If once artists were a group of people shrouded in mystery on their summit of wit, exclusiveness, and importance, then as of recently, the tables have drastically turned. Now, it’s the chic IT guys and gals that have taken the position of mystique, and not without reason. See, our lives are undeniably turning tech, and, first of all, we need someone to make it all techy. Secondly - without the IT professionals to explain stuff, the codes and such are just a bunch of meaningless numbers taking us nowhere, leaving us stumped. Yet, as discussed a couple of times before, those in the unknown tend to make fun of the things they do not comprehend, to make them look less ethereal and more earthly. Exactly because of that, there are plenty of IT jokes trying to explain the purpose and the magic of IT to those dimwitted on the subject while making the professionals look down on us with a sparkle of amusement in their glimmering wise eyes.
Sure, as with anything that’s made out of cogs and gears, even if imaginable, IT things are bound to break, and it is even folklore of a kind mentioning crashing websites, apps, and the disasters that are printer machines. Yes, we’re adding printers to our IT category since someone still had to program them. Of course, the bigger the failure, the more funny IT jokes you can milk out of the situation. So, there you have it; everything in life can be funny, it’s only a matter of an unexpected failure, a misunderstanding, or a case of complete ignorance.
Without ruminating on our thoughts about the importance of technology and where the roots of fun are, let’s just scroll down below to the best jokes we could find, shall we? Once you’re finished reading them, give them an evaluation on a decimal scale and share these silly jokes with your friends and your foes.

What is the biggest lie in the entire universe? "I have read and agree to the Terms & Conditions."
Pezor Zass 3 years ago
In my job i have to send out information to students that's not exactly technical, but makes you pay attention to get it properly. It's super obvious that most students glance at it and move on, and i blame all the T&Cs that we all ignore for it. Sometimes you actually have to read all the words or bad things will happen, folks.

"I’ve given up social media for the New Year and am trying to make friends outside Facebook while applying the same principles. Every day, I walk down the street and tell passersby what I’ve eaten, how I feel, what I did the night before, and what I will do tomorrow. Then I give them pictures of my family, my dog, and me gardening. I also listen to their conversations and tell them I love them. And it works. I already have three people following me—two police officers and a psychiatrist."

See?” He said he did and thanked me. The next morning, I got a call from another developer asking, “Why is your client asking us if we’re fluent in Chinese?”

CAPS LOCK – Preventing Login Since 1980.
Cassidy ChillRose 3 years ago
