JamieP Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Heh ......namecalling is sooooooo much more mature. lol Anyhooooooo, it is a tad harsh and magneto, if my comments made you cry then I will happily give you a cuddle until your parents are ready to collect you. I am being a bit of a cnut but this type of thing bugs me more than anything. If you don't like it then I will take no offense if you click the little ignore button and bansih me forever into the capitalisation abyss. blimey what a thing to get worked up about, not getting any at home:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Very, from a moderator aswell! So what? I moderate, does that mean a) I can't swear? b) I can't enforce forum rules as a member and c) I can't be harsh. Each to their own, I will not argue your opinions (in fact I have agreed I was harsh) but at the same time, I am entitled to mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 You horrible man, Lewis. You should be ashamed of yourself. I don't know how you sleep at night, you nasty piece of work you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 um no. my original post was based upon a PC gag regarding a phonecall, obviously not everyone got it, there was no offense intended. So before this gets out of hand I apologise. The joke: This is an allegedly true story from the WordPerfect helpline. Needless to say the help desk employee was fired; however he/she is currently suing the WordPerfect organization for termination without cause. Actual dialogue of a WordPerfect help desk employee and a WordPerfect customer: Ridge Hall computer assistance, may I help you? Yes, I need help, I'm having trouble with my computer What kind of trouble? Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden all the words went away Went away? They disappeared Hmm. So what does your screen look like right now? Nothing Nothing? It's blank, it won't accept anything that I type Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out? How do I tell? Can you see the C: prompt on the screen? What's a sea-prompt? Never mind. Can you move the cursor around on the screen? There isn't one:I told you. It wont accept anything I type Does your monitor have a power indicator? What's a monitor? It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on? I don't know Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that? Yes, I think so Great. Follow the cord to the plug and tell me if it's plugged into the wall. Yes, it is When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one? No Well, there are. I need you to look back there and find the other cable Okay, here it is Follow it for me and tell me if it's plugged securely in the back of the computer. I can't reach Uh huh. Well can you see if it is? No Even if you put your knee on something and leaned way over? Oh, its not because I don't have the right angle, it's because it is dark Dark? Yes, the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window. Well turn on the office light then I can't No, why not? Because there's a power outage A power. . . a power outage? Aha, okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff that your computer came in Well, yes. I keep them in the closet Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store that you bought it from Really? Is it that bad? Yes, I'm afraid it is Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them? Tell them you are too fucking stupid to own a computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
