In a certain town, a man walked into a bookstore to return a purchase. "It's a Bible," he said, handing to the clerk at the cash register.
"Was it a gift?" asked the clerk.
"No, I bought it for myself," he said, "and I made a mistake."
"Didn't you like the translation? Or the format?"
"Oh no," the man said, "the format was clear and the translation was fine. I made a mistake."
The clerk said, "Well, I need to write down a reason for the return."
