Over dit geluid

This 3.6-second clip delivers the famous tech-support line 'turn it off and on again' in a flat, matter-of-fact voice, as if fixing a computer were the simplest job in the world. It feels dryly funny and instantly relatable to anyone who has ever wrestled with a frozen device, landing like a knowing shrug from the help desk. The line comes from the British sitcom The IT Crowd.

Pro-tip

Let the line land after the failure is clear, because its humour comes from sounding like the most obvious advice in the world. Play it before anyone sees the problem and the joke feels random instead of painfully accurate.

Goed om te weten

Put it straight after the crash or error that prompts the advice, so it works as the answer to the problem on screen. Open the sequence with the Windows XP Error sound, follow with this line, then close on the Awkward Moment sound to let the failed fix hang in the air.
