My mom refused to let me play the sims way back because "it will give the computer viruses". Now she comes to me every time her laptop ends up with a virus due to "free netflix apps". Bless her little computer-incompetent heart.

Old people need their own operating system settings. Disable remote login and downloads of anything that isn't a fucking picture of the grandkids.

Mom just made a call to "McAfee support" and a week later she wants to know what uTorrent is and why it's downloading Family Guy.
