Mujibar was trying to get into the USA legally through Immigration.
The Officer said, "Mujibar, you have passed all the tests, except there is one more test. Unless you pass it, you cannot enter the United States of America"
Mujibar said, "I am ready."
The Officer said, "Make a sentence using the words Yellow, Pink and Green."
Mujibar thought for a few minutes and said, "Mister Officer, I am ready."
The Officer said, "Go ahead."
Mujibar said, "The telephone goes green, green, green, and I pink it up, and say, 'Yellow, this is Mujibar.' "
Mujibar now lives in a neighborhood near you and works at a Verizon Help Desk. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

I don't know even where to begin. I work in a call centre for a satellite company, and some of the funniest lines:
Me: Ok, can you turn the receiver back on?
Customer: How do I do that?
Me: uhhhh... how do you normally turn it on?
Customer: I dunno.
Me: Do you turn it on yourself?
Customer(a little pissed): Yes!
Me: Then do what you normally do when you wanna watch tv.
Customer: Ok, lemme turn it on, hold on a second.
Customer: The single on my disk is low, whats wrong?
Me: Can you see any snow or ice on your dish?
Customer: Oh, my dish has fallen off my house. Could that be whats wrong?
Just my two cents
