COMPUTER JOKES

You Know You've Been On The Computer Too Long...

When asked about a bus schedule, you wonder if it is 16 or 32 bits.

When you are counting objects, you go "0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D...".

When you dream in 256 pallettes of 256 colors.

When your wife says "If you don't turn off that damn machine and come to bed, then I am going to divorce you!", and you chastise her for for omitting the "else" clause.

You try to sleep, and think sleep(8 * 3600); /* sleep for 8 hours /

When you are reading a book and look for the scroll bar to get to the next page.

When you get in the elevator and double-click the button for the floor you want.

When not only do you check your email more often than your paper mail, but you remember your network address faster than your postal one.

When you look for a icon to double-click to open your bedroom window.

When you go to balance your checkbook and discover that you're doing the math in octal.

When you look for a trash can icon for throwing garbage.

If your computer says, "Printer out of Paper," this problem cannot be resolved by continuously clicking the "OK" button. No matter how much data you add to your laptop, it will not get heavier. A bad place to store your emergency backup diskette is on the underside of your desk drawer, secured by a large magnet. When the PC says, "Insert diskette #2," don't do it immediately. Remove disk #1 first, even if you're sure you can make them both fit in there. When your PC says "You have mail," don't go to the company mail room and look for a package. The French version of Netscape Navigator doesn't translate English language web pages into French. li>If you're in the armed services, and it's April 1st, and you get an e-mail message to call Colonel Sanders for new orders, don't.

AND the number 1 way to tell if a Redneck has been working on a computer is... 1. The mouse is referred to as a "critter".

Pentiums melt in your PC, not in your hand. The secret of the universe is @*&^^^ NO CARRIER Did anyone see my lost carrier? Error, no keyboard - press F1 to continue.
