Intern: "Hey Awlex, this function I'm using doesn't work. Can you help me?"
Me: "This function doesn't do what you are expecting. Did you even look at the docs for this function?"
Intern: "No."
Me: "... then start with that"

    My favorite response for juniors has become "What did Google say?". That usually stops the conversation because they don't want to say they didn't Google it.

    Feel free to replace Google with documentation, wiki, readme, etc.
