So today my Spanish teacher's projector started tinting everything pink (loose VGA cable probably). Unfortunately, no content arose. It's sad that the school is full of tech illiterates yet none of them actually think they know things D-:

No one ever had Mario Teaches Typing? I didn't either but it's a funny way to teach typing...

Well I could write long stories of my old school, and how they knew everything ("wireless is obviously better than wired, because it's the future therefore obviously better" etc.) but meh it's the same old stories and we've all heard them before.

Kid: How come my scanner's not scanning things into the computer? It's running and everything. Me: Oh, you don't have the software installed. (10 minutes later, shit HP software installed) Kid: Still doesn't work! Me: (looks at PSC box) You didn't put in the USB cable... Kid: But it's a WIRELESS scanner! :doh: I can see where he's coming from, there are wireless printers now, but this sure as hell isn't one of them.

My one friend thought PSU stood for Power Supply Unit, hah (and he's a computer science major!) which is obviously just the power box, transformer, whatever. After arguing with the dimwit for an hour I just let him have it, wouldn't want to wreck his ego or anything.

I love my wireless printer. Dell actually [I]paid[/I] me $1.10 to take it.

Typing with ten fingers is great for brag right and all, but I'm way faster with typing with only using 3 fingers per hand.

Meh, I was under the impression that if you hooked everything directly to the wall socket it would fry shit. Oh well.

Its not obvious to some people ie the people that posted above you. Some people have no sense of humor. Besides I'm generating content for the "socially inept people who think they're cool" thread.
