Remember Ursula?
I loved the show, "Mad About You." I liked most of the characters and even the bizarre ones seemed like they could be real people. But they weren't. At least I didn't think they were, until I met...we'll call her Tiffany. She's just like Ursula, only not funny. And that's the problem.
Today's adventure: Me trying to explain how to save a document. I told her to hit the "save" icon.
"Which one is that?"
"The one that looks like a floppy disk."
"Which one looks like a floppy disk? I don't see it."
"It's about fourth from the left."
"I don't see it." I got up and pointed to it.
"That one."
"Not that one!"
"Okay, not that one."
"That doesn't look like a floppy disk. It looks like a TV."
"If you think so. Just press it."
"Don't you think it looks like a TV?"
"Not really, no."
"Why would they make it look like a TV?"
"I don't know. Just press it."
"I don't know how they expect anyone to understand these programs if they are going to make things so unclear."
It's just too much to comprehend.
