Computer stupidity site... great for wasting time when you should be tucked up in bed... 
One of my favourites:
I had this conversation recently with a lady who swore she had been using computers since forever.
Tech Support: "All right. Now click 'OK'." 
Customer: "Click 'OK'?" 
Tech Support: "Yes, click 'OK'." 
Customer: "Click 'OK'?" 
Tech Support: "That's right. Click 'OK'." 
Customer: "So I click 'OK', right?" 
Tech Support: "Right. Click 'OK'." 
Pause. 
Customer: "I clicked 'Cancel'." 
Tech Support: "YOU CLICKED 'CANCEL'???" 
Customer: "That's what I was supposed to do, right?" 
Tech Support: "No, you were supposed to click 'OK'." 
Customer: "I thought you said to click 'Cancel'." 
Tech Support: "NO. I said to click 'OK'." 
Customer: "Oh." 
Tech Support: "Now we have to start over." 
Customer: "Why?" 
Tech Support: "Because you clicked 'Cancel'." 
Customer: "Wasn't I supposed to click 'Cancel'?" 
Tech Support: "No. Forget that. Let's start from the top." 
Customer: "Ok." 
I spent the next fifteen minutes re-constructing the carefully crafted setup for this lady's unique computer.
Tech Support: "All right. Now, are you ready to click 'OK'?" 
Customer: "Yes." 
Tech Support: "Great. Now click 'OK'." 
Pause.
Customer: "I clicked 'Cancel'."
