Seriously Funny Quotes

From Family Guy:

Chris: What do you do at a Young Republicans meeting?
Alyssa: We help those who already have the means to help themselves. Also, we perpetuate the idea that Jesus chose America to destroy non-believers and brown people.
Chris: I don't know why, but I feel safer already.

A very attractive girl

...in the TV commercial for an insurance company says "Call me for a free quote."

What, exactly, is a free quote? Are some insurance companies charging for a quote? Imagine this concept applied to other businesses...

You walk into a candy store, browse around for a minute and then ask:

"How much per pound are these?"

The crotchety, old man says "$8.99".

You say "Thanks" and look around a bit more. You don't see anything that interests you, so you walk toward the door.

"Ahem...that'll be 45 cents, please!"

You're in the dentist's chair and you mention you've been thinking about getting veneers. He reaches into a drawer and shows you photos of clients who got the work done and gives you a ball park figure. He adds $35 to your invoice.

Next, I'm going to research how much companies who do not give "a free gift" charge for their gifts.
