Things not to do if you do not want to not piss me off
Byaaakuren:
I'm so glad my parents don't know how to use a computer. ...I don't think I want them looking at what I have. I don't really feel comfortable letting other people use my electronics (except for my phone...as long it's to make a phone call), with the exception of some people.

:derp: Hey Virus that msconfig thing you did the other day fucked up my computer.
:V Huhwhat
:derp: When I turn on the computer, it says Installing Updates but it never finishes
:V Hmm, that's strange
:derp: It goes 0% and then it just stops
:V Your computer crashes?
:derp: No, it just takes me to the password thing.
:V Oh. That's normal then.
:derp: It's happened twice already, it's not! I changed it back to what I used to have.
*Boots Computer
:V Dude, don't do that! This thing is absurdly slow now. (He reenabled EVERYTHING in MSCONFIG and now the laptop is sluggish as hell.)
Anyway, once your computer's finished booting let me find out what's going on.
*Five minutes later.
:derp: Oh you were right. The Update thing didn't pop up this time. Well I forgot how to change the startup thing, so can y--
:V Done. Don't mess around with the startup again.

This. This a thousand times. How people can't manage to see the difference between them I will never know. It even asks if you want to close the tab, or if you want to close everything.
DX7.EP:
Time to describe more adventures in shitty tech support!
:ohdear: Hey EP I installed this Anti-Virus and shit, and my computer lags like hell, help plz
:V Em...okay.
:derp: I think it's due to malware, and AV program tells me to pay for updated definitions ~
:V OK then. I'll see what I can do about it....
* EP patches system in 5 minutes after removing "antivirus" software which was really malware

Incident #2:
:derp: EP! I hate my old PC, I NEED a Mac! Which one fits me best? I CAN'T STAND THIS PLASTIC POS!
??? Eh...first of all, tell me why you need a Mac. You know, it's not for every ~
:V BECAUSE EVERYONE knows Macs have no viruses, are stupidly simple to use, are super-glossy and shiny, and are so damn AWESOME! Why else would you think people go for that system?
??? ...yeah, of course, but this is all advertising. Trust me, I'm a long-time Mac user, and really, it's not an everyman's system. Any other specific reasons?
:derp: ...I dunno what you're asking here, what other reasons could there be for Mac OS?
:V In that case, how about turning your Windows to a minimalist ~
>:( NONONONONOONONO ~
??? ...or there's always Ubuntu or Linux Mint, which are easy ~
>:( WHAT?! That's, like, COMMAND TERMINAL STUFF! Too hard!
????????? Then I'll take you to the Ubuntu site ~
>:(>:( BITCH I DON'T WANT DOS PROMPTS
>:D Well then! I guess you ARE happy on your Windows POS which came about as a result of your user stupidity!
>:( WHAT?! MSFT caused this problem!
:moogy: Tell me, then, what did you normally do on this system?
:blush: Um...I downloaded 450 screensavers, got myself 40 toolbars for IE, and torrented 2000-ish movies, games, and even a little bit of ani ~
:yumemi: Eh...that explains it. That is all. :smug: :dealwithit:
Udongein:
This thread reminds me so much of this website so much.
I'd hate to work in Tech Support, though. How are you guys still sane? :V
