My friend asked me to have a look at his printer yesterday, it was jamming and would not print anything and kept spitting the paper back into the feeder. So I try a couple of test prints, sure enough the paper would start to feed through, jam, then spit back out. I open up the printer to see if there's anything stuck, and at first I couldn't see anything so I tried it again, same thing. I open the printer again, and see a flicker of movement inside it - there was a freaking mouse running around inside it under the scanner light. The bloody thing had built a nest in there.
What cracked me up was Jon and his buddy Kyle's reaction to this...
Me: There's a fucking mouse in there!!!!
Kyle: I don't see a mouse.
Jon: There is not.
Me: There fucking is!!
Jon: Yeah, right. Let me see. (Pushes my chair aside.)
Jon looks in, doesn't see the mouse - then all of a sudden the mouse scurries out and across the desk. I've never seen two grown men move so fast or screech so loudly. You'd think a fucking great tiger had jumped out at them the way they reacted. I was waiting for them to jump up on chairs and shriek like in the cartoons.
