Weird Customer #2

Crazy Customer: (cuts in front of someone, holds up an ipod, and mumbles something incoherent to me)
147xxxx: sorry, what was that you said?
CC: mumble mumble i need to set this ipod to the factory settings
147xxxx: ...uh
CC: DO YOU HAVE A COMPUTER mumble mumble i have to set it to factory settings
147xxxx: sorry... I uhh.. I can't help you with that...
This person looked like a hot mess and ABSOLUTELY OUT OF HER MIND. Why the hell would we have a computer for you to use. And, sorry, but how do you know about factory settings? When I got to the next customer he asked me "did that really just happen?"
These 2 weird customers where the only notable thing that happened in the last few days. Excuse my absence; I had to send in my somewhat busted laptopoff to be repaired, and it was too obnoxious to type out a whole post and look at tumblr on my iphone. </whitewhine>

147xxxx: oh... wait, sorry, excuse me?
Customer: yeah. YOU put TOO MUCH MILK in my AMERICANO.
147xxxx: Well an americano is hot water and shots of espresso - no milk, which was how I made it.
Customer: ... well... I usually get it with a bit of steamed milk...
147xxxx: Oh, alright. If you pass it back to me, I can put some in for you-
Customer: UGH, I'LL JUST PUT COLD MILK IN IT MYSELF.
