Any friend who has ever asked me about why their computer is extremely slow, takes forever to open things, has pop-ups come up constantly ... to just downright not working anymore: I don't know what I did.
Me: Stop looking at the pr0n.
Them: ... But why would looking at porn hurt my computer?
Me: * Blink. *
Them: No seriously, I mean I look at sport scores, newspapers and stuff too.
Me: Not only am I 100% positive it's your endeavors to find more and more fucked up shit to get off to, you're probably going to have to get a new computer.
Them: Has this ever happened to you, what do I do?
Me: No it has not happened to me. I don't look at porn for a variety of reasons, one of them being every single person I have ever met who has had a problem with their computer it is related to said porn.

Mom: I don't see the site updates you were supposed to do for our group's site.
Me: They are there trust me. Hit Refresh a few times on your browser.
Mom: I don't know what this Refresh thing is you're talking about. I don't have a "browser," this is a PC. Just do the site changes before rehearsal tonight.
PS...what do you want for Xmas?Me: Look. They are done, believe me. Look at the top of your screen at the buttons. Hot some of them. It's ok, really.
Mom: I'll look later, but i don't think I have the same stuff on this computer that you do. Remember to think about Xmas too.
Me: ....
(*In all fariness, this is specific to moms, and we all have these conversations, but it's in the same spirit.)

My favourite is when my mother calls me, and I explain why nothing is showing up on her computer, or vanished as she seems to forget about Windows' Taskbar all the time, haha.
For non-porn related issues, and issues that are related to the software I've developed I'm actually pretty sane in explanation and will say the same thing three times in different ways until it actually dawns on them to do what I'm saying.
I have a lot more disdain for people who don't know how to use e-mail. Those people drive me nuts.
01. People who don't set up reminders on their Meeting Requests.
02. People who don't look at your Calendars to see your unavailble.
03. People who write their entire e-mail in the subject line.
04. People who do not write a subject line, nor have text in their e-mail, but have a Word Document attachment.
05. People that do not understand the reasoning behind CC.
06. Anyone from the HR Department.
