Recently a group of computer scientists
(all males) announced
that computers should also be referred to as being female.
Their reasons for drawing this conclusion follow:
Five reasons to believe computers are female:
-
No one but the Creator understands their
internal logic.
-
The native language they use to communicate
with other
computers is incomprehensive to everyone else.
-
The message "Bad command or file
name" is about as
informative as, "If you don't know why I'm mad at you,
then I'm certainly not going to tell you."
-
Even your smallest mistakes are stored in
long-term
memory for later retrieval.
-
As soon as you make a commitment to one, you
find
yourself spending half you paycheck on accessories for it.
However, another group of computer scientists (all female)
think that computers should be referred to as if they were male.
Their reasons follow:
-
They have a lot of data, but are still
clueless.
-
They are supposed to help you solve problems,
but half the time they ARE the problem.
-
As soon as you commit to one you realize
that, if you had
waited a little longer, you could have obtained a better model.
-
In order to get their attention, you have to
turn them on.
-
Big power surges knock them out for the rest
of the day.
