That has English subtitles since i first saw it; my German sorta got me through, but now it's far funnier. (And far more painful. Reminding me of the first time I got a modem, and plugged it in....and then what? Oh, dial the phone to the connect number, and....hold it up to the computer? Argh.)
No, my darling - but I was definitely one of those people who, back in the Dark Ages when computers first appeared in our land, had to be shown more than once how to turn the sweet little things on, and did in fact lose entire documents due to hitting the wrong button, more than once. And was filled with the pity & terror thereof. If I had been around in 1450, I would have turned the book upside down. And cried.
Ohh, dear. X3! I wonder if they had the Geek Squad in the 1450's. Only instead of driving little black-and-white beetles, they would have swung in on vines. Or painted horses black and white. (D
Oh man. I'd send this to my parents, but I don't know if they could figure out how to watch it without me coaching them through each step.
You know what's really scary? Knowing that 30 years from now I'm going to be on the phone-equivalent with my daughter as she coaches *me* through some technology or other -- and I have no idea what technology that will be.
