  1. Isn't the F5 key wonderful?  It's so refreshing!

      that guy forgot to put f5 key on my keyboard :(

      You can also press alt + F4 when you've had enough.

  2. Your computer may be able to beat you at chess every time, but just remember, it will lose at kickboxing every time.

      Unless it's a computer from the 1960s.  It'll tip over and crush you like a oversized vending machine.

  3. You have a newly married couple who have to share one computer with Internet access, what are the odds that the marriage will survive?

      With communication, there is no issues :)

       

      But for their sanity, they should buy a second one. How else will they play AoE2 together?

  4. Rumor has it that some guy called Moses had the first tablet that could connect to the cloud.

    1. carlsson

      carlsson

      The resolution was a bit limited though, only about five lines which caused him to use two tablets to get the entire message through.

      @carlsson I believe it was originally 3 tablets, but legend has it he dropped one.

      I suppose the damage wasn't covered by AppleCare, after that Eden incident.

  5. How can you tell if a blonde has been using your computer?  There's Liquid Paper all over the screen!

    1. Omega-TI

      Omega-TI

      Liquid Paper was a product used to correct mistakes on typewritten paper.  The punchline is that the blonde is so ditsy that she tried to correct her mistakes on the word processor by using it on the screen.

      I always heard it more as How can you tell if a blonde has been using your word processor?

  6. What do computer designers have for lunch?  Micro-Chips!

    1. No One You Know

      No One You Know

      I smiled but I have heard jokes like this too many times. Someone gave me a printed sheet of computer jokes once and there were some original ones actually. I see "original" though by that I only mean I had not heard them before.

      They might be micro-chips but we eat them in mega bytes! :D

      Did you buy a joke book or are you making these up yourself?

  7. Women are like Internet domain names, the good ones are already taken.

     

    1. ∞ Vince ∞

      ∞ Vince ∞

      Yeah, and that is what all the good women just out of crap relationships think about men. Not that many women give a shit about domain names...

       

      I think you will find, when it comes to domain names, even the crap ones are taken !

  8. Claustrophobic people are more productive thinking out of the box.

     

  9. If at first you don't succeed, call it Version 1.0

    1. No One You Know

      No One You Know

      Or do it the modern way where you call it version 0.3 or alpha 1 or something.

  10. It's not a good idea to rob from Peter to pay Paul because no one wants a sore Peter!

    1. Stephen

      Stephen

      Exactly - you can't beat it!  Nobody wants that.

    2. thanatos

      Keep these up.  I stole one of your jokes and used it on my work's Yammer site.  This one, probably not though.  :D

    3. SoundGammon

      SoundGammon

      It's like a sore dick...you can't beat it!

  11. Hear about the guy that was fired from the keyboard factory?  It turned out he was not putting in enough 'shifts'.

    1. Bixler

      Bixler

      LUCKILY HE REMEMBERED TO PUT IN CAPSLOCK!

    2. Kiwi

      Kiwi

      he forgot to put one on mine.  so i can't yell across the internet anymore. 😑

      Well, there's got to be a CTRL process, so in the End, the dude needed to go Home.

      On his F1 Fighter jet.

      And drink a Tab, before it is pulled off the shelf.

  12. I tried to my make my work computer password “beefstew”.
    But the IT guy said it wasn’t stroganoff.

    1. Cebus Capucinis

      Cebus Capucinis

      I've done some stroganoff at my computer in my day...

  13. Why were older computers heavier?  Because they used a FAT file system!

    1. jaybird3rd

      jaybird3rd

      Yo filesystem's so fat ... it needs an allocation table for TWO!

    2. Kiwi

      Kiwi

      Yo operating system is so large that it uses Doors instead of Windows.

  14. If you tell someone their brain is an APP, will they start using it?

     

  15. Samsung changed the job description of "Security Guards" to "Guardians of the Galaxy".

  16. Hear about the guy that changed his user name to "Benefits"?  He said, "Next time someone adds me, it will say, 'You are now friends with Benefits!'"

  17. I tried looking up lighters on eBay and all they had was 11,349 matches!

    1. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      I see what you did there...Matches!  Haaa!

    2. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Also...

       

      Bummer, because lighter #11,350 was the coolest one of the bunch, and you surely would have bought it if the guy listing it hadn't misspelled it as "Liter".

    3. No One You Know

      @GoldLeader I got a decent deal on an N64 on ebay that way in august where it was listed under video game accessories instead of consoles or something like that. Sort of related, I always wonder how cheap Nuons have been sold before as regular DVD players. I know they're rare, but the only thing showing what they are is a tiny little badge on the front that nobody would ever care what it means unless they already know what it means, so there have got to be some selling on ebay as "samsung DVD player" etc that you would never see when searching for them. It is also the only reason I bother looking at DVD players in charity shops really. Most 3DO models look like nondescript DVD players too, as opposed to most games consoles that advertise what they are as much as possible, like Jag or Mega Drive.

  18. A clean house is a sign of a broken computer.

    1. Bixler

      Bixler

      Or an imminent visit from the in-laws. ;)

    2. Rogerpoco

      Rogerpoco

      Well...at least for me, (I've only had one main "incident"), I curled up in a ball on my couch the first couple days, but then like you said, set about remembering "real life" had been happening around me and needed catching up.

      @Bixler - I actually look forward to those, is the only time I actually get any help cleaning up!

      :D

  19. Smoking can kill you, and too much bacon will kill you... but if you smoke bacon, you can cure it!

    1. thanatos

      thanatos

      I quit smoking cold turkey.  It's just too hard to light.

  20. Would you buy a new piece of hardware for your classic computer if in all probability little, if anything in the way of software would ever be made for it?

    1. Keatah

      Keatah

      New hobbyist hardware made today? Nope not a chance unless it was something with extraordinary promise and scope.

       

      I have a number of 40+ year old vintage Apple II peripherals from bitd that are one-hit-wonders. No 3rd party software ever made, only the disks and type-in listings that came with it.

      Very vast possibility. I think if it's affordable enough with a killer program to utilize it then it could do well even if for a single use application.

  21. You have to click on the clock to see it...

    1. Iwantgames:)

      Iwantgames:)

      I clicked my clock but still seen nothing. Thought maybe a bit harder, used the hammer now all I see is a broken clock 😕

      I have an PAL RF modulator for a TI-99 or 4A that I got from a car boot sale but I don't actually have the machine. "UHF channel 36 PAL modulator PHA 2035 for home computer" with big TI badge in the middle, a cable with some weird DIN connector on the end coming out, and a coax port on the side.

      Emergency escape man in proper use. BTW I have a logitech keyboard jsut like that, it's my only wireless keyboard but I don't like typing on it very much because of the way the keyas are, and the mouse is lost currently.

  22. If you lived on Mars and wanted to be on AtariAge...

  23. Did you know Forrest Gump's email password was, "1forrest1".

  24. A friend of mine stopped texting me out of the blue, the last message from him said, "Mom said if I don't get off the computer she'll slam my head into the keyboard, but I think she's 8347yt5"

  25. Did you hear about the guy who was always forgetting his password?  He changed it to "incorrect", so when he forgets, the computer will tell him, "Your password is incorrect!"
