I wish FB would disappear. Or banned from Malaysia.
I think this is an overdue rant, that I still constantly rant about. I don't even know how to start this. SRSLY.
Alright so my dad starts using Facebook (quite sometime ago, months? Maybe almost a year I forgot) ... Just cause everyone has one and of course he would want one. Though, what's worse is that he's pretty obsessed with it. I have to say it's not funny if your dad is turning 61, and he's on FB everyday and keeps telling you crap about FB that you don't even know yourself. It's not "IN" either!
First of all things, he used to only know how to turn on the comp. Yes, that's it. He didn't even know how to turn it off. He doesn't know how to register for an email address, so of course I had to do it for him. And his account? yeah I did it for him too.
Other than that, dad doesn't even know how to open the browser at first. I used Mozilla cause I haven't downloaded Google Chrome on the other PC. He asked me to set FB to his homepage... But phrases it something like "set it so everytime I open this thing, FB will appear". So after a couple days, I downloaded Chrome and told him to use it. He's like "I don't know how to use it. How do you open FB?" I was like "=________=;;" Speechless! And okay after typing in the address... he doesn't know how to login.... GOD SAVE ME.
Then a month ago his comp died on him, my RAM died on my desktop. (we have 2 desktops, one macbook pro and 2 other laptops lol) and he sent it to a friend's brother's shop to fix it... Honestly I don't like going to that shop to fix stuff cause there's always problems. But my dad just said to me, and practically shouted "then where do you think I should take it to?" I said "there's the other guy" and he's like "he's almost never there" =.= I just think my dad doesn't wanna bring it there. So.whatever. just bring it to the friend's brother. Don't mind me. Replacing a RAM on my desktop was just fine so it wouldn't have any problems.
As of why my dad's desktop died. HA I LAUGHED. I LAAAUUUGHED. The technician checked and said, everything in the system is too corrupted to the point the comp can't be turned on. Because before that I keep telling my dad not to open all the emails and shit like that. And he would argue like "I only open emails from people I know" and I had the debate where people he knows could be hacked or infected with viruses and stuff blah blah blah all those stuff. I don't remember who said the last word.
But after being told by the technician, I could finally say "Told you."
So after fixing and reformatting the comp, he got it back and in the car he keeps telling me and asking me to set up FB for him again. Wth? He's been using it for about a year and he doesn't even know how to open a friggin webpage? I told him to use the browser to open the webpage and he's still asking me stupid questions.
And after his happy minutes on FB, the comp auto-restarted... NON STOP. I don't even know what's happening lol. So in the end I just told him to use my desktop. We're basically using the same OS. Windows XP on the desktops (don't ask my why not Win7). and before even looking he said "I don't know how to use your desktop." HOW IS THE SAME OS DIFFERENT?"
Now I'm just confusing myself.
Anyways I just modified and changed the looks and themes around, it's still the same thing. So of course, first thing he does... FB. FB FB FB!!! You can see signs of me going mad.
So of course I wouldn't have his login info (I wouldn't remember) and it was at the front page of the site right? The bottom part is for registering and the top is for logging in. He was asking... "Why do I have to give my name and birthday all those stuff again?" =.= KILL ME PLEASE. I seriously try hard to keep my cool. SERIOUSLY. So I said that's for registering, the logging in is from the top of the page. So he asked "How do I log in?" HOW? HOW THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN LOGGING IN DAMN IT. I just said "click on login" ... he took it literally! He said "just click on the button?" So I had to say, put in your email address and pw. He still had to ask "the xxxxxxx@live blahblah?" HOW SHOULD I KNOW DAD IT'S YOUR EMAIL OMG. Can't expect me to remember all your login shit for you now right?
and finally he logs in.
The reason why I'm partly so pissed is that he keeps showing off that he's knowledgable about these tech stuff and can even teach other people! HA what a joke. My mom was trying to figure out how to send a contact to her other phone through bluetooth yesterday and my dad was like "I'll do it for you" and he actually doesn't really know how to do it. My mom just said "you don't even know how to do it" and he got angry. lol =.=;
I think I'm gonna die when he gets the Blackberry. I wish we didn't have to give him one. But hey he wants iPod Shuffle we give. He wants iPod Touch WE GIVE. HE WANTS BB WE GIVE.
Though he never really used the iPods so Shuffle is better off with mom and I'll take back the Touch.
I salute you who finished reading this pointlessly long rant.
PS. I wouldn't mind FB disappearing off the face of Earth, rather... I would like it that way so people can get out to get to know REAL people.
PPS. I'm a sucker for Twitter HA.
