    Do your parents not understandtechnology? Do they ask you stupid questions? Do they send you absurdtext messages? Do they even know what a text message is?

    If you've got an example of your Parents Just Don't Understanding, send it to parentsjustdontunderstand (at) gmail.com. And, hey, if we publish it, send your parents a link. They probably won't understand what it is.
    Because they're stupid.

    For the past two years, every time I've called my mom's cell phone it has rung all the way to voicemail. The other day I was in the same room as her when her phone rang and started playing some standard tune. I watched as she just looked at the phone and ignored the call. When I asked her if she was going to answer it she replied "Yes, but don't you have to wait until the song's over?"

    I went to meet my grandfather for father's day and when I went to shake
    his hand, he closed his fist and tried for a fist bump/pound while saying, "Less germs!"

    My parents recently heard about Vonage, and were thinking of changing the phone service for our house, but they wanted to ask our neighbors who used that service if it was good first. The next time my dad saw them, he said, "I heard you and your wife were using bondage. Do you like it?"
    From Christine, VCU

    I aced a physics exam, and when I told my parents my mom responded, "Thats great! You should put that up on youtube." I'm still a little confused, but I think she believes that youtube is like a giant internet refrigerator.
