What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

With all the planes going missing, I have to wonder if there's a Bond villain hiding in a secret volcano lair.

If they don't find this plane, then this only adds to the conspiracy theory that they are stealing planes to be used in future terrorist attacks.
Anyhow, I hope they find the plane to bring some closure for the families.

BTW, this[^] is what my Win8 desktop at work looks like. Notice the retro Start button (courtesy of Start8).

It's only "too complicated" when they compare the procedure with getting you to do it for them.
This is where you start charging money for your time (what a concept)...

That will be my next OS, having completely skipped the 8 experience, with the exception of a test rig and my phone. The phone actually just updated to 8.1 a couple of days ago, and so far I like it...my phone now calls me Master! (cortana)...haven't actually thought of a good use for it yet.

I dodged a similar bullet like this: The family all use Apple products. I and my grandson are the only two on Windows machines (because I gave him a laptop.) I meet any request for help with: "Sorry, I know less about your Apple than you do."
My grandson is the only one that I assist (lovingly).

I'm glad now these days that being the baby of 5 (which equals good for nothin) that my siblings can't bring themselves to ask little Ronnie (53 now) about this stuff.

I had to help my 13 year old nephew setup an iCloud account on his iPad, and my elderly parents do the same on theirs.
I feel very old all of a sudden saying this (I'm 25) but these kids today, they've completely skipped the PC generation where you had to build your own computer, install your own OS, experiment with different OS' etc and jumped straight to tablets/smartphones where you take it out of the box and it just works.
We've somehow gone backwards!

I know that all too much. Luckily my brothers, one older and one younger are fairly proficient. I class us as older brother is hardware, I do software/gadgets and younger brother is easier for my parents to get to do things as he still lives with them.
I have long held a policy of family I can't escape helping, if I charge them, I would have retrospective bills for 20 years of childcare/rent etc haha.
I think the worst I had was helping my grandmother's neighbour over the phone with her printer and iPad. Not owning the printer, I was very much going in blind (N)
Friends either owe me money or owe me a pint. I was working in Support for 2 years and could charge £85+VAT p/h for my time, when I point that out to them a £3.20 pint isn't expensive.
