User: My program stopped working.
Jumpie: What did you change?
User: Nothing.
Jumpie: What did you change?
User: Nothing!
Jumpie: What did you change?
User: Well, this one thing, but it didn't do anything.
Jumpie: Change it back.

Wanders off grumbling about how stupid support is.
User: (from off in the distance) Hey! It works!

QEDude: Hey Emma, I can't open all the books in help at the same time anymore. Can you fix it?
Emma: Did it work last version?
QEDude: Yes. what did you change?
Emma: Nothing. I've not started working on that yet.
QEDude: What did you change?
Emma: Nuh-thing.
QEDude: What did you change?
Emma: Nothing! Absolutely nothing! Less than nothing! I haven't worked on that yet.
QEDude: Well, let me know when you fix it.
QEDude wanders off whistling...
Emma: But I can't fix it. I don't know what happened to break it.
...
Jumpie: ...and that's exactly what happened.
