[QUOTE=jimhowl33t;26505755]I'm starting to doubt about Mandrith's reliability, though. A large part of my brain is starting to scream "Come on! He can't be THIS fucking stupid! His son seems balanced and smart, and since he can't have inherited these traits from the father, the mother must not be a complete fucktard. A rational woman would have pretty much divorced."[/QUOTE]
I'm not lying about this. My dad really is a fucking stupid asshole who acts like this all the time. My mother on the other hand is not an asshole, is nice, and is very smart, and because of her I did not turn out like my father.
Mandrith, I wish you would just move out of that shithole. He doesn't deserve your genius. Tell him he's a jean-ass. (Get the reference and you win a winner.)
Just had a brilliant idea:
Put DOSbox on the Mac, switch it to full screen, and make it look like a blank screen with just the words "Fuck you dad", and disable the wireless keyboard and mouse, and use an iPod app to turn it into a wireless keyboard, hide in my closet, and type messages to scare the shit out of him.

Dunno how he would react, I'm sure he'd murder you for that.
Or think it's a virus and be scared shitless knowing they can get viruses.
Replace a shortcut with sudo rm /rf or whatever that command is.
I know you guys are all having fun with Mandrith's stories, but I just can't help but beleive they are all just made up. Maybe they have partial truth, but not as extreme as what he makes it out to be.
His dad probably makes a decent living, wanted an iPad came in and was excited that he had it and said he had the greatest tech ever (without being serious). You don't really know how nay of this is actually happening and I just feel like these stories are greatly fabricated to pull reactions from everyone in this thread.

Woo, big deal, someone might be lying on the Internet.
Nobody cares
Even if this is fake, it's still entertaining.
I believe you, Mandrith.

Then why did a smart, nice woman marry such an apocalyptic douchebag, let alone procreate with him?
Should I feel sorry for the whole family's fate?

Perhaps personal computers didn't exist in his time?

Not a big deal at all, maybe take it down a peg?
I don't care if it is fiction or non-fiction, but people are taking it a little to the extreme. Having pages of "Ah we must fight your dad over skype with sticks and spears" is a bit excessive.

Perhaps Mandrith's Mom's Dad hit Mandrith's Dad with a car, causing Mandrith's Mom to feel sorry for him and take him to the Enchantment Under The Sea dance.

If someone is a dumb asshole, the behavior is extended to pretty much everything, not just computers...

From what Mand describes him, his dad is more like Biff than George McFly.
Implications are... unpleasNO, WAIT, THIS PICTURE IS FUCKING HORRIBLE OH GOD

Good grief, I go to sleep and Mandrith's dad ignites a shitstorm. Mandrith, please, kill your father. He puts a terrible name on all Mac users. For the good of the planet, Apple, yourself, your mother, the poor Apple Store technicians who have to deal with him, for the air he wastes on his sorry lungs, JUST KILL HIM ALREADY!

I'm more amazed about that Darwin's law haven't removed him from the gene pool before he even knew where babies come from.
