      A while back I was teaching a class to older people, essentially a 'basics of IT' class.

      Anyway I used to sometimes ask them to bring in their own devices, esp. If they had a problem that I might be able to help with cos while I am not an expert I can at least solve most problems a boomer might have with their computer.

      This guy brings in his laptop and gets me to have a look at it. It's kinda grubby but yeah didn't make much of it. He hadn't turned it off, he would just for some reason put it in sleep mode. So I press the power button and it's just internet explorer open on a hardcore porn site. He'd figured out browser tabs too though not how to close them because there must have been about 8 more tabs, each clearly porn.

      I pretended not to notice but he definately realised I had seen it all. Really fucking embarrasing and I am amazed he came back to the class tbh

                oh...

                Well since she's from Europe that's unlikely, but she has gone from esoteric hippie who wishes the best for everyone to someone with maybe slightly racist takes, I am still evaluating if she actually eats up the racism and antisemitism as well, but I guess with more exposure to it she will eventually. She has gone completely nuts already.

    My grandfather who I met for the first time last year got a facebook to better communicate and it feels like outsider art watching him use it. Shame he's a Chud.

    Boomers were never exposed to links to goatse and so they don't have a healthy immune system for the internet.

      That's why I send my mom a daily digest of chapo.chat content. Keeping her healthy.

    There was a Chapo.chat tab I had opened one time with "Cum-Guzzling" in the title for whatever meme reason (I think it was something about Pence, can't find it again). I opened my browser to show my co-worker something last week and from the way he politely averted his head, he totally saw "Cum-Guzzling" in the open tabs and thought I had hardcore porn open casually on my phone. My mistake really, because I was kind of embarrassed.

    For what it's worth I don't really look at porn because I think it's boring, so I felt double punished for this happening to me.
