catastrophy looming in our immediate future. I'm referring, of course, to Y2K.

    I'm a functionally illiterate jock, as witnessed by my dictation (huh-huh, I said dictation), of this letter to my coach. So I'm quite concerned about whether or not I will still be able to play football in a few weeks.

    You see, if I were not able to hang out with other naked guys and flex for the girls that I was planning to slip a mickey to I don't know what I would do all weekend.

    Please make this problem go away.

    Please.

    ...are Y2K compliant. They even say YKK on them. I think they even said that 10 years ago. Finally, an industry with foresight!

  4. They forgot KY Jelly by hedgehog_uk · · Score: 5

    KY Jelly is not Y2K compliant. A new product will be launched for the millennium - Y2KY Jelly - which allows you four digits in your date instead of two.
