You ever had this where non-techies would wind you up and use your knowledge against you?

An example, yesterday my uncle was making me panic after i installed my 980 Ti

The conversation

Uncle: Asim, come quick! There is a problem with your computer

Me: Whats the problem?

Uncle: I don't know if this is supposed to happen, but your power supply is sparking after you installed that new graphics card

Me: Holy Crap! Really? (This is a PC Builder's worst nightmare and i know that i am having problems with my PSU)

Uncle: Yep!

Me: "rushes upstairs"." I Exhale" Are you trolling me?

Uncle: Yep. You got rekt (he actually said that. He used to play a lot of Modern Warfare back in the day)

Me: Shakes head, facepalm

I don't surround myself with people who "troll techies" whatever it can mean.

I don't believe your uncle said that, at all. 

 

What do they know of England, who only England know?

"Well that's what I always said I wanted to be remembered for, for being honest. Nothing else is worth a damn"
