'Shut your head and be pheasant'A friend of Rufus writesPublished Friday 22nd June 2007 09:30 GMT FoTW It appears that the now-legendary Rufus - he of Gadspot.com's battling tech support who called one customer a "a pain in the butt" then reserved the right to "server" him "for being mean" - has has become a torchbearer for obstreperous dictionary-dodgers worldwide. Yes indeed, try this anonymous recent comment to our original story, which displays the same command of the English language which has now guaranteed Rufus a place in net history:
Magnificent. We feel it's only a matter of time before "shut your head and be pheasant" makes it onto some form of apparel, which is exactly what happened to Rufus's words of wisdom - now available on limited edition boxer shorts and thongs. For the record, the chap who knocked up this tech-support underwear says he'll donate all proceeds to the war on cancer. Some good has come of this lamentable tale. ® BootnoteRufus's own input to the debate can be found here. 11 comments posted — Comment period finished lmaoPosted: 10:04 22nd June 2007 A Marvel...Posted: 12:11 22nd June 2007 Addicting?Posted: 12:28 22nd June 2007 An old tongue twisterPosted: 12:59 22nd June 2007 Clothing LinePosted: 13:46 22nd June 2007
