I know everyone hates when people ask them for help with fixing IT related stuff.

I have a different approach to all similar questions. I don't get upset or anything, I just tell them that the device they have is a little bit shit, and suggest them buying a new expensive one that is better and will do all that. Your router isn't working as you want? Buy a Cisco (a real one with $1k+ price tag, not that Cisco branded Linksys garbage). Your printer isn't working as you want? Buy some high end Brother stuff. Etc...

After first few times they just stop asking...

People in my tow are to thick and persistent for that. I am always telling how shit things are as i am helping initially. They just come back and think you are a miracle worker

Me: "Just ask on stack exchange."

Friend "Why?"

Me: "Because... I use it too...

You see? Every programmer is as dumb as you are.

What makes us different is that we are not lazy like you. We find the answer on forum, on internet instead of blaming it to our friend.

Now, watch me getting on stackexchange. I will demonstrate to you how to ask a question on a forum. So that in the future you don't have to rely on me again, okay?"

*going to stackexchange*
