  1. Oh lawd… I’m having flashbacks to my time working in Hell, AKA the Airport Rent-A-Car Counter.

    One of my coworkers was nuts. Well, they were all nuts, but this particular lady was probably certifiably insane. Among her many “quirks” was a visceral, deep-seated hatred for Progressive Insurance, and that hatred extended to each and every customer who had Progressive auto insurance.

    Why?

    Because of Flo. Specifically, because of Ms. Courtney. According to my coworker, Ms. Courtney had been a waitress before she’d been discovered by a casting agent (I’ve since looked it up, and that story appears to be false) and is now earning millions of dollars making short, silly commercials, and it’s not fair because SHE (my coworker) spent years and years and years working as a waitress and no talent agent ever found her, and she’s prettier and friendlier and perkier than Flo!

    Yeah…I exercised a bit of discretion and didn’t point out that Ms. Courtney a) was at least half my coworker’s age, b) didn’t look like a corpse wearing clown makeup (seriously, she wore lipstick thick enough to give Buttons the Clown a run for his money), c) probably didn’t constantly bitch and moan about how awful everything was, and d) almost certainly isn’t nuttier than squirrel shit.

  2. Courtney looks like the average soccer Mom that goes unnoticed at the supermarket.

    I wouldn’t buy the insurance that she hawks but good luck to her. grab that golden ring and don’t squander the money. Fame is fleeting
