When my mom & dad got a 2nd hand computer awhile ago they'd always call me (average of once a week) to come over and help them when they got stuck or confused. Luckily it was always something easy like something that was unplugged, or just showing them how to get around on the Internet, how to print stuff, etc. I never got impatient with them - in fact I was always very much amused by the fact that they couldn't seem to figure out 'this new-fangled gadget from hell', as my dad called it. Thankfully they were both good natured enough to share my amusement at their own ineptitude with computers. Plus, I always got a free dinner out of the deal. Since they both passed away during the last year, I really miss those calls.

I don't think one can read any such evil stereotypes from Harvester's post. I was merely taking a light-hearted jab at the lesbo-fact being objectively superfluous in the context. Then again lesbians are certainly His most interesting creations. So even just mentioning them adds a beneficial if not sanctifying effect to almost any utterance.
"My coworker was a woman." :erg:
"My coworker was a lesbian woman." :sly:

I spent three years doing phone tech support for a commercial software product, so I learned how to be patient and how to handle the non-techies. I also learned when to give up and refer them to a technician.

Lesbians are our friends.

I guess it depends on what kind of porn we're talking about here. If we're talking about quality kink, a man's gotta eat and ain't got the time to pay attention to the popup.
If only it were porn. I'd almost consider that an excuse for the sheer stupidity. But oh no. The site he absolutely had to check out on a daily basis was none other than (
www.peopleofwalmart.com).
I mean comeon, we live in the deep south. If you absolutely have to check out all the various crazy/hideous Wal-Mart shoppers, just go to Wal-Mart. We have our pick of the litter here.

Come on, you guys are taking it out of context on purpose.

A few years back, there was a
lesbian woman at work whose computer I used to fix sometimes, [...]
He/she (probably a he) decided that
Win98 was too dated or for pussies or whatever, [...]
See? It's relevant.

It comes from all that rug munching. Lots of static buildup...very bad for computers.

Sometimes, you've got to understand, people are just plain fucking dense no matter how clearly you may explain something.
And somehow these thickos always manage to make their incomprehension your fault, much like what happened in graniteoctopus's story there. It's what I love about humanity...as a whole, of course.
Or would that be
hole, since we are talking about lesbians?

My dad calls me to tell him to fix his computer on the phone. I don't play in the IT domain and barely fix my own computer. For instance, once a piece of the computer malfunctioned. I was supposed to guess what exactly by the phone. :tsktsk:

Since the nerds are all gathered...
Once I have finished editing a document, do I leave the whiteout on the screen or can I clean it off after saving?

then blacks, liberals and muslims
:rolleyes:
That is of course not what I meant, but I grant that mentioning that she was a lesbian was unnecessary and served no purpose.
Besides, I'm totally not a homophobe because I have gay friends, so nyahh! :p

I for one cannot stand it when lesbians get computers wrong. PS Queue, how the fuck are holes gay? I'm pretty sure you end up with holes of some form whichever way you go.
