Me: What browser are you using?
Mom: Google.
Me: Google is not a browser. Are you using Internet Explorer?
Mom: Yes, I’m using the internet.
Me: *sigh*

    my mom's not a fob and she'd say the same thing... i think this one is more about the generational gap. they didn't grow up with Internet.

    My dad, my friend and I were having the same conversation:

    Dad: I need to learn how to delete browsing history...but I don't want to delete all of it.
    My friend: Sure, I can help you with that. What browser are you using?
    Dad: Msn.com
    Me: Dad...that's not a browser that's a website.
    My friend: I think you're using Internet Explorer.

    chrome is the firefox UI language!
  • For some reason, I imagine this conversation in a heavy Filipino accent. I think it would be even more hilarious that way.

    Google chrome is a browser, though!
