Default Xmas technology funnies

I figured I'd post this to see what funny responses will come from the likes of fathers and dvd players etc.

To get the ball rolling...

My dad got himself a DVD player some years back, after watching a film he sat quietly looking at the remote and eventually shouted "Wheres the f00king rewind on this thing!!!"

How about anyone else?

My dad's got my mum who's in her 50's a Wii for christmas so watch this space, should be interesting when I go round there tomorrow.
(not that there's anything wrong with people in their 50's using a Wii but my mother has never played a video game in her life)

that little plastic strip they put between batteries to stop them contacting before you want them to, that's always worth a laugh first time round

dads being dads the tool kit comes out no kidding i saw my dad this year surrounded by a dismantled torch, flashing tree ornament and kids toys and him muttering 'none of this foreign **** works'

i left him to it for half an hour before letting him in on the big secret

My 68 year old Mum playing Guitar Hero last Christmas was amusing to say the least
