I used to work at a computer store, as tech support. One day a woman in her 30's comes in and tells me she couldn't install her brand new printer. So I take the user manual, show her all the steps and she tells me she already did those but that when she's done, an error message pops up on the screen. She then got a piece of paper from her pocket, and read the error message she had written down : ''Please connect the USB cable and turn on the machine'' So I asked if she had done this, she replied that she had in fact connected the USB cable but that she didn't think starting her car would be relevant. I then told her ''machine'' meant ''printer'' and then she asked, obviously pissed off, ''How the hell was I supposed to know that ? I thought it meant I'd have to start my car. A machine is a car.'' To this day I still don't know how she got that idea.

Pranking your mom? There's an app for that.
I convinced my mom that the lighter app on the iPhone actually heated up the phone. She was skeptical at first, but after 10 seconds of the top of my phone on a light bulb when she wasn't looking, thoroughly convinced her the iPhone can do anything.
