Adults Are SOOOOOOOOO Stupid

Do your parents not understand technology? None of them do, they’re all morons! People that dumb shouldn’t be allowed to breed. It’s tragic, really.

If you’ve got an example of your Parents Just Don’t Understanding, embarrass them and send it to parentsjustdontunderstand (at) gmail.com.

My mom’s CD drive was stuck closed. I restarted the computer, and the drive light came on.
Mom: “Oh look, it’s working!… now it’s not… now it is… now it’s not… now it is… now it’s not… why isn’t it working?”
Me: “Mom… the light is blinking.”

My mom tried watching a DVD, but got stuck on the menu. I asked her what she was doing, and she said “I think there is a skip in this disk because it just keeps playing the same scene over and over”.

My mom walked in on me looking at porn one time and all she could say was, “Trey! Did you download that? Delete it! It’s illegal you know.”

My dad got a cell phone a few months ago, but he never turns it on. He thinks that you get charged for every minute the phone is on.
