Genius Button

Mom: "Melondie-a, what does this button do on phone?"
Me: "Oh, thats your genius button. You push it and tell it what you want."
Mom: "Wah you mean?"
Me: "Say you want to find a business but you're driving. You push it and say, "Find a business... Korean restaurant. It will pull up all the Korean restaurants around you on your Google Map."
::Mom looks at phone and pushes the Genius Button::
Mom: "KOREAN RESTAURAN!"
Me: "No lady! You don't have to yell at it. Just do what it promps you to do."
::Mom tries it again::
Mom: "Pind-u business-u... Korean restauran."
Phone: "Did you say, "Call Melondie mobile 1?"
Mom: "Why it never do it?"
::Laughing very hard::
Me: "Cause your phone doesn't understand Kongrish. God you're old."


Husband bought Mom a smart phone and after 2 months of having it, she still doesn't know what she's doing. I'm glad we both can get a good laugh out of it.
