One of the funniest that I still regularly encounter is people who power cycle their monitor to reboot their computer. Not realizing that the monitor isn’t the computer itself…
I mean, the list goes on and on and on for this kind of stupid shit. The kicker is that if you even fucking try to make them slightly less goddamned stupid about this shit, they don’t want to hear it.
You’ll be taking at them and you might as well be taking to the fucking wall for all the good it will do.

Once got a ticket for “a broken DVD-drive”. Went on over. 'Twas a CD-drive.
