This Actually Happened.
- Client:
I kinda want to name our printers after Tribe Called Quest members. Any objections?
- Me:
Nope. I don't have a problem with that at all.
- Me:
You're going to have to spell out Questlove, though. ?love won't work as ? is a reserved character.
- Client:
Sweet. We don't have many. I was thinking the following: Large Phaser - Qtip; Redacted's Officejet - Phife Dawg; Redacted's - Redacted's Phaser; Mine - Jarobi;
- Me:
Redacted doesn't want Questlove? Man, I thought he was cool like dat.
- Client:
Was Questlove part of the Tribe? Isn't he the guy with the fro from the Roots?
- Client:
We can make Redacted's Questlove.
- Me:
Wikipedia says I'm wrong and that Questlove was never a member of Tribe Called Quest. I stand corrected. His could be Ali Shaheed Muhammad, the producer, but people might ask questions
- Client:
Ok, mine Shaheed, Redacted's as Jarobi.
- Me:
Sounds good.
