Some people have this incredibly annoying habit of seeing anything remotely tech related as magic and they switch off their brain, assuming that they could never understand it.
Them: "My computer is broken"
Me:"Whats the issue?"
Them: "i dont know, i tried to open my email and its got some error message and wont open"
Me:" what does the error message say?"
Them:"err, cannot open email during update, please wait until update is complete"
Me:"is your email app updating?"
Them:"yes.
Me:"wait for it to finish and try again..."
(Obviously tbats not a real scenario, but im not good at examples and just wanted to get the general gist across)
