Robert Belfour - What's Wrong With You

Aaron Tippin - There Ain't Nothin' Wrong With The Radio
Sade - Mr Wrong
Weird Al Yankovic - Everything You Know Is Wrong
Queen - Liar
The Sex Pistols - Liar

Moby - Everything is wrong

And make sure you regularly announce why you're playing songs with WRONG in the title

You've so got to play "Everything I do" by Bryan Adams just to add insult to injury (apologies to anyone who actually may still like this song after a trillion plays of it

)

Used to irritate the hell out of me when customers who were 'qualified network engineers' started ranting and raving about connection problems over the phone at me, and how it was obviously our fault. 99 times out of 100 it wasn't. Sometimes I'd find the customer was trying to ping his home workstation from work, pinging a 192.168.0.100 and wondering why it wouldn't get there (private network range used by large numbers of companies internally, its not internet accessible), other times it might be that one of our peering partners was experiencing hardware failures and traffic was marginally slower due to congestion (omg... 50msec instead of 30msec, we're all gonna die, blah, blah, blah)

I think what really got on my tits were the customers who stuck every letter they could find after their name in the signature whilst simultaneously displaying an IT know how similar to a slug. In one example I've got saved "MSCE MCP CCNA CCNP A+ N+ BA(Hons)", who couldn't even understand that he'd plugged the ADSL line connector into the LAN hole on the router, despite them being different sizes, and clearly labelled.

Classic Red Dwarf

I do admit to being one of the people that sometimes gets very vocal if I've exhausted all of the options at my end. I'll only ever do it if I know I've tried everything though, which is rare

Keep us updated on the legal battle that I'm sure will happen sometime

I would just send him an email with the word BOLLOCKS in it.

SidewinderINC · 29-11-2007, 14:39

Why use words when a picture will suffice?

So far, it has been quite quiet here at shock towers. No emails, no OfCom barging through the doors and the Police have strangely stayed away.

I wonder why that is then?

Because he was a bellend.

I may have just wanted to say bellend again, but the statement stands.
