My COMPLETELY computer illiterate father JUST sent me an e-mail that made me scream.

He joined--

wait for it


wait for it


MYSPACE.

And he said he saw my profile. :o


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

1. doh!

:hug:

but also... :rofl:

the horror!!! thank jeebus my Mom still can't find the power button on the computer! :rofl:

3. the email he sent me...

...was basically:

"I don't care what the hell you have on there, but just keep in mind cops and employers can look at it".

The funny thing is, I was planning on deleting all drug/sex/illegal activity references on facebook and myspace because I'm beginning to look for a job in Utah when I graduate-- having a squeaky clean appearance is critical.
I'm just a little freaked because he doesn't know I'm bi and I have that listed...:o

6. I remember how proud my mom was the first time she found the power

button.

It's like, "Mom, it's an iMac. It has only has one button that you'll need, it's on the front of the computer and it GLOWS!"

8. ....

9. And Hawaii doesn't have a drinking age because it's an island.

"It's a state. You have to be 21."

"Yeah, but it's an island."

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

10. So, do you get your brilliant mind from your dad's side?

:D

:loveya:

11. Yeah, my dad was pretty smart.

His side of the family tends to be smart, artistic and with a higher than average incidence of criminal activity. Her side tends to be dumb, boring, and politically conservative (so I don't think the 1st two things are an accident).

I also look and act like my dad. Honestly, if she didn't give birth to me, I wouldn't think I was related at all.

12. i adore you....

and you are a patient woman....that would drive me bonkers :crazy:

:hug:

2. My daughter has banned me from myspace

Not that I had any desire to sign up.

[ScreamingMeemie]

4. Hahahahaha....

7. My mom still hasn't figured out the email thing.

She got the computer for Christmas & has allegedly taken classes on this stuff. This is an actual conversation I had...

Mom: You need to come fix my email. It broke.
Me: What do you mean 'it broke?' You can't break gmail.
Mom: I don't know what I did but it's broken. I can't get to it.
Me: When did it break?
Mom: Three weeks ago.
Me: Uh...okay, that's weird. Let me see...
(Turn on her iBook and click on Mail in the dock. Mail opens & three weeks of emails come in)
Mom: Wow! You fixed it! What did you do?
Me: Uh...I opened up Mail. You know you can get it by going gmail online, right?
Mom: I don't know how to work the internet. I can't get my email online. How did you open up Mail?
Me: I clicked on it.
Mom: Oh wow. I bet you think I'm really stupid, huh?
Me: Actually...er...here, let me just set this up so the program starts up and gets your mail when you turn the computer on.
Mom: Thank you. Could you write an email for me? I get them, but I don't know how to reply.

:banghead:
