Do your parents not understand technology? Do they ask you stupid questions? Do they send you absurd text messages? Do they use words like “MyFace,” “SpaceBook,” or “The World Wide Web?” If you’ve got an example of your Parents Just Don’t Understanding, submit it here! And thank God we’ll never be as dumb as they are! My boyfriend’s mother isn’t the brightest when it comes to cell phone use. Once my boyfriend called her (she actually had her phone on!) when she and her husband were at a restaurant. After the call was over she told her husband that it sure was smart of him to know to call her at the restaurant. LeeAnna Dalrymple I posted a link on my mother’s wall that I thought she’d be interested in. She replied to the email notification from Facebook with the same link I posted on her wall in the body of the email. Charlie Q My mom tried to convince me today that Ryan Seacrest’s name is actually “Rhine” Seacrest. She claims that she saw someone write it that way on the internet, so it must be true. Bob Johnson My aunt deliberately spelled her name wrong in her e-mail-address, so that “hackers and criminals can’t find her account.” some bloke My Dad sends error reports to Microsoft.

Parents Just Don’t Understand: 8/4
Do your parents not understand technology? Do they ask you stupid questions? Do they send you absurd text messages? Do they use words like “MyFace,”"SpaceBook,”or “The World Wide Web?” If you’ve got an example of your Parents Just Don’t Understanding, submit it here! And thank God we’ll never be as dumb as they are! My dad showed me his iMac remote and asked me how many songs it held. Lana Greyson My dad thinks if he misses a call that means he has to automatically check his voicemail. As in, he calls it as soon as his ringer stops going off, probably before the person who called him has even had the time to listen to his voicemail recording. Then he gets mad and thinks that person is rude for not leaving a message. Kaci W My mom keeps sending me nudges over MSN and telling me she’s busy and can’t talk right now.
