Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Red Herring
Natalie: Hello? Mr. Monk? Hello? Mr. Monk? Adrian Monk: One, two, three... Natalie: Are you okay? What are you doing? Adrian Monk: Measuring. It says eight feet, stay back! Natalie: You know, they, they mean approximately. Adrian Monk: No, no. It doesn't say approximately. You have to trust the label makers, professional label makers. Natalie: Just give me that! Adrian Monk: Wait a second, you're too close! [Natalie puts the fire out] Are you okay? We did it. I'm gonna write these people a letter. We could've been killed. They should say "approximately."
