after realizing just how much `fun` you could have trying to explain things to our Nan's, i thought it best to start this thread so as we all get some explanation-worthy material! :lol:

i'll start with; the internet

(actually my nan said tme the other day "i dont want you to go to the internet, people die there" how do you answer that one??? :lol: )
