Ever seen an adult open Google Chrome, type in google, click the first link to www.google.com, then click the search bar on the page and begin to search? I have.
Gonna need the story on that one. It reminds me of trying to teach my grandpa to use a mouse. Not his fault, he had a fifth grade education then went into the mines. This was all magic to him. So every time he wanted the cursor to go higher on the screen he’d lift the mouse in the air. We couldn’t get past it- this motion on the horizontal plane becomes that motion on the vertical plane.
I’m sure I could teach a man like him now that I know how to teach. At the time I was an impatient young teen.
Might have had a tremor disorder. Might have been an alcoholic, I’ve been there before shaking so bad. My friend has essential tremor. It’s actually had a big impact on his life and the way people perceive him.
My gen z son is like a computer wizard to me a fairly proficient millennial so I don’t think it’s a generational thing
Both outliers. I teach high schoolers and watching them use a computer is a suicide claxon.

I once watched an adult need both hands to click on a button and haven’t been surprised since.
You have my first two-handed upvote.

It was the cashier on a stationery shop. She had to hold the mouse in place with one hand so it wouldn’t move, then used the other hand to click it.

Damn, now I feel bad for laughing at the original comment
