Stuck in the RPG loop. Dealing with people about my wedding.

I'm getting married in the same spot as the reception. I wanted to take my new bride on a quick carriage ride through downtown between the two, to allow everyone time to shuffle over to the reception, take a piss and get a drink. So I called and asked how much it would cost to do so. Then I felt like when you were playing Final Fantasy and you can't figure out where the next bad guy is and you keep asking in town, but all anyone can say is the same thing, so no matter what you try they always say something like "It was terrible, they carried Anna away." and you're all like "Sir, which way did they run, where have these villains vanished to?" and he says "It was terrible, they carried Anna away." "Where sir, Where?!!! For the love of your daughter, just give me a direction. Are you blind sir?! Is that it?" "It was terrible, they carried Anna away." "Well I hope the bitch dies sir."

THE CALL

Ring Ring

Guy - Executive Transportation

Me - Hi, I'm interested in getting the carriage tour of downtown Covington on Friday.

Guy - That tour is 35$ and leaves from 4th street.

Me - OK, great. I was hoping I could get a pick up at 8th street, I know it's 4 blocks out of the way, but I'd be happy to pay extra. You see I'm finally marrying the woman of my dreams that night and I thought a quick romantic carriage ride would be perfect

Guy - Oh, a wedding, then you need our wedding package. It's $600 dollars and you get to pick your own horse.

Me - gaak, ::stunned silence:: No, you see I only need a 15 minute ride. The normal 35$ dollar tour is for a half hour, but I'd be more than willing to pay double to get just the 15 minutes.

Guy - The wedding package is $600 and you get to pick your own horse.

Me - I don't give a damn about the horse, I just want a 15 minute carriage ride. You see I just love her so much and I think she would really like somthing like that.

Guy - The wedding package is $600 and you get to pick your own horse

Me - "Where sir, Where?!!! For the love of your daughter, just give me a direction. Are you blind sir?! Is that it?"

Guy - The wedding package is $600 and you get to pick your own horse

Me - Go fuck yourself
