[QUOTE=Nyaos;17764910]I can't block him because during family gatherings he always asks me about the emails he sends me :([/QUOTE] Block him, then 1 week before gatherings, skim over everything he sent you. If it's a surprise gathering, quickly check your email before you go, and again, skim over it Now rate me wrenches.
I dunno man Bill Cosby could be a pretty sweet president.

My grandpa never upgrades his hardware. It's a Pentium II with 300 MB of ram, and it's running windows XP with like a million useless photo and email programs from 1997 that auto-runs when you boot the machine eating up what little ram there is. Also, no virus scanners and 52K dialup.
At least your grandad's alive.

[quote](1). Any use of the phrase: 'Press 1 for English' is immediately banned. English is the official language; speak it or wait outside of our borders until you can.[/quote] I like how whoever wrote that email doesn't know that the US doesn't have an official language at all. [quote=Wikipedia]The United States does not have an official language; however, the majority of the population speaks English as a native language (some 82%).[/quote] [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_the_United_States[/url]

[QUOTE=Nyaos;17764758]This is the kind of stuff he sends me every day. Of course it comes with huge bright letters and terrible comic-sans. Everything he sends me is slightly racist. Also noteworthy, he bought a $3,000 Dell XPS because the guy at Best Buy told him it'd be the fastest. Oh Grandpa...[/QUOTE] If this would actually happen id get my dad to come with me and personally shoot your grandfather. Gah hes retired and already has a fuckload on his hands. >=(

[QUOTE=Skyhawk;17766866]I think it was implying that English would be made the official language.[/QUOTE] I doubt it. It sounded like some racist, uneducated redneck wrote it. A lot of Americans don't know that the US doesn't have an official language.
My mom does that too
[QUOTE=5tolognadriS;17764945]Breaking my automerge boy I blocked my own girlfriend[/QUOTE] Your probably single and lonely.
[QUOTE=snuwoods;17764947]You know, I found a lot of that to be pretty sensible.[/QUOTE] Isolationism will kill us, 100% tax will cut us off and turn us into an island that nobody buys from, shooting people on sight as soon as they come near the border (and putting old people in charge of that) is stupid for obvious reasons, etc. These policies would turn us into a fascist third world state overnight.
As a testament I know that Cosby never said any of that, it's just funny how he send me this stuff. Let me dig up more of it. [quote] The other day, I needed to go to the emergency room. Not wanting to sit there for 4 hours, I put on my old Army fatigues and stuck a patch onto the front of my shirt that I had downloaded off the Internet. When I went into the E. R., I noticed that 3/4 of the people got up and left. I guess they decided that they weren't that sick after all. Cut at least 3 hours off my waiting time. Here's the patch. Feel free to use it the next time you're in need of quicker emergency service.

[/quote] Also about the computer, he refuses to run it in anything besides 800 x 600 on the 24" LCD because anything else is too small.
My dad has a Ph.d in Computer Science, yet it takes him a fucking year to do change the screensaver, or send an email.
my gramma can do internet all by herself, she knows how to use photoshop/portable hard drives digital cameras, email all that shes even thinking about getting a kindle

My grandmother sends me interesting sites that are worth looking at it with decent commentary
Im tempted to try that border patrol thing. I live in Texas, so 90 percent of the dmv line would disappear.
I hate family members that think its funny to send you a email with lolcats pictures >:|
Hmm. No Imports, no exports... Forced pledge and national anthem... Extreme border control... Is your grandfather Kim-Jong-Il?
Your grandpa sounds fairly cool, at least he knows how to email and such, plus his emails are fairly funny. Send him a funny joke back or something.
or porn
