My Idiot Dad

**Raple** · 03-03-2014

So, today my Dad asked me to fix up an old computer for his broad of a girlfriend that has been sitting in the garage for nearly three. fucking. months. Not only has it snowed nearly 10 feet total in the past 1-2 months, our all time lowest temperature was negative 27 degrees. In February. I expected it to be broken, or in the very least messed up so bad that parts would need to be replaced.

I didn't mind too much, so I took it and gave it a look through.

I open it up, and guess what? The inside is literally frozen so bad that the South Bridge was cracked open, the CPU fan was so brittle I was afraid to move it, and the RAM was literally immovable without doing horrific damage. It looked like some snow or water got inside somehow and froze.

I let it sit, and tried again in a couple hours when it "unthawed" a bit. Knowing the water would do some sort of damage, I take another look. Besides the parts not being as frozen, it wasn't much better. He literally screams at me saying I ruined his computer and that I need to buy him another one. I tell him as dumbly as I could, because he doesn't understand computers, that the chipset was destroyed because of the extreme cold and there was nothing I could do.

He continuously yelled at me until I called him a fucking idiot, then he stormed out the front door probably to a bar or something.

For fucks sake, why are people so dumb sometimes.

Not really a complete rage, but here is better than general.

He makes me laugh a lot because every time I make him look like a fool by pointing out contradictions in his stories, he scuffles off like nothing happened.

and don`t forget, the elder generations didn`t grow up having computers. It is really hard for them, dude, the fights i had with my mother trying to explain her some basic stuff... In the beginning she even didn`t get how the little arrow on the screen was connected to the mouse, lol. Every time she had an add opening she called me in utter panic hahahaha. But hey, she got along in the end and can now even update her facebook status via her smartphone. A bit of patience and understanding on both sides goes a long way
