So i talked to my dad about a smart TV a few weeks ago, he needed a small TV for their bedroom. He was really wanting to go the 4k smart TV rout because my brother just picked up a 80 something inch 4k Smart TV,

Also to add, they do have wirless internet, but its the small town, someone put up a antenna somewhere on a tall tree and they get maybe 500k DL, and they also only have an antenna for TV.

So after our conversation i had him talked into the cheap $200 Walmart 32" "dumb" TV because they wouldent be able to tell the difference.

So i talked to him today and sure as shit they got a  32" 1080P Smart TV from best buy for around $600

thats not the worst part... He was telling me how awesome it was, but then said he refused to hook it up to the internet

I just dont get it... but i know, its their money and all

The guy that sold it to him assumed he knew what the 'smart' part was. Never explained it to him.

My parents are like that.  My mom refuses to shop online, my dad has had an iphone for 3yrs n has no idea how to use it.  They always pay way too much for shit bc my mom wont compare prices she just buys shit.  

Ive tried n tried to help them but they refuse to learn, its worse that teaching my kids.
