sorry, you are mistaken. They just changed it.

My dad has been working in a new project manager role which at times, when he is not busy forcing me create high speed broadband 'design packs' for free for him, sees him spending time at the computer creating 'design packs' and getting paid for it. Sucks.

Anyways, most of these design packs involve creating and overlaying plans for various fibre optic runs throughout complex mazes of phone exchanges, and it requires a lot of cutting, pasting, dragging and drawing on the computer. After doing two design packs for Dad, I left him to do the last one on his own while I went and showered.

"So do you still cut using 'CTRL + C' on this?"

"No, they changed it recently to 'CTRL + D' - as in 'D for Douchebag' you know?"

"Oh ok."

*** I walk upstairs, shower and then come back down past Dad at the computer staring at an untouched floor diagram.***

"It doesn't work."

"What do you mean?"

"Look... when I press "CTRL + D" nothing happens. This computer is stupid."

"Ha... um... yeah... about that 'D for Douchebag' thing..."
