They didn't always have pop-up blockers. Cookies checking? Your Dad checks your cookies or is this something new I'm not aware of?
They have since I've used the internet I think-I only used the computer to play Lemmings for years! My mum checks my cookies! Though not so much anymore-they trust me for some reason!

Wow, has your Dad dealt with some particularly bad cases or something?
My parents were a bit lax with my internet safety. I came back from London once, they asked me where I'd been and I replied "I met someone I knew off of the internet." Which was met with a general "You probably shouldn't do that."

He's on the murder squad-all his cases are bad! Haha! I think I'd be exiled for life for that. That's apparently the course of action if I smoke.

I think there is a similar situation in my house if I decided to support a team other than West Ham. "Sure son, you can support Manchester United. You can't live here though!"
The murder squad? Wow, gruesome.
*Parents look satisfied and snicker*?
My dad's not bad like that with football-though you can't say he's not dedicated to his team. *That* tattoo.

He likes to think it's epic.

It is. I bet you always won "My dad's better than your dad."

Anyone who believes those are actually reliable are fools! It's like piling up a dozen sandbags against a cyclone.

Tell us! Tell us!
zooo, even you would be shocked at some of the stuff I have read, seen and watched. Pretty much a name-anything scenario.
I really would not know where to begin!
Tell us something that shocked you!
I'd be interested to know what would... 
I am resisting temptation after what Mark said in peep show before the break 
Aaron how old are you, I need to know?

Erm. I'm not sure I've really been shocked by anything, to be honest! (Except the ugliness of some sites. But I guess that's not the kind of thing you're looking for!) Errrmmm... I actually honestly don't know!

21
Why do you 'need' to know, Alan?
21 seriously? I thought you were about 27-28
