Apricots

Today I bought an apricot. But I wish it was an orange, because I really don’t want an apricot, I want an orange. I am now totally frustrated, because I have been looking absolutely everywhere on the apricot’s site for directions on how to change the apricot to an orange, but I can’t find that anywhere.

I know that the site describes itself as an apricot company, and I understand that most of the apricot company’s customers want an apricot, but if the apricot company really, really, really cared about all of its customers, they would let me, personally, change the apricot into an orange. Because what I really want is an orange, not an apricot. Instead they make me waste all this time on apricots. I hate apricots.

I can only conclude that the apricot company is not fit for purpose as an orange company, unlike the orange company. The orange company is better, totally awesome as an orange company. But I don’t use them because they don’t actually have very many oranges. Unlike the apricot company, which has many apricots, but no oranges.

Maybe it will help if I explain that I want the apricots to be oranges. A correct algorithm would turn my apricots into oranges.

PS. I don’t like apricots.

PPS. I still don’t like apricots.

PPPS. They aren’t even good apricots anyway.

Wrong metaphor. Tadpoles and frogs is a better one. And you’d expect a shop that raises tadpoles to also have some (ideas about how to keep) frogs right?
