This is a question Clients Are Stupid

I once had to train a client on how to use their new website. I said, "point the mouse at that button." They looked at me with a quizzical expression, picked up the mouse and held it to the screen. Can you beat this bit of client stupidity?

Previous Job
One previous job was as shop assistant in Game, Wigan.
We reguarly had people coming in who didn't deserve to own a PC.
Every single day someone would try to return a game saying it was faulty, typical conversation went like this:
Them: My game is faulty.
Me: What seems to be the problem with it.
Them: It won't start.
Me: Ok... (looks at game box), What Spec Pc have you got?
Them: Eh?
Me: What specification is your pc?
Them: What do you mean?
Me: What bits are in your pc, you know Processor, memory that kind of thing.
Them: Dunno... Ummmm its a packard bell.
Me: Riiiigghhhttt...

The Should be a Potential PC owner test, the amount of times I had to hold back from slapping the customer with their own game I can't even count.
