No joke, once my mom called and asked me how to take a picture on iphone and send it to me for printing. It took me 15 mins to patiently explain it while she took notes. 1hr later all I got was an sms with the word ''picture''... I cried for the 1st time in 6 yrs.
🤣🤣🤣sorry for your pain
swiss trippin
Hahahahahaahaa 😂 omg you poor child. LOLOL. That's terrible
@@jesse-5318 Dear sir or ma'am, I'm an adult-sized man, a gentleman and a scholar!...Good day!
This made me lol
Are you ok now?
I felt the rage. Explaining computer shit to anyone over a certain age really IS special type of torture.
That age is anyone over 35
It's not about age.. My father is 60 and he would kick most people's asses on fixing computer issues, bar maybe an IT professional..
The issue is with all the cunts who spent the entirety of the 80's, 90's and 00's ignoring computers at every opportunity, either hoping they'd go away, or branding them as something only the geeks needed to know about..
Now those stupid fuckfaces need to use a computer to do almost everything in life, and they barely know their Shift from their Caps Lock, let alone navigating a basic webpage or file system.. Admittedly though, it keeps Business Development Managers like me in the IT industry employed, because there's not one, not two, but literally three generations of fuckface cunts who thought they were too cool to use a computer during the early years, and now anything more complex than double clicking on Google Chrome makes their miniscule brains melt out their ears..
Funkteon
Geez...
Anthony Peppers My mother told me that she would laugh at her grandparents because they couldn’t work their way around a TV when she was growing up lol...it’s a funny cycle.
@@Funkteon I feel the pain: From a guy that simply used a computer as a toy growing up, literally everyone I know calls me the 'tech' guy, as if using a computer is something special and requires 100% of your brain to use... lol how can you use a smartphone but not be able to translate that knowledge to using your f***ing computer??
Got too real when he said “you’re right ma, whoever designed the system is stupid”
True
All the societies that we humans designed is stupid infact 😅 and the intelligent ones get killed because of jealousies etc 😅
"Moms are like t-rex; they can't see things if they don't move..."
I fell off my chair and died! 🤣
You rose from death and wrote this comment? Bravo.
"Sure, they had their own challenges. Like Hitler"
I'm crying.
immagen hittler calling asking for tech support
LMFAO SAME
imperlast2 💀
T
Bubonic plague...lol
"Mom, just give me your CZcams login and password, I will fix it now. " Then my mother thought I am an Indian internet Scammer and hung up on me.
😂😂😂😂😂
LMAO
My mum always thinks I magically know all her passwords when she can’t remember them.
Lmao 😂 😂 😂
You poor thing.
😂😂😂😂
Did I just watch Ronny go through a PTSD episode of flashbacks of fixing his mom's computer?
“Don’t book my flight I’ll book it myself YOU’LL MESS IT UP!!!”
LMAO Sounds more like he's venting than telling a joke LOL
That's literally 95% of the "jokes" I ever tell, anymore. But then, I'm old.
Now get off my lawn!
@@thecooldadddddd LOL I feel ya I'm the same way LOL Still enjoyed it though
That makes it relatable! Lol
Russell Anderson but dude, it’s just so relatable...
And it works!
The dislikes are probably from moms who didn’t know how to press the like button
So your Mom did her part, huh? Good for her.
lmao
classic.
Abe tu Pakistani hai
hahahahahah
"Everything in the universe is stupid except for you, Mom"
I totally felt that one.
Ohh man... The mom situation is 100% relatable. Add to that the fact that you have to speak nicely, cannot get angry at them and have to make sure they feel appreciated for the efforts they are putting ... All the time while frustration builds up inside you.
You know she was just standing in the kitchen staring out the window while he was explaining what to do.
naw, she was staring at the toaster, with a mouse in a mouse trap in her right hand
@@pierrecurie 337 to 1
how much you want to bet she WAS in front of the computer but instead of moving the mouse as usual she picked it up and literally shook it..and the pc went onto sleep mode due to no activity lol
@@pierrecurie Wait isn't that every other Mom does tho?
This is literally the first time I've ever heard someone mention torrents in a stand up routine and I'm highly amused by it.
I know right? It's like, "Oh my god I save so much money doing that!"
the best 'modern' stand-up i've seen so far. Amazing that we live in such a digital age and spend so much time on our computers but it's taking its sweet time to stand up
Juan your name sounds like a slow Internet: 1g
yup i am still amazed allot of people dont know about torrents
:3
It's scary how accurate this is, whenever my mom called me with laptop problems I almost had an aneurysm...at one point I decided to just give her the biggest ipad and now she's happy
My son has also said "Mom mom mom you're giving me an aneurysm RIGHT NOW!!!"
My old man’s law office gave-up trying to get their senior lawyers to learn Windows. When the iPad Pro came-out the boss issued tablets to all the attorneys.
My dad’s iPad Pro has been serving as a toy for his youngest granddaughter, who lives with him, for the last five years.
This was way too real for me. I want to thank Ronny. I never realized I was not alone. Maybe someday, a support group for the countless number of us that have and continue to experience this form of torture will be formed.
We shall call it “Domestic Tech Support Anonymous.”
@@keysncoffee7733 move the Anonymous to the top and we're good, I'm really afraid that other elders would think this was a grandkid service for tech support and calls us up to help them as well. The pay vs the torture is a dilemma for me
Apple Anonymous
Now you know how we felt when we were trying to teach you to tie your shoelaces!
@@kathieaberman8073i hope that's not your real name right there
As a Singaporean living in Australia with a computer illiterate parent, this is highly specific content that I appreciate LMAO HELP
I'm in the same boat as you! 😂
Install some sort of remote desktop software on their computer, like Team Viewer.
@chubbyurma Lol you should have ignored him, just like Crystal did.
@ThatBadGuy lol white settler-colonial
Same for me. My Grandpa is the same as your parent and we spent COUNTLESS hours trying to teach him.
I asked my grandp to put the mouse pointer on the screen, he lifted up the mouse off the pad and he literally put the mouse on the surface of the screen.
OMG this is so funny. LMAO.
Mohammed Hijazi my grandpa once called me bc the mouse had reached the end of the table and he didn’t know how to go further... it took me stupidly long to explain he had to lift the mouse from the table and go further...
@@femkevdw8369 hahaha , oh $hitt!!! the edge of the table, the end of the world for mouse.
Nooo, lollll
Ahh the ol' Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs scene
As an IT professional in a corporate, now that we have to arrange virtual meetings with aged directors, I can relate.
Several times a year I watch this sketch by Ronnie Cheng to cheer myself up after helping my elderly parents do something basic on a computer... like add an email attachment, or save a file to a folder. It doesn't matter how much I try to help them, nothing sinks in. I fricken love this sketch! Everyone below a certain age can relate to it. Thank you Ronnie, you funny bastard!
Coming right after excruciatingly explained how to scan a QR code to my mom and failed. 😅
came here with same reason, idk how many times ive been going back and forth to this vid over the years.. here just to share the frustration
Put this guy and Bill Burr in a room 😂They would rage so much together that the global temperature would rise by one degree
Jason L LMFAOOO
Bill burr had ronny opening for him on his last Australian tour. Bill likes his stuff
😆 🤣
🤣🤣
This is the best comment ive seen today...just made me laugh harder to the point I can see heaven!
Throw in Sebastian Maniscalco and just watch the fireworks LMFAO
This is the most relatable thing I've ever seen 😂😂😂😂
@@sultanaalven5590 A comment thief. Didn't even try. You can just rephrase it a bit if you don't the aptitude to come up with a comment, but you didn't even have the self respect to seem original.
I remember my grandma decided she wanted to go back to college a few years back… and her classes were online. This rendition is extremely accurate.
My moms went back to school after 30 plus years, and the torture we had trying to explain Word and PowerPoint to her. That feeling bro
"I promise the white arrow's there, mom..." hilarious
Moms are like t-Rex: can’t see it if it’s not moving 😂 brilliant
So true! I am that mom!
That was literally me word for word. My last torture session was in setting up Google Chrome Remote Desktop for my mom over the phone. Took 3 hrs but it was well worth it. What used to take forever and end up in failure and frustration can now be done in a few clicks.
zoom does that too I think. My dad once helped me through my complicated scholarship-fee taxes 300 miles away (Im in college) with controlling my mouse through screen share. I didn't even know zoom could do that!!! I'm so fortunate my mom has my dad to help her with her computer illiteracy lol
Oh my gosh! My long lost son!!!!!!! He is describing me and my computer skills. I was laughing so hard it freaked my cats out! He is hilarious.
This is SO much my son and I! I am 61 and he is 29. I messaged him this morning to thank him for all of his help when I first started learning computers. But I'm sure we're not done yet!
thats lovely susan
you even used your real name! anyway your son doesnt need to teach you. just add reddit whn you are google questions
Glad for you Susan. First of all, use a fake name please
Love how everyone's advising to use a fake name😂
We got a real name here boys
Then the parents/elders praise you for being a computer genius...not really
🤦🏽♀️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My parents think I'm a computer genius.
I don't correct them.
E/p: you spend Waaaaay too much time on your phone
I mean dude’s absolutely right... younger people just have a better intuitive understanding of technology... ever seen a three year old that can barely talk, yet somehow they’re a wizard with a tablet?
I find it kind of borderline patronising. "you think it's clever that I knew how to turn your monitor brightness up? you should see what I do at work."
"I hope you'll be willing to cooperate with us, Mr. Chieng. I don't want to hurt you, but if you refuse to cooperate, I'm afraid I'll have to force you to explain to your mother how to write code for Minesweeper...
over the phone...
in C++."
He confessed,Sir.
His mom is actually a genius she figured out how to get him to come and visit
the anger and the accent is a perfect combination. this guy is great
The anger and the accent are* ...
Hi from Singapore 🇸🇬
She did all that computer 💻 BS just to see her baby boy again after so long. She miss you 😘 Ronny Chieng.
you made your account using your real name. did you not listen to the video at all??
She’s been looking for the red x for 9 months
Ngl that's an adorable comment tho
Tonight I had to explain to my 80 year old grandma how to get to the App Store on her iPad to download zoom and all I could think about was this sketch 😂😂
For me the worst torture is the pain I feel few mins post hanging up the phone, after shouting at my mom "Cant you understand such a simple thing".
Ah well try to calm down more and relax when ur talking to her
@Bridget Addaney Hey, thanks for ur comment. I always apologize post the outburst. Moms never show their frustration cos they absorb it all! 😌
The level of stress i got from this while laughing. Lmao
It's very controversial when you're laughing from the real pain.
i have experienced this, too. not just from my Mom, but also from my Dad. one example is when my Mom asked how to copy-paste, move, and delete images from iPad to the desktop. i taught her multiple times, showed her slowly and visually what to do a few times, and even wrote the steps down in simple words. she still couldn't do it. it's just one of those things i can't ever figure out. she could drive a car, cook many dishes, do budgeting, etc., but for some reason or another, when it comes to certain things, there seems to be this huge and thick mental block or psychological barrier to learn something new. even if that something new is as simple as copy-paste images from one device to another.
LoL, can relate! My mom is 65 and explaining smart phone to her is really a torture!
Ronnie is my new favorite comedian, hehehe...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I haven't laughed that hard in awhile lol props to this dude
This is why I avoid introducing new tech to my parents. Because anyone who introduces it, usually becomes the default tech support person.
Ronny Chieng is everyone's spirit animal
“When you get there she wasn’t even in front of the computer” ROFL 🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣
The dude is straight up venting. LOL
Me: “Where are you inside your iPad?”
Them: “The living room.”
Me: 🤦♀️
Adrian Selder soooo friggen true, lmao
This guy looks like a youth pastor gone rogue
This is still the best of Ronny Chieng I've ever seen even though they're ALL brilliant.
And then you get there.. she wasn’t even infront if her Computer 💻! DEAD 🤣🤣🤣
“You don’t see the white arrow”. 😂
My God how true! Solving my mother’s computer issues are torture, especially when she wants it done NOW!
"Your mom could find a virus on Google homepage."
Okay this is funny 🤣
Lmao this is a struggle I've endured... explaining how to navigate the minefield of the internet
How could this have only 34k views
1.4 million a year later, well deserved!
well its 1.8M
Chill, 1.8 now, yeah
This is my mother in law in a nutshell. She looks at a computer and it gets a virus....
I've watched his previous version of this joke in his earlier stand-up career and this is the best version by far. Well done Ronny!
LOL holy shit the accuracy. Every guy has experienced this. I'm in tears
I taught computer classes to the elderly OMG the pain the torture I'm pretty sure I develop some type of aneurysm from holding back all my anger during classes
i don't mean to be rude but you might need to take anger management classes. ignorant people trying their best but making mistakes shouldn't make you feel that angry (especially when you chose to be their teacher in the first place).
@@teas9892 I'm a professional so of course I didn't lash out but it was hard especially when the elderly don't want to take me serious because I'm the same age as their grandchildren
I just love how angry he is 😂😂🙌
A mom i knew, somehow clicked on a link in google and managed to call a scammer group!
They were confused because theyre supposed to call you 😂
The Chinese and Aussie accents have blended. So cool!
Hear the Aussie influence but honestly a lot of Singaporeans have his accent too. It’s a mix for sure
@@howiestyles4938 he has lost the Aussie since this video...living in the US now.
@ThatBadGuy living up to the name!👍
@ThatBadGuy nope calling someone dumb is. Especially when it comes to opinions.
ThatBadGuy you are a troll!
My mom doesnt know how to use the computer that well except when buying jewelry for some reason. But she did know how to raise 5 kids and move to another country and work full time while going to school without so much as a complaint. And in our earlier life she was a city girl who moved to a farm and learned to milk cows, grow vegetables, wash clothes by hand every night, and fill up a bathing house for us, without so much as a complaint. I dont think I could raise even one child half as well. I cant even pick up a baby confidently. Parents are amazing. And their handwriting is beautiful.
what a strong son patiently explaining how to fix the problems
This is exactly why Ronny Chieng is in my top 5 favorite comedians of all time
His story was so vivid to me, then I realized I was in the same situation.
I feel like it's a real life experience for him hahahaha
Yeah, me too. 😂😂
I noticed how bloodshot his eyes were after the rant! Very funny guy.
I relate so hard to this. XD
It took my grandparents four months to learn how to answer a phone call on their mobile. Two more to learn how to end a call. I could hear them argue for minutes about how to “turn that thing of”. :D
The best piece, so vivid, real!!
protip : install some remote access software in your parent's computer. of course half the time they end up somehow disabling it, but at least you have a fighting chance
That first joke is way too real lmao I just TRIED explaining this the other day 😂😂😂
ronny you make my days man, here in uganda strreaming to your videos
That was one of the best bit from him. Love it!
AWESOME performance!!! GENIUS comedic material. Love the fact that he DID NOT cover TRITE stereotypical topics like fast food, feng shui, and kung fu. Ronny Chieng = MUST SEE COMEDIAN.
I genuinely laughed out loud from this 💀💀😂 oh lord, this man is hilarious
loving this comedian. one of the best. the way he delivers it is so real yet funny.
This video made me cry, this is so, so, so on point 10/10
Trying to do IT with your mom when you cant see her screen. Worst torture. SO TRUE forty minutes of my life i will never get back. lol
When he started talking about how hard it is to teach a mom how to use technology and I realize… I have the technical prowess of a mom
That was so freaking funny. The Trex part about the mouse not moving killed me :'D.
This is literally like the time I had to explain my mom how to click the three dots on the screen to go to settings on Google. I was dying 🤣🤣🤣 so relatable
OMG!!!! I used to do this for most of my family, no wonder I'm so screwed up. If you ask me, remote terminal and later remote desktop are the true greatest inventions of modern technology.
One of the most hilarious things I've ever seen one of my favorite actors in Crazy Rich Asians
You are incredible Ronny....Thank you so much
I felt his pain the moment he said to his mother he was booking a ticket home.
This was great! I'll be on the lookout for more of this guy's stuff.
Omg. Finally a comic that talks about this situation that i go through all the time.
Yep, too true!! Fell off my chair laughing! Thank you!
Dude, this is the funniest standup i have seen in the longest time. I have seen other videos of you and have loved watching your work. You are funnier and funnier every time. Keep up the great work, brother. Btw, the movie bit is exactly the conversation i have with my son and the computer bit is exactly conversation I have with my mother. I couldn't stop laughing.
I can relate to this soooo much. The most excruciating form of torture.
😂😂😂 this guy is hilarious..... parents are the same everywhere
Sadly, I've only recently discovered Ronny Chieng thru TDS, but he's my new favorite comedian. They should give him the permanent slot over there.
2:30 “parents generation had to deal with hitler, depression, bubonic plague...”
Year 2020 : haha you think that’s funny...
No offense, but COVID ain't got SHIT on the bubonic plague!
That was no joke the funniest skit I've seen in my life. I couldn't stop laughing
My boi was in his feels this was for sure a real call
Wasn't even in front of the computer!! 🤣🤣🤣
Great! Thank you!
Ronny Chieng is a very funny fellow.
I understand his sense of humour.
He’s good ! I’m impressed and gonna check out more of his material for sure
Oh My God!!! that was priceless. How talented in this guy!!!
Oh God, so true! My mom only uses YT on her laptop but somehow gets new programs/malware installed every other day! I'm constantly uninstalling/rolling back. Don't even mention whenever Windows has updates. Major mess every time! I love her but like Ronny here I usually end up screaming as I try to explain anything computer-related 😂
