    So me and my friend were sitting in class before it began and the resident class idiot (in more ways than one, he's dumb and makes no effort at improvement and he does his very best to piss people off) walks up to us.

    Idiot: Hey, guys what's up?
    Me: sigh
    Friend: What is it?
    Idiot: I just got a cool game yesterday.
    Friend: which one?
    Idiot: Max Payne, my friend burned it for me
    Me: and your point is?
    Idiot: I can't get it to work on my computer?
    Friend: what's the problem?
    Idiot: I don't know, that's why I'm asking you
    Me: did you turn the computer on?
    Idiot: yeah, I think so. of course I did, you think I'm stupid or something
    Friend: do you have a 3d card?
    Idiot: what's that?
    Friend: It's a piece of hardware that you need to play the game
    Idiot: what's it like? no I don't have one.
    Friend: well that's your problem then
    Idiot: how can I get one? can you burn it for me?
    <me and my friend start cracking up here>
    Idiot: what?
    Friend: nothing, it's just something funny that happened withe my card last week
    Idiot: Oh, so can you burn it for me?
    Friend: I don't have one that works right now, but I bet someone else can burn it for you
    Idiot: okay, thanks
    <idiot walks away, me and my friend proceed to laugh hysterically again>

    What a dimwit! Burn a 3d card [face_laugh]

    Now normally me and my friend would have explained to the person exactly what it was, but I like I said, he's a jerk too so we let someone else take care of that [face_laugh]

    I find it neither fun nor funny to make fun of people stupider than I am (except in those cases where they just won't shut up). And ignorance isn't necessarily idiocy, either. ;)

    Burn a 3D card? LMAO

    Idiot: I can't get it to work on my computer?
    Friend: what's the problem?
    Idiot: I don't know, that's why I'm asking you

    What does he think you are? God? It's not like you can diagnose such a general problem with no info.

    Now I realize that not everyone knows much about computers. And I am normally nice to such people and I explain everything to them nicely. And though I find their ignorance funny, I realize that other people probably find my ignorance on other subjects funny.

    But like I said, we already knew this guy is a jerk. So there was no way we were going to waste our time with him. Which is why we laughed at him and made fun of him :D

    My dad sent me a transcript for a computer tech support call. The guy called and said that the cupholder had fallen off of his computer. The tech support rep said that their computers don't come with with a standard cupholder, that it must have been an extra thrown in by the retailer and that there was nothing he could do. The guy continued to argue, and it finally turned out that what he'd though was the cupholder had been the CD-ROM drive.

    I once read about a guy calling tech support because his comp suddenly shut off. After a long time diagnosing, he was asked to check the connections in the back. Guy said he couldn't see them because the power went out. [face_plain]

    AT60, I've seen that one too, just forgot the exact circumstances. Some people are just too dumb to own a computer.

    Why is making fun of people who don't know as much about computers as you do funny?

    People like that shouldn't be using computers, or anything involving electricity.
