Personally, I find tidbits like this (from Networking for Dummies)
hilarious in their own subtle way:

Under Part V: References for Real People, some listed commands include
a "BS" section, "A little BS about most of the commands." Under
Netware is listed:

ENGAGE
What it does: Nothing, but it makes you feel like the Captain.
Syntax: ENGAGE
Who can use it: Picard
BS: Yes.

BRIAN: "You don't have to follow me, you're all individuals!"

CROWD: "Yes! We're all individuals!"

LONE VOICE: "I'm not..."

Name that movie :-)



Your friend and mine,
Matt
