Word of the day: Parrot Help |
|
Parrot help is "help" that actually hinders whatever you're trying to do, the way a parrot messing with your shoelaces "helps" you tie them.
Use as a verb: "Quit parrot-helping me!"

1. Like my uber-geek buddy trying to help... |
|
... with a computer problem; by the time he's done "helping" -- which involves him either looming over me or leaning into me from one side or the other, and attacking the keyboard in a hypersonic blur -- I'm not only "loster" than before, but confused and suffering from rapid-motion-eyestrain!
Or is it something else?
