My mom just asked me about this: "Have you seen that Google backout and that other one, the wiwi-kiwi-kikipedia?"

My mom can't even open a program on Windows, so I think the awareness part has been succesful.

I wish my mom couldn't open a Windows program. Nothing more annoying than a mom that is constantly on Facebook. God love her, she is obsessed.

My mother emailed me a rage comic today, I was surprised to say the least.

You must be so proud. She is now "with it."

No I nearly threw up onto my laptop, rage comics are terrible! It's a nice change from weird stuff about how Muslims are taking over and comic sans anyway.

She sends you emails about how muslims are taking over in comic sans? That's kind of amazing. It would be like Paul Revere writing that the british were coming in crayon. Nothing says, "this is serious" like comic sans. nothing.

If only she could find it written in Comic Sans! Cool that she's reading it though.
