  1. Re:Laptops. on Top 10 Ways To Lose Your Data · · Score: 1
    I can go you one better. Actual conversation at the shop where I work:

    The Cast:
    K - Me
    C - Customer
    Cb - Customer's buddy

    C: "My laptop has...uhhh...liquid damage"
    K: "What kind of liquid?"
    Cb: "Just tell him what happened."
    (moment of silence)
    C: "I uh...kinda pissed in my laptop."
    K: (trying to keep a straight face) "Pissed? In your laptop"
    C: "Yeah. I got drunk last night and pissed on it by mistake." (NO shit, really?)
    K: "Umm, ok, we're kinda of backed up right now, so I have no idea when we'll be able to get to it." (LYING through my teeth!)

    The machine set on the incoming shelf for 3 WEEKS before any of us would touch it. And when we did, there were legs eaten off chips. The guy comes back to get the computer and says he's going to see if Dell will fix it under warranty. I said good luck and walked away laughing.
