This site doesn't have one, so I'll start one. Maximum of three jokes per post please - those people who have asthma like me will understand the restriction. So, to start:
1) Two men walked into a bar. The third one ducked.
2) Don't criticize someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. That way, when you do criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
3) A friend of mine used to work in a computer store and one day they had a gentleman call in with a smoking power supply. The service rep was having a bit of trouble convincing this guy that he had a hardware problem.
Service Rep: Sir, something has burned within your power supply.
Customer: I bet that there is some command that I can put into...
Service Rep: There is nothing that software can do to help you with...
Customer: I know that there is something that I can put in... some command... maybe it should go into the CONFIG.SYS.
[After a few minutes of going round and round.]
Service Rep: Okay, I am not supposed to tell anyone this but there is a hidden command in some versions of DOS that you can use. I want you to edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT and add the last line as C:\DOS\NOSMOKE and reboot your computer.
[Customer does this.]
Customer: It is still smoking.
Service Rep: I guess you'll need to call Microsoft and ask them for a patch for the NOSMOKE.EXE.
[The customer then hung up. They thought that they had heard the last of this guy but NO . . . he calls back four hours later.]
Service Rep: Hello Sir, how is your computer?
Customer: I called Microsoft and they said that my power supply is incompatible with their NOSMOKE.EXE and that I need to get a new power supply. I was wondering when I can have that done and how much it will cost..
(Someone at Microsoft must have been thinking really fast....)
