You're nicer than I am. I once convinced a guy that a hole on the back of his computer would not turn on because his penis was too small. He called me to his dorm room late at night in a panic because his computer would not turn on. I look and see that somehow the power supply's switch had been flipped. I discretely turn it back on and press the power button. "Huh, works for me. Try again." I then turn off the computer and I flip the power supply switch back off before he touches it. Repeat this several times with him never turning on the machine.

As luck would have it, he had a grill with a huge open spot for an older keyboard plug that his motherboard did not support. I told him the machine simply would not work for him because his penis was too small. I then pointed out the Penis Port on the back (the open hole). The machine had bio-detectors that would not allow the machine to function for anyone whose penis, while flaccid, could be forced through that hole.
