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?

Hmm
A few years ago at my old work, I had a call from a user complaining that their screen was "all wobbly" - the actual displayed image, not the hardware.

He said this only started during the recent hot spell (it was early summer at the time) and he thought the screen was too warm. I said I'd be over (to our second building), and took a spare screen with me just in case.

On entering his office I spotted the problem.
It was summer. It was hot. He'd got a desktop fan. And put it right on top of the screen, running on maximum.

I moved the fan over to a filing cabinet and all was well.
