This is how superstitions start.

Okay Grandma, if that’s what it takes for you to accept germ theory, I’m in.

How else are you going to reason with animals?

Yup, superstitions like “blowing on the NES cartridge to remove dust will make it work.”

In some cases this could introduce enough moisture to get a connection.

And could also corrode the cartridge. I knew a guy whose son absolutely ruined a Pokémon 3DS cartridge that way.

Just tell them to unplug and plug back in without the added step about blowing on it. I tell people to do that all the time when a plugged device doesn’t work. Fixes things all the time.
