This is the holy grail of anecdotes about the stupid things people do when in the vicinity of computers.

 

Everyone has to read some. They are the best.

NH tells me he was reading them for an hour. Well I did warn you that you wouldn't be able to stop!!

 

Sparhawk, you should be able to relate to some of these too. Especially those in the tech support categories.

 

Here are some of my personal favorites.

 

These are from "Miscellaneous Dumbness".

 

Customer: "I want to get the new Netscape from you people."

Tech Support: "I'll need to charge your account $30."

Customer: "What do you mean? I pay for this service."

Tech Support: "We're providing the registered version of Netscape. Netscape charges us, so we have to charge you."

Customer: "Well, my son is a socialist and I spent a year in Spain. What do you have to say to that?"

Uh....

Customer: "I thought so." *click*

 

Cut from our email support log:

 

 

This morning I tried to sign on and for a purple screen. After several tried with different browsers then I got the message you were down. I tried to exit. It went to a background with huge pixels and stuck. I mean no amount of rebooting would get rid of it. Finally I had to reset my wallpaper.
