O'Rly: Blaming the User
(discuss.tchncs.de)
Pairs well with 
Linux users: Everything needs to be dynamically linker. Otherwise it uses to mich space.
Also Linux users: Lets just ship a whole operating system AS a container so the dependencies are always the same.
These are not the same Linux users, however. In fact, they hate each other (/s)
I'm so glad I didn't end up going into IT. Retail can be tiring but IT would be soul destroying.
Maybe if they were willing to even touch the user manual or ask a question instead of just going "it's broke" we wouldn't blame them.
i see you have studied the book well!
Common misconception. That's actually from the follow up book "read the fucking manual because if the answer is in there im gonna smack you" which didn't sell as well due to the long title.
Happy cake day!
There are morons on both sides. Some refuse to read, others refuse to provide information in a way that’s accessible without C.S. degree.
The average person is a moron. If a dev fails to provide information comprehensible to a moron, they are a moron, too.
Or at least say what's broke...
The worse people are the ones that generate most of the interactions, so every side is biased.
Aww RIP Tarder Sauce
