I must confess, mine wasn’t original either… But they don’t have to be limericks. Anything tech related that’s a bit of a laugh is also good – just thought it might be good to collect a few things in the one place.
So, here’s another – not original, but reworded just for Flying Solo
An oldie but a goodie. (Goodies, goody goody yum yum!)
Relax, grab a coffee and enjoy.
Support: Hello and welcome to Lled Computers. How can I help?
Customer: Um, I seem to have broken my coffee cup holder.
Support: In your car?
Customer: No, on my computer.
Support: On your computer?
Customer: Yes, you know, you press a button and that little tray slides out. Well, it doesn’t slide out anymore, so I don’t have anywhere to put my coffee cup.
Support: No, you’re supposed to put a cdrom in it.
Customer: A cdrom? No, I only ever put Nescafe in my cup.
Support: No, I meant in the tray.
Customer: Put Nescafe in the tray? That’s what I’m trying to tell you. The tray doesn’t work anymore. And anyway, even if It did, it’d just fall through the hole in the middle!
Support: (sigh)
Customer: Hello? Hello?
Oh no … I haven’t seen one of these for years!!
