| Customer: | “Hi, my son says that I have spartans on my laptop and I should bring it to you guys.” |
| Me: | “…Ma’am? Spartans?” |
| Customer: | “Yes, I called my son at school and told him that screens keep popping up all the time, and he said that I have spartans.” |
| Me: | “Oh! You mean trojans! That’s a possibility; let me run this analyzer on your laptop real quick and we’ll see what’s going on.” |
| Customer: | “Young man, my son is in college and he says it has spartans. You just stand here in a little uniform and make minimum wage. I think my son knows what he is talking about.” |
| Me: | “You’re right ma’am. I was hoping to run a diagnostic and find out that it wasn’t spartans, but just by looking at the login screen, I can tell that you probably have about 300 of the little guys running around.” |
| Customer: | “300?! Is that bad?” |
| Me: | “It’s horrible. They cram themselves into a bottleneck and kill wave after wave of data, until there is a wall of dead programs blocking any more traffic through your computer.” |
| Customer: | “Oh, that just figures. I’m going to go buy a new computer.” |
| Me: | “Ok, ma’am, I think that would be best.” |

| Lee Coleman : | This is great. I love it when people think that college graduates KNOW EVERYTHING and assume that anyone without a degree is a dumb ass waste of space. |
| Mandel: | Unless he uses long words that have nothing to do with the problem: My son told me that because I have a Central Process Unit that can use 2*64 addresses and has a Random Access Memory of 3 GB that I should be able to play solitary faster, should I? |
