    RE Teacher (also headteacher) realized the sound isnt working
    Student (not me) goes and tries to sort it out
    Eventually technician is called.
    Technician finds out the speakers' cable is in the microphone slot XD

    LOL FAILURE

    Mine isn't actually funny, but hey, I tried.

    At computers at school, we had to draw something in paint. I was drawing perfektly :) but some one else was like this:
    Him: How do you draw?
    Me: Click that button over there and move the mouse while having the button pressed
    Him: What's the mouse?
    Me: It's that thing over there

    -He tries to draw something-

    Him: It doesn't work!
    Me: That's because you clicked the word button.
    Him: What's a word button?
    Me: -Facedesk-

    Here's one I invented:
    Teacher: Open your computers
    Me: -Opens computer-
    Someone: Uhh, how do you open this thing?
    Me: T_T, press that button over there
    Someone: But what do the other buttons do?
    Me: Doesn't matter, just open the computer
    Him: I want to know what they do!
    Me: OPEN THE FRIGGEN COMPUTER!
    Him: How do you do it again?
    Me: -Facedesk-

    I think that a few of these are made up...

    My friend thought that the 0 was on the left side of the keyboard :D.

    I think this thread is evil, it makes me lose so much faith in society that people can be THAT backwards. A smart person should be able to figure out how to use a computer without ever seeing one before, how do you we learnt when we were 5, did we just sit there looking at it going how do I use this? NO we tried random shit till it worked! People should be able to figure this out and I feel sad that people can't.

    P.S. Stop making these up, some are just too outrageous!
