Who writes this stuff?

From Funny

I was wandering through the BYU Bookstore a couple of months ago, and someone pointed this book out to me and I thought it was funny enough to take a photo of.

Now that I take a second look at the photo, it seems less amusing now then when I first saw the book.  I guess there must have been more context when I saw it the first time.  Or, I was in a really funny mood.

BYU Bookstore DVD Rentals

Posted in Bloggingon Jan 18, 2006

Dear BYU Bookstore,

Thank you for providing a great service to BYU students by offering video rentals of great movies. I would like to ask, however, that you lower your price on DVD rentals. I think the price should be lowered from $1.29 to $0.99 or less. This would be more in line with other DVD rental trends. There are automated DVD rental machines popping up all over the place, at McDonald’s restaurants and near supermarkets such as Macey’s. These machines offer rentals for only $1, and offer some of the most popular new releases.

You currently offer VHS rentals for $0.49. This is a great price. However, in these days when DVD players are more common than VHS players, and DVD prices for movies are very similar to the VHS price, the rental prices for DVD should be closer to the rental prices for VHS movies.
