It is not funny. Really, it just isn't funny.
Like two bald men fighting over a comb, Manchester City and Manchester United have been left to battle for European football's scraps after a Black Wednesday in the Champions League.
Okay, have a good giggle then, I did. Europa League for City and United just seems so well deserved.

Your profile says you are Usian, so that'll make you a United fan.
As for rubbing it in, I'll take a fecking bottle scented oil and massage it into every last pore if it annoys the Mancs.

The M62 in the Manchester area has been closed to high sided vehicles due to the gales of laughter coming from Liverpool!
(I know we're not in Europe at all this year, but it doesn't make it any less funny)

Sometimes I forget that not everyone is really proficient with computers, certain expressions that I use daily aren't known by everyone.
We've been doing a bit of reporting work for our Marketing department. As I walk back from the kitchen past this guys desk, he calls me over and shows me a problem he was having with a report. Looked like a caching problem so I said 'Do a hard refresh'
He says 'OK', then hit his F5 key really hard. I was a bit like this

Was quite funny though

Back in time when desktop computers did not have a delay on the power button...
I made a small label "Any" and stuck it on the power switch.
Some poor schmuck was surprised his system powered down and did not continue when he hit the 'Any' key.
Schenectady? What am I doing in Schenectady?

When I was real young and just starting out with computers I bought my first PC (a 80286) at a used store. I didn't have anyone to teach me anything so I had to figure everything out all by myself. On day I was running an application I found already on the HDD when I got the PC and it popped up and told me to press the ANY Key!?!? I swear I searched for a good hour for a button marked ANY before I finally smacked the keyboard and realized my stupidity.

It is the same for anyone who is in a business with its own jargon.
Remember hearing an interview with an ex footballer who was coaching young kids now, and how he had had to adapt his language. He yelled at one lad to squeeze hard (meaning to push the defensive line as high up the pitch as possible to deny the attackers any room in front of them) and of course this kid just ran up to the lad he was marking and gave him a really, really tight hug.
When I was about 6 or 7, my brother 4 or 5, we were flying a kite with my dad in attendance. My brother had controls and my dad was offering advice. When my dad said "let it go" meaning to let plenty of string out my brother, of course, simply let go of the handles all together. We chased that thing across many a field before it came down.
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

I thought you were going to say that the lad shat himself.

I feel your pain. I told someone once to press the F5 key and they pressed the F key and then the 5 key.
