Earlier today, my dad was trying to reset his LinkedIn password because he couldn't remember it, so he asked me to come over because it wouldn't let him reset his password and was telling him to enter his email again. Turns out the link expired.

 

Also, right now I'm helping him set up his Skycaddie on my mom's laptop, step-by-step.

Listening to radio, heard this in an ad: "hotels.com is the best .com for booking hotels, and the worst .com for anything else"

It's called a website, not a .com

It's like when people say times instead of multiply. "and then you times three by five and get fifteen". It's MULTIPLY, you idiots.

There are situations where times sounds better. "2 times 4 equals 8" instead of "2 multiplied by 4 equals 8"

two times two equals four.

Yes.

When you times two by two, you get four.

Nope, multiply.

My mom regularly has 2 or 3 Firefox windows open, but only uses one.

My mom just got her Galaxy S5 a couple weeks ago and it's her first ever smartphone.

One time she comes up to me saying: "I think there's something wrong with my phone, I'm stuck on this page and don't have my homescreen anymore."

Turned out she simply was in the app drawer....

My mom used a Galaxy S5 in a Verizon store once to Google something. Later she had to turn around and Google something else but the S5 was being used so she turns around to the iPhone 6 and starts tapping at the bottom like it has capacative buttons

[BurgerBum]

My mom regularly has 2 or 3 Firefox windows open, but only uses one.

i actually do this alot, though for good reason. 

 

its just a hell of a lot easier to copy a link from chrome that i wanna save for later and paste them all into a bunch of firefox tabs and close out chrome. go do what i wanted to do. (usually geamz)

 

firefox is less demanding, so, more rams 4 mah geamz.

took my mom months before she relized she could double tap the home button as a ''task manager'' of sorts. x'D 

i mean...

its not like i told her every time she just went to the home screen.... >_>

There is this person at the Verizion store when I was getting my S5. He directed me to cases, and I am like why? they make my phone look like shit. He is like its not waterproof. He said he put his S5 in the tub, and pulled it out and it got rekt. Its waterproof for real world settings, not for testing limits of IP certifications. You look ONLINE for limits, NOT throwing 600 dollars down the toilet.
