Figure it out!
I hate how my parents have decided to embrace computers and want myspace and facebook profiles and all that shit. i hate how they phone me for help on the simplest shit like uploading photos. FIGURE IT OUT! It isn't important and I don't have the time or patience for it. Who do you think taught me how to use a computer? Absolutely no one.

if I told you how many times I had to re-tell my mother how to COPY and PASTE you would seriously die. my brother too, after I finally started getting really pissed at being asked the same thing AGAIN she started asking him.
At one point I was answering my phone, “Keta’s Non Stop 24-Hour Tech Support Line”. She got the idea.

The lady I work with, who has been in my business longer than I have been alive, still copy/pastes using the edit->copy and/or paste menu in the two programs we use most often. She is unaware that this trick can be done by keyboard shortcut or right clicking. Also, though I have told her many times, she seems to think this modern wonder can only be done in the aforementioned two programs.
Longer. Than. I. Have. Been. Alive.
And she makes more than me.
I can somewhat forgive older people that did not have access to an affordable computer until the nineties….up until they buy a computer and think I will help them do everything with it, only to later tell me that I do not know what I am talking about.
