My Nephew: "What's a fax machine?"

Me: "A landline network of low quality printers people used to use to do invoices and file for divorce."

My Nephew: "Landline?"

So my oldest kid was grounded from her iPhone one time. Feeling generous one evening, I told her she could use the desk phone in my office to call friends on. It's an old school red landline with no frills. Just buttons to dial the number and an actual bell that rings. The kind that's only an upgrade from a rotary disl. It's mostly for emergencies and never gets used.

Anyway, she sits down at the desk, stares at the phone, and is like, "Ok. What do I do?" It took me a second to realize she was asking how to make a phone call. I told her to pick up the handset and dial the phone number. The whole time she's just shooting me looks like she doesn't believe this is actually going to work.

And the name of the kid: Albert Einstein
