Default Windows frozen, what to do - humor

Wife texts husband on a cold winter’s morning:
"Windows frozen, won't open."


Husband texts back:
"Gently pour some lukewarm water over it."


Wife texts back 5 minutes later:
"Computer is really screwed up now


I have had days like that!

I've received similar.
Got back to my desk from a meeting and had voicemail
First voicemail from wife "Help Netflix isn't working and the kids wants to watch a movie"
Second voicemail from wife "Never mind <4 year old son> told me how to reboot the router"

Hell, I've had decades like that. I'm reliably informed that this is because I am an idiot.

Take a computer course and learn programming. Write a better operating system and call it doors, passages, or better yet Free Ways. Make the new operating system avaialable to all for free and put Micro Soft out of business. That’s my recommendation.

My younger cousin was a whiz kid on computers. He is 13 years younger than me. He could work the computer better than I could when he was 2.

That is why I bought my new PC with Win 7 pro, I had to track down a retailer (Micro Center) who still made their own brand with 7!
