Remember MADtv's Bunny Swan?

Imagine talking her through a critical command line procedure. Half an hour of trying to type one (case sensitive and fairly system-critical) command without typos, spelling out character by character in her own idiosyncratic phonetics because international phonetics throw her off, and getting into an argument every time a command has a slash or dash character in it. I hit the wall when she said the delete key wasn't deleting characters and was adding dashes to the command line, because the best I could get out of her was that she was carefully avoiding using the exact key I was trying to get her to use.

I need to talk to someone sane .. after I pound a head-shaped hole in my desk and then go get lunch .. *incoherent mumble* ..

Birds gotta fly. Fish gotta swim. Powerpoint gotta corrupt. It's part of the circle of life. Deal with it.
