Stickul si wc-ul

April 15th, 2008

Scumpii nostri parlamentari romani au decis sa cumpere elevilor stickuri de memorie (4 Gb) pentru a-si stoca pe ele manualele scolare. Valoarea proiectului: 30 milioane euro. Sunt curios ce-or face cu ele elevii de la tara care n-au un wc in care sa-si faca nevoile sau aia care n-au calculatoare sau aia la care le pica tavanu-n cap pentru ca scoala n-a mai fost renovata de pe vremea lui Ceausescu… Important e sa aiba stick!

OS Jokes

March 30th, 2008

I was calling to sign up with a new DSL provider. When the guy asked what operating system I was using, I said, “Linux.” I was put on hold for five minutes, and then a supervisor came back and told me, “You can’t use Linux to connect to the Internet. It’s a hacker tool, anyway.” I almost fell out of my chair.

  • Friend: “I heard about this thing called ‘Linux’.”
  • Me: “Oh, I use Linux.”
  • Friend: “What is it?”
  • Me: “An operating system.”
  • Friend: “Like Firefox?”

I saw two older looking ladies trying to figure out the computers at a local store. I knew one of them would say something that I could send to Computer Stupidities, so I tried to listen in.

  • Woman 1: “What is that little trash can on the screen?”
  • Woman 2: “My son says that is call the ‘recycle bin’. He tells me when I don’t want a Word document anymore and I delete it, it really goes in there.”
  • Woman 1: “Why in the recycle thingy? Can’t you just erase it?”
  • Woman 2: “Oh no, Word wouldn’t work for very long if I did that, I would run out of blank pages.”
  • Woman 1: “Why?”
  • Woman 2: “Because it cleans the words off the pages, then sends the blank sheets back to Word so they can be used again. That’s why it’s called the recycle bin.”
