The queen of the KJV

So I had this customer yesterday. She was one of the real crazy ones. She was Queen of the KJVers, as I like to call them.

This is how our conversation went.

*ring ring ring ring*
Me: family Christian store this is Kelly what can I do for you?
Crazy Queen Nancy: I need the King James Bible.
Me: okay we have plenty in that translation, do you want a study bible or a thin line?
Crazy Queen Nancy: (speaking more loudly now as if I have a hearing problem and didn't quite understand) THE KING JAMES BIBLE.
Me: yes you'd like it in the king James translation, can you tell me any additional features you're looking for?
CQN: well it needs to have a letter from King James in it.
Me: uhhhh....what?
CQN: It has to have a letter from His Majesty King of England! King James girl you know the one?
Me: I don't think we carry annything like that...
CQN: It also needs to have the old and the new testament, and the words that Jesus speaks needs to be in red, and I need Indian paper
Me: Indian paper?
CQN: INDIAN PAPER GIRL IT'S MADE FROM ONIONS.
Me: let me put you on hold while I call and see if this bible is able to be ordered.
*puts call on hold*

It's days like this that I want to quit my job.
