And when I have to deal with an idiot, I'll sigh, reach over, and take down all the numbers leaving a "0".
If I'm lucky, the person who is the idiot will be so offended they will never return...

"What do you mean?"
"If I sold you a mod chip, then you would never buy a game from me ever again. And that would be very much in opposition to my being able to run a profitable business."
"I just want one to play copied games."
"What? Do I look like an idiot? What the hell did you think I thought you wanted it for?"
"err…"
"Exactly. Now look, if I were to sell you a mod chip I would lose you as a customer. Now, if I were going to lose you as a customer I'd rather do it on a high note like setting you on fire. At least then I would have some satisfaction of a job well done."
"I'm leaving!"
"But I haven't set you on fire yet!"
