Hehe. Related rant, with snarkability from both sides of the fence: I'm the Mac guy and I was out one day when one of the Mac people had some kind of problem. One of my less-clued-in associates tried to go help, sat down at her machine, grabbed the mouse and said... "Where's 'My Computer?'"

The natural response of course... "On 'Your Desk?'"

The user recognized his foolishness, and didn't try to make it your fault. Sadly, these two attributes serve to make this one of the better support calls to show up in this community.

e: open My Computer and .........
L: Your Computer?


I've had this one....in real life. I was ranting about random people and there was this aquantience of mine who was there. And he said the follow:

Him:"tech people are so stupid."
(he's just listened to me rant and knows it's my job, but he's a retard and is trying to contribute to the conversation)Me:*arched eyebrow* Oh?
Him: Yeah. This one time, I called them, and they wouldn't help me. they kept telling me to click on on My computer.
Me:*cringes, knowing what's coming*
Him: and I was all "HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CLICK ON YOUR COMPUTER, You're an IDIOT"
Me: *sigh* It's an icon. On your desktop.
Him: How am I supposed to click on something on his desk??
Me: *DESKTOP* Not, DESK.
Him: Whatever, the tech person was dumb, how am I supposed to click on his computer?
Me, with years of frustration behind this one word: DUMBASS. You. Are. An. Idiot. It's MY COMPUTER. On _your_ Desktop. Arrgh! >.<

It was my most retarded RL conversation. Ever.
