The cute things they say

A user asked me once if I could get our order management system to generate a report of all the orders it didn't know about.

After the few seconds it took my brain to try and comprehend the sheer idiocy of what I'd been asked, I replied, "I'll see what I can do, but before that, could you ask your children to write a comprehensive list of all the words they don't know and let me know how you get on?"
