    So, here's my experiences, that I can come to think of now:
     
    - After I've fixed a computer for a friend or relative, they always blame me for every future problem.
    - Two guys were talking in an MMORPG I used to play, and one of them said that he overclocked his hard drive and his computer is now more than twice as fast.
    - Whenever I tell someone that I like computers and technology, they always assume I just post stuff on Facebook and play Farmville all day long.
    - My mom freak out every time an email from someone she doesn't know, slips through the spam filter and end up in her inbox. Something worth mentioning is that she use hotmail, so she freaks out a lot.
     
    Edit: fixed the formatting.

    Hehe. Know that double click thing pretty well.
    I remember back in after-school-club (Direct translation from danish (atleast what we called it)) when people played racing games on the playstation 1, and they sat and turned the controller. Motion controls, now with 100% less motion control.

    Thought it would be fun to make a topic about, all of our experiences with all the people, who doesn't really understand all the tech.
    Note: Don't make this too harsh on them. You need to help them, not yell at them.
    I'll go first:
    So my mom has a daycare. And one day I am sitting on the floor with my laptop. And one of the kids, with real dirty hands come and put his hand on the screen. Guess he thought it was a touch screen. Still haven't gotten it off, and it was 3 months ago.
    My grandmother is scared of getting rid of the computer, because she thinks it will cut the power to her house.
