Tech support fun:

Me: (standard greeting)
Her: Let me put you on hold.
(time passes)
(she comes back, explains problem)
Me: What operating system are you using?
Her: Like NT? 2000?
Me: Well, NT, 2000, 98, 95...
Her: Oh. It's Windows NT 2000.
Me: (so not in the mood for this) Is it NT or 2000?
Her: NT, so I guess Windows 95 then.

"Oh, well, if you have DSL, let me refer you to Ma Bell..."
"But I have cable!"
"Well, you certainly don't need cable if you have DSL! Let me transfer you to billing so you can cancel your account."
