  Known Lazy Bastard
  KLB
  
     <abuse> (KLB) A term, used among technical support staff, for
     a user who repeatedly asks for help with problems whose
     solutions are clearly explained in the documentation, and
     persists in doing so after having been told to RTFM.
  
     KLBs are singled out for special treatment (i.e. ridicule),
     especially if they have been heard to say "It's so boring to
     read the manual!  Why don't you just tell me?".  The deepest
     pit in Hell is reserved for KLBs whose questions reveal total
     ignorance of the basic concepts (e.g., "How do I make a font
     in Excel?", "Where do I turn on my RAM?"), and who refuse
     to accept that their questions are neither simple nor
     well-formed.
