# A LITTLE HUMOR ? BECAUSE WE ALL NEED IT

The Internet has enough arguments.

Let's have some laughs instead. :)

============================================================================== GEEK HUMOR

Why do programmers prefer dark mode?

Because light attracts bugs.

Why do Java developers wear glasses?

Because they don't C#.

There are only 10 types of people in the world:

Those who understand binary and those who don't.

A SQL query walks into a bar, approaches two tables and asks:

"Mind if I join you?"

How many programmers does it take to change a light bulb?

None.

That's a hardware problem.

I changed my password to "incorrect."

Now whenever I forget it, the computer tells me:

"Your password is incorrect."

Why was the computer cold?

It left its Windows open.

Why did the computer go to the doctor?

It caught a virus.

The doctor recommended more RAM.

============================================================================== INTERNET HUMOR
==============

The Internet:

Where everyone knows everything...

...and nobody knows why the printer isn't working.

TECH SUPPORT:

"Have you tried turning it off and back on?"

USER:

"Yes."

TECH SUPPORT:

"Did you actually?"

USER:

"No."

My Wi-Fi went down for five minutes.

So I had to talk to my family.

They seem like nice people.

============================================================================== BBS HUMOR
=========

You know you're an old-school computer geek when...

* The sound of a modem connecting makes you smile.

* You remember when "going online" required hanging up the telephone.

* 56K still sounds pretty fast.

* ANSI art looks better to you than half the modern web.

* You know what NO CARRIER means.

* You remember downloading a 1 MB file and thinking it was HUGE.

* You understand why somebody yelling "GET OFF THE PHONE!"
could ruin your entire evening.

* You've ever waited until after midnight because long-distance
telephone rates were cheaper.

* You know that a "door" isn't necessarily something you walk through.

* You think a computer waiting for callers is perfectly normal.

============================================================================== ONE LAST THOUGHT
================

A modern computer:

16 CPU cores
32 GB RAM
2 TB NVMe
Gigabit Internet

What we're doing with it:

Running a terminal emulator so we can pretend it's 1994.

```
AND THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!
```
