Actually, that is how he uses an apostrophe. It's just not proper.How,Oh God!How,could I have missed this post ?

Oh!Mwa-Bwa-hahaha..Choke, SNORT, wiggle, fall.

I can't do dumbest so,I will do the one I don't like.

My Cpu doesn't work. My CPU is always noisy.

Somewhere back, people started calling their computer
a CPU. That's my least favourite of all things that can
be said by someone posting for help.my printer doesn't work ... Ok what kind is it? It is an x2 g-e-n
Sorry that is what kind of computer monitor you have can you turn around and look at the thing that the paper spits out of. What does it say on the top of it.

It doesn't say anything on it..... Oh you mean the thing that prints on the paper! i thought you meant the tray we keep paper in

I work at a help desk......... not everyone is on the ball i guess.here be a snippit of an #irc convo i happily enjoyed a while ago, with the names changed for the sake of feminism.. no.. greenpeaace.. that's not it.. ah! privacy. or something. goes something like this:

basically how it went o.OI have to admit, the above chat is quite humorous. A bit upsetting to see someone acting like such a child, though.Quote from: CBMatt on June 26, 2007, 09:16:49 PM

Which one?
I see two . . .I'm mainly referring to charlie_brown. Working with someone like "bob citizen" can be a bit frustrating, but it's not an excuse to be rude and give potentially harmful advice.Quote from: CBMatt on June 27, 2007, 11:07:54 AM

yeah sorry about the bad choice in names, it was early
but yeah ''charlie brown'' was being pretty childish most of the time he was on irc and i ended up needing to ban him from ''#noobchat''...
it's people like that who we don't need on forums like this, which is (based on my experience with other forums) going really well, and is a great source of help and information.
but people like ''bob citizen'' also need to elaborate on certain points, including those related to language deficiencies...
he ended up coming back on later though and explaining (in his own way) that he is actually french but has been LEARNING english for 6 years (i figured that was long enough but ok), so we ended up coming to the conclusion that the problem was indeed that he had really dusty fans due to the case being open all day every day for close to a year, stopping the fans from spinning properly
never heard back from him after we gave him further advice though...

but still, nice enough guy, who didn't need instructions on how to screw his computer up Quote from: CBMatt on June 27, 2007, 11:07:54 AM

I was actually on about reaper, but I now see his last COMMENT was sarcastic.
It was early and I wasn't awake, I thought he was being sincere.
So yeah, I see only one immature person too.Quote from: Calum on June 27, 2007, 11:53:55 AM

lol man
you made my day just with that comment Contrary to popular beliefs...there are "stupid" and/or "dumb" questions...regardless of what anyone else thinks...

For instance...

A man works in a munitions dump...pulls out a cigarette and asks the guy standing next to him..."Gotta light?"Quote from: The Saviour on June 27, 2007, 01:31:20 PM

well... it's not a stupid question if he actually doesn't know if the man next to him has a light or not.
he could also be a suicidal maniac, in which case, it's actually a rather productive question.
not that i promote suicide or anything This got so close to the guy rolling in the yard and laughing.

His neighbor comes by and says"What are you doing rolling
around in the yard laughing ? Your house is burning down!

Guy looks up and says "That okay.I have enough wood in the
attic to build another one".

Good old Bubba...LOLlol... i wish i had an attic so i could try that one..
