Something I've noticed is people sticking things like "If there is an issue, please contact your system administrator" in places where it makes no sense. Eg, a confirmation email from a website telling you contact your system administrator if it wasn't you who made a request.
Even if you are in an environment with a system administrator (maybe people use this website from a college campus computer network or something), what the fuck are they gonna be able to do? This is between the user and the website, the sysadmin has nothing to do with it. Is "contact your system administrator" just tech support equivalent of "go ask your parents"?
My conjecture is that people grew up seeing "contact your system administrator" on error messages, and just started copying it into stuff they created as a way of dealing with unforeseen issues.
Go ask your IT mom
