Fill out an application for Hollywood Video or Staples (if you want to try it out, you can use store #0434).
After recently reading Eats, Shoots & Leaves, some of the questions made us laugh hysterically for minutes on end,
For example, this question really should have a hyphen between "shoving" and "matches" because the way its broken up is just too easy to misinterpret...
And, of course, on the heels of the one above, we had to figure out if this one was about a fat store-owner or the owner of a prosperous business...
Other questions just kind of gave you a general feeling of WTF?!
This is even better than mad libs. Really.

If you were a large store owner and you found out that an employee had stolen merchandise from you, would you fire him if the total amount taken was worth less than:
- $5.00 in one year?
- $10.00 in one year?
- $25.00 in one year?
Other questions just kind of gave you a general feeling of WTF?!
What is the total value of merchandise and/or cash you have taken without authorization from all your employers in the past five years?
- $0
- Less than $10.00
- Between $10.00 and $25.00
- Between $25.01 and $100.00
- Between $100.01 and $500.00
- Between $500.01 and $1,000.00
- More than $1,000.00
This is even better than mad libs. Really.
