Large User Groups Cause Spontaneous Greying

tiny69 writes "According to Microsoft, a Person's hair turns grey if there are more than 500 users in a User Group. Supposedly, the grey hair does not affect the functionality of the User Group. Microsoft claims to have a solution to fix the problem. How many people do you know that have hair that has turned grey? This web site has a large collection of links to humorous Microsoft Knowledge Base articles."

    This is slashdot, where User Friendly is the shit. And about as funny, imo.

    Go ahead, flamebate me- point is that a sense of humor is a highly relative thing- one man's OMFGWTFROTFLMAO!!!1 is another man's "man, I just wasted $minutes of my life on this shit."

    Cases in point : Saturday Night Live and User Friendly.

    it got modded by mods who also happened to not find it funny. personally, i normally don't find geek humour funny, but some of these i liked. e.g.

    • Q269916: Office Assistant Makes Sudden Loud Noise
    • Q261186: Computer Randomly Plays Classical Music
    • Q264642: Scenery Shudders Violently When You Fly the Concorde
    • Q284895: Text Is Typed by Office Assistant Sounds When Microphone Is Turned off or Unplugged (actually super annoying when it happens i bet)

    sure it's not deep lasting humour but it's ok for a quick laugh.

    others are just lame (Cookies Lost After Upgrading to Windows XP, whatever could that mean, or Q323927: How to Resurrect a Dead Character, yes i bet it's not a game), or like Q174630: Windows Restarts Continuously with Blue Screen, just not funny. at least for anyone who's had to deal with windows computers.

    that page needs cutting down.
