Man: ok, now when you mean Harddrive, are you referring to the little small hardware in your computer, or the "BIG BOX"?
Woman: The big box




ME - LOLERING

that guy was very smart to ask that question first. seems he has first hand experience with woman when it comes to that shit, ahah.

fuck, women are stupid

I used to work at an ISP's tech support 1½ years ago, and people used to call in about hardware failures aswell. We had no obligation to help them, but I used to help them out if I could. Thing is, it was a 50/50 Men/Women situation when it came to absolute stupidity with computer hardware. People above the age of 35 shouldnt be alowed to use computers at all. A good example would be this lady who called in:

Me: Yadaya, what can I help you with?
Lady: Hi, my internet isnt working.
Me: Ok, could you please be more specific?
Lady: Well, I click the internet button and nothing happens. I bought the Telia (name of the ISP) Internet 020 (modem internet), installed it and it still wont work. Could you help me?
Me: Well, what happens when you click....

Lots of searching for software issues. 10 minutes later:

Me: So, its safe to say that everything is properly installed. What kind of modem do you have?
Lady: Modem?
Me: Yeah, the piece of hardware you connect to the phonejack in the wall.
Lady: What does it look like?
Me: Well, theres two kinds, internal and external. Do you have a regular phonecord connected to your computer or to a little box, about the size of a pocketbook?
(You can hear the lady woman crawling around under a desk or similar, looking for the modem)
Lady: I cant find any phonecord connected to the harddrive (Yes, she called it harddrive).
Me: I think weve found the problem then. You need a modem to connect to internet.
Lady: Nobody told me that. Where can I get one.....

From there, I just tolod her how to get a modem and so on.

I hated that job. That job is the reason why I hate people.
