It’s Pr0ning LOLcats And Blogs
(I am teaching a guy in his sixties or so how to use the Internet.)
Customer: “So… I can search for… anything?”
Me: “Anything.”
Customer: “And this will just find it for me?”
Me: “Yup.”
(We search for a baseball score, find it, and go back to Google. He clicks on the search bar again and “baseball scores” comes up.)
Customer: “Oh, it keeps a list?”
Me: “Yeah, so it’s easier to find the stuff you like next time.”
Customer: *disheartened* “Can I get rid of that? You know, like if I… you know… buy my wife a present or something and don’t want her to know about it?”
Me: “Yeah, just click on ‘Reset Safari,’ and it will delete any evidence of what you searched.”
(The guy is clearly dumbfounded at the world of opportunities now available to him.)
Customer: “You just saved my marriage.”
(Enjoy your p*rn, sir.)
