Built into those amazing rectangular pancakes of integrated circuits are preselected obstacles designed by the programmers who have a sense of humor. When the smart phone was first made available to the public in 1994, understandably there was engineering errors that were built in and needed corrections. Redesigns were constantly being implemented as old engineers fixed the problems and young nerds installed new ones. That left the middle-aged group that were bored out of minds and decided to sneak in programs that would piss off the cell phone users. A few of their techniques were to make the off button inoperable when a call came in from a person that the phone owner didn’t want to talk to. As he repeatedly pushed that red END CALL button, nothing would happen. As the recipient got madder, the index finger would slam down on the red button and the phone would continue to ring. Finally, in an act of desperation, the 2 thumbs would converge on the red button and squeeze the snot out of it until the phone’s plastic case started cracking. This allowed moisture into the cell phone and, in the very near future, this would mark the demise of that $500 phone. The phone continued to ring. Another trick of the computer clowns was voice commands. When you asked your search engine a verbal question, your screen showed a phrase that was nowhere near to what you said. Repeating the process only produced new nonsensical gibberish on your phone’s screen. It was at this point you knew you were being duped and laughed at by a bunch of annoying Information Technology creeps. There is now a demand for many new ‘Puter Programmers’ due to a large number of the “funny guys” that have disappeared off the face of the planet mysteriously.
