My dad used IE till the day it died, despite knowing that Chrome/Firefox was a better option. Some people just don’t want to change if they don’t have to.

Sometimes I wish I could give as few fucks about it all as they do.

i think we all have areas of life that we treat like your dad treats his web browsers. for example, im like that when it comes to cooking. i could probably cook meals that tasted much better if i put in a bit more effort into learning different techniques and some new recipes. but i just don’t like cooking that much and the stuff i make is good enough for me. my dad is much like yours when it comes to web browsers, but he knows a lot more about cooking than i do, and he enjoys it a lot more too.
