I once had a user all me to “install the latest version of the internet on her computer”.
My first thought was “that’s gonna take a hot minute…”
She was referring to wanting the latest version of internet explorer, of course, but it didn’t stop my “take everything literally” brain from going on a humorous aside imagining downloading the entire internet to this users machine.
In the case of the browser, they are still only describing use, not brand name.
They don’t know what a browser is. That’s just “The Internet”.
Edit: I got whooshed.

I was making a joke about edging.
Edit: It was pretty subtle, to be honest. Not my finest masturbation-related humor.
