The magic internet box says Linksys on it. Some of the cables in it are red, should they be green? Maybe the internets only work if they see a green cable, you know, like a green traffic light?
You might think so, but that’s a common misconception with broadband - the red cables actually help the data flow faster.

Stop, STOP! I can only dissolve so many memories with liquor.
My favorite is “It says ‘Link-ski’”.
I remember working tech support for creative labs through college. “Please try rebooting your computer, and call us back when it’s done”. You learn to recognize the people who will take hours to do simple troubleshooting…
Years ago, I convinced my parents to ditch the phone line and use an early VoIP company. When things went wrong with our ISP, I would call the 1-800 tech support line, who would immediately ask me to reboot the modem…
It was nearly impossible to get them to understand (a) of course I already tried that and (b) that would disconnect the phone call we are currently on.
It’s unbelievable how many times I have pretended to reboot my PC to placate a tech support moron on the phone.

ipconfig/renewOkay, it’s at that black bootup screen now, now windows is loading…
“Oh, my spouse was on their cell phone and they hung up now. The Internet is working now. Thank you.” Hangs Up
Internet Explorer? Is that my ISP?
Internet SPlorer, yes yes.
Sorry, I meant Netscape Navigator
This gave me a good laugh
Never working any job that requires me to speak directly to customers. Having worked in a call center for far too long, all I can say is fuck that noise.
If you ask a customer this question, you’re bad at your job. But I don’t blame you for flexing on grandma so you feel better, because we will never get to retire like she did.
I mean Netgear isn’t even that bad of an answer. Like we’re in the right chapter of the dictionary. Yes my dictionary is by category not alphabetical. Bet you don’t even own a physical dictionary. Come to think of it, me neither. Huh.
