Sure, I was able to kick out a few PHP pages the other day without knowing what the hell I was doing. And I was able to debug those pages with no problem. But that doesn't make up for the offense I just committed.
I was attempted to charge up my blackberry via USB cable. Without looking, I plug it into my laptop. Suddenly I notice I'm getting a "Cable has been disconnected" warning. I fiddle with the cable at both ends and nothing. That leaves me to go back to IT for help. The IT dude comes in, fiddles with the cables a bit, and the connection seems wacky. I say to him "All of this happened right as I plugged in my USB cable", so I unplug it. Like magic, my connection works. IT guy then says "Plug your USB back in". I do, and the connection goes. IT dude lets out a sigh. He walks over and says "I want to show you something. THESE are your USB ports." Apparently, I was plugging into my Ethernet port...and surprisingly, the cable fit into it. I apologized profusely for wasting his time and assured him that I do actually know what a USB port is, I was just not looking. I still can't believe I did that. I've done some dumbass things in my time, but this was by far one of the the dumbest in terms of computer-related.
