Lifetime Gets Streaming Wrong

Isn’t it funny (because it’s true) when old people have trouble with technology? Like that time you were in Florida and tried to get nana on Facebook. But then she got it.

Plus she would have realized it’s no more ridiculous than her own theory, that God punished Kate’s sexing her husband by making her age twelve years in a month.
