Ways I've used terms related to technology inappropriately in real life

"Can you pass me a blank basket?"   [referring to an empty gift basket that was to be filled with jam]

"I saw that on my screen"  [where screen = through the car windshield]

"It's like we're a big torrent and you're the only seed."  Followed by a "Oh god, we're defining our relationship in terms of BitTorrent."

And today: 

"Dammit, I meant to turn up the windows while I was over there"  [actually meaning "open the curtains"]

I know there are others, but I've forgotten now.

Ever done this?
