Fun Stuff - Computer Classics

There have been some pretty funny things having to do with our profession over the years; I've collected a bunch of them and finally figured out how to archive them properly.

Although there are no gross or really explicit items in this list, there are some that you wouldn't want to show or tell a pre-teenager (once a kid has hit high school, they've undoubtedly heard much worse), and some of these items are not politically correct. So if you're easily offended, gullible, or just can't appreciate that different people have different senses of humour, don't continue reading. Note that I don't play favorites - everyone is liable to be skewered at one point or another. The only criteria I use is that one of these made me laugh.
