Co-worker: Four hours of clicking around and I couldn't get my files transferred to my new PDA! I plugged... Unplugged... Did all my usual tricks... And, zippo! Can you believe it? So I e-mailed the manufacturer... Faxed the parent company... And left a screamer voice mail at the store re: This piece of junk! Cathy: Did you try reading the instruction manual? Co-worker: Who has time?

The term PDA is so 1990’s no one owns one anymore, update your vocabulary: smart phone!

At least this bozo saved us the trouble by performing the [eye-roll] himself.
HI, MOM. Good Morning, “Cathy” Clan.

Even though the term is out of date, the sentiment is still the same: no one ever bothers to read the instructions.

Sorry, I was so focused on the lower case “re:” that I got distracted from the rest of the comic… Don’t see that often.True, argy.bargy… I know that I don’t read the instructions much. They’re either so poorly written that I can’t follow along, or they’re so elaborate that I get confused. I can usually figure out more by trying things on my own or by reading the section I’m having trouble with.Good morning, Cathy clan! The kids are home with me another day – school was cancelled due to cold (no snow or ice here). Wow, lindz.coop! That’s a lot of snow! Hope your hubby is warm and dry now!

Probably not — they’re not treating the roads around here so nobody can get anywhere — stores are even closing.
