Notes:

Sorry, early today!

Also: I'm not going to officially warn for tongue-in-cheek "triggers" just to provide anyone with a fandom-specific in-joke when there are none in the secret.

it's really sad. on speedtest.net or wherever, there's a banner ad that looks very much like part of the site that goes "USE THIS APP TO DELETE ALL THE BAD USELESS FILES FROM YOUR PC FIRST!!!!!1!!". of course he clicks that.

I mean, most of ~us (young people!) can easily distinguish a banner ad from a legit part of a website OR know how to hide ads completely... the only time I have trouble with that is when I want to download stuff and there's 300 "download" buttons and the site itself has no overall distinguishable theme. then I hover and look at the URLs, so... lksdfjldsfadsjfl

I think I have to give him some sort of The Talk soon. "father, there are bad people websites on the internet... and very often they pretend to be something that they are not..."

Dear GOD, the AOL browser? WHY?

Get him Firefox and Chrome with adblock or something. Serious, good god D:

200 years ago we used AOL internet because it was literally the ~only place that offered internets where we lived. We only switched over like five years ago... So I guess he got used to it?

I installed Opera and it's set as the default browser, but he still believes it's necessary to use AOL to get connected to the internet............

It can be worse. Think dial-up internet and making sure no one else is on the phone first XD
