It’s annoying when people Do The Stupid and I tell them how to Fix The Stupid and not Do The Stupid and they coincidentally and with no comprehension Do Some Other Stupid that fixes or, in most cases, hides the original Stupid and then are like, “I didn’t do what you said and it works!” With the implication there that I don’t know what I’m talking about.

In those cases I just say nothing, because what’s the point? I have infinitely more knowledge and capability than they do and I revel in that silently. Most of the time their Stupid returns with a vengeance. Then I laugh and no longer help at all.
