Cringe!
Chickenlady winces, "I told a Hugh Grant/Divine Brown joke to my dad, pretending that Ms Brown was chewing gum so she'd be more American. Instead I just appeared to be still giving the blow-job. Even as I'm writing this I'm cringing inside."

and another thing...
...why does it take six clicks to clear the 'document history' of the start menu?
I contend that most computer users are male.
Most software writers are male.
Most porn users are male.
So why is it so hard to avoid embarrassing ourselves?
Also a Top Tip here: Second Hand shops of the "cash converters" variety (because that was their name) - Don't sell 2nd hand computers pre-loaded with porn. It will needlessly embarrass a young Incredible Sulk, when he shows his new PC off to an interested mother.
Also, for shopper comfort, don't hire staff with voices that would put Brian Blessed / Loud Howard to shame. I only needed to hear technical details at normal volume; "Pentium 3" is better than "PEEENNNNTTTIIIUUUMMM THHHRRREEEEEEE!"
