I know what comedy show you're talking about because I just saw an episode of it - Little Britain (called Little Britain USA over here). The clip was with a little girl going in the hospital to get a tonsillectomy and...computer says no, she's scheduled for a hip replacement. Hilarious but true!<br /><br />Ugh and don't get me started on the horrid "on call" thing...I swore after dating one comp nerd I'd never date/marry another one who has to potentially get called for stupid computer errors in the dead of night.

What foresight.<br /><br />Working with the things, I know exactly how flawed they can be. I am carrying a phone this very evening just to be able to deal with any problems that may ensue if certain computer systems in China decide to throw their toys out of the pram.<br /><br />:0)<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />PMPlastic Mancunianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01864213919913476168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4170913783015287649.post-47569774234831464992012-07-26T13:26:34.895+01:002012-07-26T13:26:34.895+01:00Almost all of my electronic stuff is suitably cowe...Almost all of my electronic stuff is suitably cowed, even my alarm clock has never buzzed at me.

My favorite is when you're at a store or a doctor's office and you start arguing with the person who's serving you for some reason, and they respond with, "Well, that's what the computer says!" looking at you like you're the stupid one even if it's clearly obvious that the computer is wrong.<br /><br />Computers are getting so evil in their takeover plans they even make some people think they're infallible and cause them to not be able to think on their own.
