DEAR LUSER,

After you describe to me a double-drop ide chain on BOTH PRIMARY AND SECONDARY CONTROLLERS DO NOT ACT LIKE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK I'M TALKING ABOUT WHEN I SAY TO DISCONNECT THE HARD DRIVE IDE CABLE (I even described it as "that flat ribbon-y thang" as you so succinctly called it) AND PLUG THE TOP PORTION INTO THE DVD ROM, THE SHORT PORTION INTO THE CDRW, AND THE CABLE THAT WAS ON THOSE DRIVES NEEDS TO HAVE THE SHORTER PORTION CONNECTED TO THE HARD DRIVE.

Do not make me repeat myself over and over and OVER AFUCKINGAIN when I gave you clear instructions the first fucking time an HOUR AND 10 MINUTES AGO.

OH WOW YOU FINALLY GOT IT RIGHT!!

I am surprised you can even wash yourself, let alone turn a computer on, you sniveling, incompetent cretin.

And apparently you don't detect disdain or sarcasm very well.
AND NO YOU CAN'T HAVE MY PHONE NUMBER.

No, really, it wasnt a pleasure speaking with you.
GO SUCK EGGS.
Sincerely,
Mellay

Amen! I hear that loud and clear!

So many times:
Luser: I have a flashing cable light in my modeum.
me: Ok, go ahead and unplug teh power from the modem.
Luser: what's that?

In all fairness, swapping IDE cables is a pretty major task for the average home user. I feel your pain, and I'm pretty hard and truly brainless callers. But this is something I'd give a novice a whole lot of slack for not being able to do.
