Me: Hey mom!

Mom: Typing….

Me: What’s up? How’s Dad? Is he feeling better now?

Mom: Typing…

Me: Dave and I will be coming home tonight for dinner. Do you want me to pick up something on our way?

Mom: Typing…

Me: Are the Johnsons coming too?

Mom: Hi!

If you consider texting as our generation’s most noteworthy gift to human literary feat, our moms and dads seem to be the rebels who are working their fingers off to destroy the art form! And like all rebels they are wreaking havoc to say the tiniest!

Our parents look at technology the way cavemen viewed fire when they discovered it! They are more than likely to burn things down! Let’s have a look at the ‘boulevard of ‘boo-boo’ texts by the parents!

1. ‘Hashing’ the hell outta you!

Isn’t it like email? Can’t you check it from some other device? You’ve got to be kidding me!

6. Chinese, tonight?

7. Feel me? Anyone?

9. When MOM can’t find something that’s when you have really lost it… or wait…

As if her life wasn’t already tough! Ah, well c’mon Mom was used to a pager!

Yea and when we roll our eyes because they just asked us to help them with the technology mumbo-jumbo, they retort “I helped you clean your bum when you couldn’t wipe you’re a** after a dump…”

*Suicidal already*

Dear Tech-troubled moms and dads,

You are experts when it comes to the art of patience, time management, bringing up menaces like us, but … um… when it comes to technology, well, enough said already. Looks like an expertise exchange program is on the cards.
