Haha, isn’t it hilarious when a beloved family member dies? Tell everyone in the family! We could all use a good belly laugh.

Dear old mom and pop might try hard to stay up to date on technology and web trends, but they don’t always succeed in that mission. Whether they’re embarrassing their offspring on Facebook or trying (and failing) to be relevant on Twitter, the following twenty text exchanges prove that those sweet but hilariously clueless parental units should probably not text. Maybe just call us or send us an email?  If all else fails, there’s always snail mail!

Click through the gallery to see some of the funniest text messages ever typed by some of the delightfully inept people who gave us life.

Real smooth, mom!  Speaking of smooth… what comes up when you google Johnny Depp’s butt, anyway?
