Humor...
« on: June 15, 2009, 02:52:46 PM »
I was having trouble with my computer. So I called Branden, the 11 year old next door whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, and asked him to come over. Branden clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.

As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong?

He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.'

I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, 'An, ID ten T error? What's that? In case I need to fix it again.'

Branden grinned.... 'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?'

'No,' I replied.

Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.'
          




A local priest and a pastor were fishing on the side of the road. They thoughtfully made a sign saying, "The End is Near! Turn yourself around now before it's too late!" and showed it to each passing car.
    
One driver who drove by didn't appreciate the sign and shouted at them, "Leave us alone, you religious nuts!"

All of a sudden they heard a big splash, looked at each other, and the priest said to the pastor, "You think maybe we should have just said 'Bridge Out' instead?"
Smart people look like crazy people to stupid people.

Read the first one to someone else (don't let them read it) and then have them write down the phrase.  ;D

It's an old expression in the tech support community and is similar to "pebcak".

There are times you strive for greatness, to reach lofty goals and accomplish
noble deeds. Then there’s the rest of the times you just want to blow s--- up.

Are you writing ten in its number form? Because that gives it away

And is it a bad thing that I don't use the default SMF smilies, and instead opt for the PHPBB stuff?

It's all relative to your point of view  ;D
