Every year.
Conversation with my mother on Thanksgiving:
“What the hell is with these toolbars again?”
“I didn’t put them there!”
“Mom, toolbars like this do not come with the browser. You have to click something. You have to MAKE THEM APPEAR.”
“I SAID I DIDN’T DO IT. THEY WERE JUST THERE.”
“No. No, they were not JUST THERE. YOU. MADE. THEM. HAPPEN.”
“I DIDN’T DO ANYTHING! I DON’T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.”
“That’s the problem. You didn’t watch what you were clicking or read what you were agreeing to.”
“It’s this computer. This computer sucks.”
“Yes, mom. It’s the computer. Not you. Not you at all. In fact, it’s not even the computer. IT IS FUCKING MAGIC.”
“Oh, whatever.”I disabled about five toolbars (though she insisted I leave the Pogo toolbar there). This isn’t even a holiday thing. If I go over there again today, there will be two more toolbars there, at least.
Todd has pretty much given up on helping my mother with her computer issues. I’m about to.
Go for it, mom. Set the world’s record for magical toolbars.
