i'm just thankful I don't have to explain what a : is anymore vs a ;

Me: type F: and press enter

them: it says bad command or file name

Me: ok, make sure you're using the colon please, f: and enter

them: bad command or file name

me: ok, hold down the shift key and type f: and press enter

them: it says F:\LOGIN arrow thingy

ah, the good old days of walking hotel night shift people to resurrecting
