    A few weeks ago, my parents complained that the laptop kept going to a “screensaver” while they were trying to work on it.

    So I changed the screensaver setting from like 3 minutes to 15 minutes… but it kept happening. I knew something was up when they said “well it wouldn’t be so bad if I didn’t have to reopen the Internet every time.”

    Guys… it was a touchscreen laptop. They were grabbing it by the corner and closing out the window. 😆 And one of these people showed me how to make a website in HTML when I was younger…

    Are we all doomed to be daft in our old age?
