lol. s/o "Since you know so much..."

I don't even work in IT (or know much about computers), but because I'm under 45 years old, I always get asked for computer help. This is funny, because its true.

Re: lol. s/o "Since you know so much..."

  • I get asked for computer help a lot from my mom. My response is always for her to just suck it up and buy a mac.
  • I hate when my computer illiterate friend would ask for my help (for simple stuff such as attaching a photo to an email). She wouldn't even try. I just wanted to scream "think about it! look around! figure it out! Yea, no patience.
  • I hate how my mom reads every word of everything she clicks on. She will download things and read everything to see what she should click. I finally told her "click 'ok' or 'next', it doesnt matter what it says"... probably not the best advice ever :)

  • It captured Mr. Banana's likeness so well!
  • My family splits all the wacky computer requests between me & my dad.  However, it appears I'm flying solo on that one with FI's family.
