Last night before I went to bed I had a discussion with 314, Ric, 5star and others about people having absolutely no-life and being attached to their computer. The discussion went further after I mentioned one of Ric's tutorials he left in the Tech Help section of the forums. Needless to say the discussion took this turn:
Have you ever wondered why people need tutorials for help? Well 314 and I saw this as an issue as we started browsing the internet and found some pretty shocking tutorials on how to perform various tasks in one's day-to-day life.
Here are some of the websites I found that humored me:
1. How to use a spoon: http://www.wikihow.com/Use-a-Spoon
2. How to use a light switch: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPXSHY-eqe8[/ame]
3. How to use a mouse: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2leftW7E_s[/ame]
and finally, my favorite (and Christy's and 314's)
4. How to use the internet: http://www.livinginternet.com/i/iu.htm
If you guys find other tutorials that seem ridiculous please feel free to post.
This honestly shows how people cannot function in society if the internet does not show them how to do it. People seem to be at a lost of how to do basic things without a PC telling them step-by-step!
