(I work at a museum catering to children. A man and his son are examining our electronic magnifier, which has clear instructions in large type right next to it.)

Dad: *yanking and knocking on machine* “How does this stupid thing work?!”

Son: “Well, did you read the directions?”

Dad: “What directions?!”

Son: “The words under that big sign that says ‘Directions’.”
