If there's one rule about the Internet that has rung true since its inception it's that old people are not experts at using it, with some notable exceptions. Whether it's checking their email (which they will often call "their website"), or Googling information, old folks are just not that keen on what type of content they can access on the Interenet, or how to access it. To play into this trend of old people attempting to use the Internet, here's a gallery of senior citizens "using" computers, which they hopefully will not be able to find. Otherwise, we'll just look like jerks.
