This! :thumbsup: It's like they're leading you on a magical mystery tour.
To click, or not to click? That is the question.

My peeve is when people refuse to actually say something about XYZ they're trying to convey, but rather most hover over you to tell you where to click, while you act as the brainless extension of their mind, simply because they can't communicate and they lock up and don't know what to say unless they make you point and click for them. Communication is a lost art in the information age.

The one that touches the monitor screens? or the one that doesn't? You might think it's not a big deal. But I really get pissed off if someone touches the monitor's surface just to point something out there. A guy here presses deep into the LCD and says "THIS!" is the problem. I feel like saying "If you don't take the finger off my screen, your finger would be in problem." But seriously, I've at least really requested some of them here not to do it. -humbly. I've ignored these many times. But when I do, after switching off the monitor if see a mess of dirty fingerprints, I get totally annoyed. :| Some dudes go farther & use the back side of pen/marker to point out a line of code that might be causing a problem. :doh: The funnier side of it - the little cousin I have around here, tries to do the same. When he does, I stop him & teach him some gadget-manners - i.e why we shouldn't touch computers/Notebooks screens so hard ,etc. He listens & waits only to ask me back the same question when I'm using my tablet. The grumpy kid certainly feels I'm a Hypocrite. :)

I touch myself, but I don't touch others'. Um, let me clarify. I touch my own monitor, but I'm conscientious not to touch other people's monitors. Hmmm, that still doesn't sound right.... Marc

Well long time no see! What you been up to? As it turns out, you're stuck with me for a few months while I dust off the cobwebs and play developer again to make an HTML5 project that's gonna help send my arse to Los Angeles.

I've often wanted to create a hybrid LCD/Van de Graaff generator to help make the fingers off point for me.

Haha: I agree: I hate it if someone touches the screen, either with finger or pen and will always stop them. It's just bloody rude.

Ya gotta yell at them. Stop, turn around and ask what they're trying to get you to do. We had this one guy who would just "click here. Here here no just click here. here. Now go there..click on that, right here...here. no here" He sounded like he'd drank 2 gallons of red bull. Finally had to bark at him to get him to stop. Nicely. But it was what it was.

He was a great guy. He just communicated so very poorly that he'd resort to this nonsense.

That feels awesome. More awesomer because now you wouldn't get more time to hangout with all those beautiful chicks that you had on your list, that I always envied you about. :-D I've been doing the same Microsoft corporate applications. Super cool to know you are doing HTML5!

Better they touch my screen than touch me. X|
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Get touch screens, I worked with one recently and realised I am a toucher when instructing, it is really fucking irritating to have the screen react when you are just trying to point out something. Get some screen cleaner, I need to do it weekly, I do quite a bit of instructing :-O
