My favourite response doing an on-sie IT Support call on a customer site:

Me: "Hi, You logged a call with the helpdesk, I'm here to take a look at
what's happening and seen if I can fix it. Is now a convenient time or do
you want me to come back later ?"

Him (obviously in middle of very involved spreadsheet): "If I let you go
away, you're never going to come back, are you ?"

Regards
Evan Harris

I had one I was supporting a couple of weeks ago.

Me: Open a browser.
Her: What's a browser?

Me: Go to this website: www.blahblahblah.com
Her: What's a website?
Me: Is there someone else there you'd rather have do this?
Her: YES!
Me: (silently) Thank God!
