Ok, so chances are you're on this Site a lot. If you're like me, you're the house's free tech service for everything that has a switch, cord or wire.
And we all know we've been asked some pretty stupid questions. So why not have a good laugh about it rather than strangle the person who did it?
After you're out of real ones, if you have to feel free to make them up. Just make sure they're in the field of realism.
For example: no "How do you plug the computer in?" to get the most attention. (unless of course someone actually did ask you that and by all means feel free to say it.)
I'll go first because, well no one else has a choice I'm going first.
Earlier this year my sister asked me "How do you use iTunes?" and later... "How do I sync my iPod?"
(yes I understand that doesn't really seem to be in the bounds of realism, but I'm serious! It happened!)
So go ahead, think you can beat me with a dumber family member or friend?
Edit: Also, if you happen to be knowledgeable on the forums or you've seen people post this on forums, feel free to post those too.
No names please.
its not tech question but its funny....

Another time, my grandpa wanted to know where his bluetooth cable is and I was like, go search it in the instructions, maybe you will find it. Good Luck.

Had a lady come into my workplace (where we sell ATT, Sprint and T-Mobile) and told me that her iPhone 3gs, that she had on T-Mobile prepaid, could not make phone calls. I told her to just take out the battery and put it back in. She didn't know how to do it and demanded that I do it for her. Since she didn't buy the phone from us, I didn't want to risk damaging the phone, and because I was busy with other ACTUAL customers, I told her that i was unable to do it. She then claimed that because I couldn't open an iPhone, my store must be "technologically behind" and that I was slow and wouldnt understand how to use something like an iPhone. Skipping the part where I embarrassed her by showing how my HTC inspire dominates, I am just pointing out how she is an average iPhone user.
Me: "do you have a smart phone?"
IPhone user: " pfft.. no. I have an iPhone."

Yes. She was already giving me a hard time so I figured I'd give her an impossible task.
Also, when I told her that we WERE in fact technologically "ahead", I showed her the android phones (including mine).
She responded with "I have an android too, but it ain't no iPhone."
That's when she whipped out a Rumor Touch on Virgin Mobile. *Shoots self

i think most ppl have heard of it but anyways:
a (swedish?) study pointed out, that a lot of these apple-fanatics show the same symptoms as ppl diagnosed with the stockholm syndrome. they defend their iphone against any kind of criticism and are somewhat deaf for reasonable arguments like the iphone having no extendable storage, removeable battery, supports no flash and so on...
have to say that not only iphone users show these symptoms but also nearly any person being strongly fond of one of their posessions (car, hifi etc).
the iphone is a nice device but way too expensive and i rather stick with a phone i have more control over.
but i dig my ipod+itunes. works great.
An actual conversation that I had with an iPhone user:
iPhone user: What is that, an iPhone?
Me: No. It's an HD2.
iPhone user: Oh. My iPhone can probably do more than that thing.
Me: Oh really?
iP user: Yes.
Me: Can it turn into a WiFi hotspot?
iP: Yes. But I have to pay more for it.
Me: But can it run another OS?
iP: no

Haha nah. Definitely was a Rumor Touch. Girl I work with just got rid of her Ally and got a Captivate. She still swears that the Ally is a "great" phone. Then again she's an idiot.
when i had my streak everyone with an "i" phone was always like what is that the new i phone and i wld just say apple wishes and that always started a war if your using an iphone wouldnt you know if a new phone was coming out
I have been amazed before by the intuitive predictions Google search comes up with and I have even been grateful at times. I have accepted that they read my email (anonymously of course?) In order to help me with ads I might like... But today a friend was telling me about a book on a table at a friend of mines house, that the title was "the land of Seagull and cat" she thought. Anyway, for ****s and giggles I started to search for it but it predicted the whole term after I hit the "a" in sea. No other suggestions, just that. No text messages, email etc. with that term in it... There has got to be something processing my audio conversations and there has to be a way to stop it?

So guys I finally bought n7 today (launch day) I checked n7 for any issues it could had. Screen was ok, multitouch looked nice also...but when I filled it with some apps it just crashed to boot screen two times. First time hard reset - vol.down+power worked. Second time it was completely stucked in boot screen (X logo). Nothing helped.
So I went to the shop and instatly replaced for the brand new n7. As I came home I realised it has a bit of screen lifting (didnt see this issue in the shop). But rly I could live with it since its minor not like in the videos. But the funny thing is I tried to check out inside of n7. Somehow I couldnt detach the back So it looks like I got glued tablet. I feel special. And the shop is out of stock so yay from tomorrow im again without n7.

I wouldn't have changed so quickly. Rebooting sometimes happens. Its doesn't mean that the tablet has a defect. Since i bough mine i had 2 reboots. Apart from that it is perfect in everything.

Have to agree with this, he got a tablet, and instantly returned it instead of giving it time to settle in, then when he got his next tablet he decided that because of an issue that doesn't affect the tablet he is going to return it again.

constructive critism? nop, poor trolling. So i created a topic about my problem. Your trolling is even worse and less mannered than what I did. So get out if you have nothing to say. That post hunting doesnt give you right to say OT ****. If I did something wrong a mod can move it to the right place and I will apologize. Love the smartasses like you.
Back to topic. The first n7 I waited, rebooted it couple of times, etc but it didnt help.
The second n7..I didnt see it was used already, even charger wasnt packed.
About for you "minor" issues. I buy a brand new product from a huge tech company. I dont expect to repair what I buy. I dont want to buy a product who is marked as "broken". Maybe for you its nothing but for me, its like 2/3 of my salary.
Maybe you love defected goods so you can fix them..I dont.

Well first, I think this is the wrong forum. Might want to post in Q&A. Secondly, my advice as a guy who has experienced the same phone envy as you is to be patient, save up, and wait for the Nexus 6 to come out and get that. It'll hand better battery life, and you're not making a huge step up. I've tried it out, it's not worth the upgrade if you're strapped for cash.
IF you're still interested in a Nexus 5 in spite of all these discouragements, then my advice is this. Sell your phone, which should net you at least half the value (more if you're crafty) of the Nexus 5, and do some phone repair. With the addition of phone repair, which could give you, say, $80/week or every two weeks, within a month you'll have the proper funds. If you sell your phone, get a dumb phone in the meantime. I'll donate one of my old ones to you for free if you want.
Shovel snow, mow lawns, work your ass off doing odd jobs going door to door until you get that phone (wash windows, teach elderly how to use a computer or tablet, walk dogs). You'll be a better man for it and it'll build up that work ethic. Honestly when I was younger I walked rich people's dogs and made a ton of money, helped me save up for a car.

Hey all, I love my N4, but seeing everyone in the android communities with the nexus 5 makes me cry inside, so I wanted to get one. Problem is, I'm 14 which is below the legal age to work, I root/flash/unlock/etc. peoples phones off craigslist, but that isn't too efficient as I get about $40 a week from that IF THAT, and $40 a month goes to my servers, any ideas on how I can make money? Preferably online as I go to school and I can't really do as many things during the day. I know Java, HTML, CSS, a LITTLE JavaScript, Python, C++, and some Lua. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. Thanks all! <3

I would say find a part time job with at least 10-18 hours per week, in one or two month (depends upon salary) u'll be able to buy nexus 5 without even selling nexus 4.

Make your first ten posts meaningful by preferably answering questions in a Q&A forum or doing concise responds in a general forum?

how good is your PC? You could set it up as a bit coin Miner, mine a s##tload of bit coins and sell them for a profit?
