Hilarious Posts About Moms Having a Hard Time With All These Fancy Gadgets

It’s easy to feel like you’re being left behind with all the insane technology we have in our pockets and in our home these days.

And it’s especially hard for older folks to keep up with all these phones, computers, TVs, and every other technological advancement you can think of.

That’s why these posts about moms having a hard time with their gadgets are so funny because they are the undisputed TRUTH.

Let’s take a look. And let’s have a laugh!

1. This is all very confusing…

Get a grip, Mom!

So my mom got a new phone…. from oldpeoplefacebook

2. Hahahaha. Wow.

Think she was embarrassed at all?

3. She’s just trying to fit in.

I’m also against dabbing, FYI.

8. That’s what it is!

It’s a whole new world for her.

13. This is so hilarious.

Those really made me laugh because I’m on the phone at least once a week with my parents trying to walk them through how to do something with their phone, their computer, or their TV.

I guess a lot of us are dealing with it!

But it sure is funny!

How about you? Do you have to give your parents or other people a helping hand when it comes to fancy, new technology?

People Who Aren’t Following the Rules During This Current Situation

This current situation we’re in really sucks.

That’s why we all need to do our part and stay home whenever possible and minimize contact with other people as much as we can.

Buuuuut, some people aren’t getting the message on how to follow the rules and regulations.

I’m sure you’ve seen it where you live.

Here are some photos of the weird, funny, and frankly DUMB way that some people are acting right now.

1. The bee keeper helmet doesn’t cut it here.

And I’m not really sure how you think it would…

She’s wearing a mesh bee keeper type helmet. I’m not sure she gets the point. from facepalm

2. Doing a great job!

Hands all over the face.

It was painful watching this happen from facepalm

3. COVER YOUR NOSE.

For your sake and the sake of everyone else.

4. Not what that means…

Hate to break it to you…

I don’t think she knows what “quarantining” means… from facepalm

5. You must sanitize the money!

Why are people doing this? Very strange…

Someone brought these bills to the bank they tried to sanitize in a microwave from facepalm

6. And you listened!

Kind of…

Wife said to wear a mask in public areas? from funny

7. Very close, sir.

But you need to work on your technique.

To use a mask from therewasanattempt

8. Looks great on you!

And your scalp won’t get sick.

N95s filtering improves if you wear it as a headband from facepalm

9. I guess no one really knows what that word actually means.

And here’s yet another example.

I don’t think that’s how it works. from facepalm

10. It can’t go side-to-side.

It’s just not that advanced.

Good to know Coronavirus only travels forward and backwards from facepalm

11. Can that kid breathe?!?!

Doesn’t seem like a good idea.

Seen today in the Atlanta airport – babies in comforter bags! from facepalm

12. And then there are these folks…

USA! USA! USA! USA!

Come on, everyone!

Do your part so we can all get back to going out and seeing our friends and family members.

The longer people keep acting like dummies, the longer we have to stay in lockdown.

Okay, now we want to hear from you.

Have you seen any people where you live acting in a dumb and reckless manner?

If so, tell us about it in the comments, please!

A Man Told His Wife They’re Both Pregnant Since He Works So Much

Trying to figure out an equal division of labor at home is hard. Like, really hard. It’s especially hard when one partner is pregnant, nursing or otherwise rearing small children. Children are exhausting, period, no matter what age they’re at.

But on the flip side, if the other partner is putting in long hours to help pay for said children, that can really start to become a grind, too. Call it an impasse — no one is super happy.

One man took to Reddit to ask if he’s an asshole for telling his wife they’re essentially both pregnant because he has to work such long hours.

You can read the full tale below:

AITA for telling my wife that we’re BOTH pregnant? from AmItheAsshole

Reddit users had A LOT to say to this guy. And most of it wasn’t very nice. If he was hoping Reddit would provide a little sympathy, he was sadly mistaken.

One commenter even went so far as to say that this guy is heading toward a divorce:

Another user pointed out that if he wants to play video games, he needs to sacrifice some of his own time to do that:

Photo Credit: Reddit

Other users wondered if he was being overdramatic even in how he wrote the post:

Photo Credit: Reddit

Plus, they astutely noted that being in a marriage isn’t about tit for tat all the time:

Photo Credit: Reddit

And that he’s not doing anywhere near the amount of work his wife is doing anyway:

Photo Credit: Reddit

And he gets to play his video games. Did he ever stop to think about when his wife gets downtime?

Photo Credit: Reddit

Bottom line, the dude’s a big ol’ asshole:

Photo Credit: Reddit

This one seems pretty clearcut but of course, there are always shades of grey. You’ll notice that the original poster edited his post to say that his wife actually found this thread and wants to get couples counseling.

We hope he agrees to go and that he takes it seriously.

What’s your take? Is this guy overreacting? Should his wife be more understanding? Something else in the middle?

Let us know in the comments!

People Who Ordered Things off the Wish App and Didn’t Get What They Expected

Have you used the Wish app before? You can find really cheap versions of just about anything you’re looking for, which is pretty cool.

The problem, though, is that the site is kind of know for selling items that look NOTHING like they do in the photos.

Call it false advertising if you want to, I prefer to call it HILARIOUS. Because these pics of products that people received definitely were not what they were expecting.

Let’s take a look.

1. Doesn’t really look that sexy, does it?

It’s kind of scary looking, actually.

Another great buy from Wish.com… from ExpectationVsReality

2. Pretty close…

Actually, not close at all…

Ordered some Christmas cookie cutters off of Wish… from ExpectationVsReality

3. I love this so much.

The guy doesn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Seller pictures vs reviewer pictures on Wish from ExpectationVsReality

4. They didn’t use spell check before they made these shoes.

That’s really bad…

5. Michael Myers is supposed to be scary!

Looks like a clown.

Never buying from Wish.com again. from funny

6. Not even close, bud!

Let’s hope you live somewhere VERY cold.

This winter hat I ordered on Wish (VS) the one I received. from CrappyDesign

7. Not quite as advertised.

I guess you’ll have to put it in the shower.

8. Hahahaha. So good.

Not sure what you’re supposed to do with this.

Do not order your toilet paper from the wish app from funny

9. This is so weird.

THAT’S what you sent as a replacement????

What I ordered vs what I got from funny

10. You took a gamble…

And you LOST.

I knew I was taking a gamble ordering from Wish…. but still, I couldnt stop laughing when my blanket finally arrived! from ExpectationVsReality

11. Not the bad-ass mouse you ordered.

Just a sad, typical mouse…

Yep. Definitely the advertised product. from ExpectationVsReality

12. Are you going to cook for The Smurfs?

This one is really weird.

Always check the dimensions when ordering online from ExpectationVsReality

I guess you get what you pay for, right?

Have you ever had any experiences like this with Wish or any other online shopping places?

Please tell us about it in the comments.

And share some photos if you have them!

These Kids All Wrote Hilariously Dramatic Breakup Letters

As the saying goes, breaking up is hard to do.

Especially when you’re young and you have to do it by letter!

I remember these days well. Middle school and high school were full of intrigue and drama people breaking up with each other via notes in between classes.

It was all very exciting…when it wasn’t happening to you.

Let’s take a trip down memory lane and look at these breakup letters that are pretty entertaining.

1. I think “dibors” means “divorce” but I’m not sure…

A lot going on in this note.

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

2. This is epic.

Just making yourself look bad.

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

3. Some tough stuff here.

And get some breath mints.

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

4. It’s over, Sarah.

Sam swept Alex off his feet.

5. Poor Josh…

Taken all your stuff? From his locker, you think?

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

6. Fried chicken is very important.

And it might’ve been the downfall of this couple.

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

7. This could get very ugly.

But I think it might work out. Fingers crossed!

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

8. You did it on your anniversary?!?!

No mercy!

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

9. Let’s do a text one for the kids today.

I’m so glad we didn’t have cell phones when I grew up.

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

10. I remember having a “girlfriend” but never actually talking to them.

And running the other way if you saw them in the hallway.

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

11. This might be a future criminal.

That’s kind of disturbing.

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

12. She knew that question was coming at.

NOT interested in any of your friends.

Photo Credit: Cheezburger

That brought back a lot of old memories!

Not all of them good, by the way…

Did you ever break up with someone in this fashion?

Or maybe a boyfriend or a girlfriend ended it with you this way?

Dad Takes His Kids Back in Time by Building a Giant Dinosaur Jungle Gym

A lot of dads try DIY projects at home for their kids. But Matthew Cosman pretty much locked up the “Dad of the Year” award for 2020 by taking his jungle gym project to gigantic proportions.

While most kids would be satisfied with the run-of-the-mill swing set, Cosman’s kids got much more than that. In fact, the dedicated dad constructed a massive 14-meter dinosaur jungle gym that looks like museum-worthy.

Photo Credit: thecauseman

“I really did this and shared it for fun. I fabricate for a living because it’s my passion—I make fun things for me because no one will pay me to build these crazy things. I do have a history in aerospace engineering, so that played a big role here,” explained the dinosaur-inspired dad.

So how did this awesome dad accomplish this impressive build?

The project included a variety of materials, including structural steel and wood, foam, chicken wire, paint and concrete…lots of concrete. The masterpiece turned out 48 feet long, which seems pretty lifelike.

Photo Credit: thecauseman

For science enthusiasts, the body of the massive dinosaur appears to be an Apatosaurus, which lived in the late Jurassic period. Of course, the 14.3-meter long creation has tons of fun features to keep Cosman’s kids entertained. Those include swings on the tail, rock climbing handles, rope and monkey bar handles and a crow’s nest on the neck.

This incredible DIY project didn’t pop up overnight, either. Cosman explained that it took years and more than $10,000 to build the one-of-a-kind jungle gym.

Photo Credit: thecauseman

And he’s not done yet. Cosman said he’s working on a robotics piece for his house, though his new projects won’t be nearly as large as the dinosaur outside. He sure seems like a Dad of the Year lock to me.

Have you ever taken on a fun DIY project for your kids? Tell us about your experience and how the project turned out in the comments below!

A Girl Turns Her Love of Writing Letters Into an Adorable USPS Correspondence Chain

Writing letters is considered old-fashioned, but an 11-year-old just reminded everyone why it’s never too late to take up an old tradition.

Hugh Weber has a daughter named Emerson. And with a single thank-you note to her mail deliveryman, she sparked a crazy correspondence chain with the USPS that has become a story you simply can’t stop reading about.

Her father took to Twitter to explain the amazing chain of events.

According to Hugh, Emerson writes to more than a dozen of her “favorite people.” She decorates the envelopes by hand, and they certainly boast bright colors and interesting designs.

Because of her dedication to writing letters, Emerson certainly keeps her postman busy. So one day, she decided to thank her mail carrier, Doug, for his hard work and dedication to making sure her recipients received her handwritten, hand-decorated letters.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Incredibly, the day after sticking the thank-you note in the mail, she received a package that included stamps and two letters. Amazingly, after Doug shared Emerson’s letter with his supervisor Sara, she wrote a letter of her own. In it, she explained that Doug’s duties would keep him busy, but that he’d receive any letter Emerson wrote to him.

That’s when things went global.

Sara shared the 11-year-old’s letter in a regional newsletter for Western USPS employees, and many started sending letters of their own to the inspiring kid. Doug showed up with two boxes filled with letters from his fellow USPS employees. They shared jokes and expressions of appreciation for Emerson’s efforts.

In addition, they even shared some of their feelings about being away from their family or the difficulties of their job, as Hugh shared on Twitter.

Overall, the efforts of a young girl led many to open up and share their feelings and struggles through her father’s Twitter DMs. Ironically, Emerson’s age didn’t stop her from using an old way of communicating to inspire many people to do the same. So consider folding up your laptop, picking up a pen and paper and writing a letter to someone meaningful in your life.

When was the last time you wrote a letter? What was it about?

The 2020 Gerber Baby Breaks Barrier as the First Adopted Baby Chosen for the Campaign

For ten years, Gerber has conducted an annual photo search contest to find its next Gerber Baby. Last year’s winner, broke a big barrier by becoming the first Gerber Baby with Down syndrome. And in 2020, 1-year-old Magnolia made history in another unique way.

By being named the 2020 Gerber Baby, she became the first adopted baby to win earn the coveted title.

She faced huge odds at winning the contest considering 327,000 entries were submitted to the company’s 10th annual photo search. However, the campaign spans back nearly 100 years when Ann Turner Cook became the first-ever Gerber Baby in 1928.

It certainly represented a fantastic turnout for the Earl family, who adopted Magnolia a year ago. Her mom, Courtney, explained how the life-changing phone call went down.

Courtney shared in the press release:

“On May 9th, 2019 we received a call from the Adoption Agency that there was an expectant mom that was in labor and wanted to talk to us.

We pulled off the highway, got a chance to connect with her amazing birth parents, and a few hours later, this sweet baby girl was born.”

The family still stays in contact with their daughter’s biological parents, which isn’t always the case for adopted children. Winning the photo contest represents a huge milestone for babies around the world. Promoting inclusion and diversity certainly seem important to Gerber.

The company said in a statement to TODAY:

“At Gerber, we have always recognized that every baby is a Gerber baby.

In the 10 years we have hosted Photo Search, we have been proud to feature babies of diverse backgrounds. This year is no exception by featuring Magnolia, our first adopted Gerber Spokesbaby.”

Not only do Magnolia and her family take home bragging rights, but there’s also a big payoff for her victory. She will be featured on Gerber’s social media platforms and marketing campaigns. The family will also receive a $25,000 prize and a number of other prizes. Gerber even gave Magnolia a shoutout on their Instagram page for her first birthday.

But ultimately, the real win is the fact that an adopted baby finally took home the coveted Gerber Baby title, which goes to show it doesn’t matter where you come from.

Have you ever been friends with or have a family member with an interesting adoption story?
