Just heard this one:
ME: OK, now I want you to right-click on the main window of the application.
THEM: How do I do that?
ME: Just move the mouse over that window and then right-click.
THEM: OK. [tap-tap-tap-tap-tap] Nothing happened.
ME: Hmmm... You're sure your mouse is over the main window?
THEM: The blue one, right?
ME: Yup. And the application is active, right? The title bar isn't gray?
THEM: Yeah, it's active.
ME: OK. Uh... Try to right-click on it again?
THEM: OK. [tap-tap-tap-tap-tap] Still nothing.
ME: Wait... Why does it sound like you're typing on the keyboard?
THEM: Well, you told me to write "click" on it.
ME: [silently hanging myself with the phone cord]
