They may be older and wiser, but when it comes to technology it seems the more senior generation still has a lot to learn. The most entertaining examples of parents and grandparents suffering technological fails have been shared on and there's no denying they make for some hilarious viewing. The pictures include a grandmother putting 'please' and 'thank you' at the end of every Google search, a woman sending 'photos' with her thumb covering the lens, and a confused pensioner using an iPad as a chopping board.

From writing down the entire website link to using the mouse upside down, the fails are so spectacular it's hard not to want to help.

Email With his third feature film as writer-director, Judd Apatow is carving out a singular niche in American movies. While he’s borrowed from the Kevin Smith template — smart nerdy guys hide their fragile hearts behind a barrage of pop-culture references and below-the-waist humor — he also seems to be channeling French New Wave director Eric Rohmer with his long and seemingly meandering films that use the subtleties of conversation to peel back the layers of his characters.

And so, while “Funny People” is never not hilarious, it also doesn’t follow the traditional beats that Hollywood movies so dutifully hit. Prepare to laugh, yes, but also be ready to let Apatow take his good sweet time in telling his story. Adam Sandler stars as George Simmons, a very Adam Sandler–ian kind of comedian who made the leap from the stand-up stage to hit movies like “Re-Do” (he plays a guy who wishes to be young again only to wind up in an infant’s body) and “Merman” (you can guess). His solitary Malibu lifestyle gets a jolt when his doctor informs him that he’s got a very rare blood disease; there’s an experimental treatment, but so far it’s succeeded only on a tiny percentage of people. George decides to do a set at a comedy club, but it all comes out dark and morbid, so up-and-comer Ira (Seth Rogen) can’t resist goofing on the star. George likes Ira’s set enough to hire him to write some jokes for him, and soon Ira becomes George’s confidant, learning all about George’s disease and about Laura (Leslie Mann), the love of George’s life who left him for cheating on her.

.A big thanks to I Love New York for hosting my road trip! Did you know there’s an archipelago of 1,864 islands straddling New York (USA) & Ontario (Canada)? Honestly, it wasn’t until I was researching road trip ideas from NYC that I learned about the 1000 Islands. How could I have not known. Beautiful photos and great write-up of a spectacular area! We were also camped at Thousand Island Lake on the night of the fireball. Four of us were up watching the stars from a granite dome overlooking the lake when we noticed a bright light approaching from the west. Funny Pictures Toolbar 1000 Islands. The Money Market Hedge: How It Works Irish pound - Wikipedia If you had to relocate to a remote island and you were given the choice to take 25 of the loveliest faces in the world with you, who would you pick? Actually, Bread Crusts.

We also get to know Ira’s roommates, fellow comic Leo (Jonah Hill) and vain sitcom star Mark (Jason Schwartzman), not to mention Laura’s strapping husband Clarke, played by Eric Bana, the man whose “Munich” performance was the subject of a memorable joke in Apatow’s “Knocked Up.” I’m loath to give away much else, but suffice it to say we really get to know these people and their capability for both love and cruelty. Rage and spite are never too far from the surface of funny people — or “Funny People,” for that matter — and Apatow very deftly lets the tone go from jokey to uncomfortable and back, even within the confines of a single scene.

Seth Rogen The new king of the R-rated comedy, Seth Rogen got his start on Judd Apatow's 'Freaks and Geeks' as one of the 'freaks,' Ken Miller. He went on to appear in Apatow's other short-lived series, 'Undeclared.' Rogen's first film role came in 'Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgandy,' where he appeared as 'eager cameraman.' But, when pal Apatow cast Rogen in 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin,' he got his first taste of big-screen stardom. He's gone on to big success in 'Knocked Up,' 'Superbad,' Pineapple Express' and 'Zack and Miri Make a Porno.' His 2009 films are 'Monsters vs.

Aliens,' 'Funny People' and 'Observe and Report.' He co-wrote the script and will star in Michel Gondry's 'The Green Hornet.'

Jonah Hill Jonah Hill (right) may not have started out in the Apatow gang, but after a small role in 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin,' he was quickly made part of the go-to team. Hill has appeared in films as varied as 'Rocket Science,' Click' and 'Strange Wilderness' (pictured at right with Justin Long). But he became a true leading man in 2007's 'Superbad' as Seth, a high school boy determined to get alcohol for a party so he'll have a chance to lose his virginity to his dream girl. Hill has gone on to appear in films such as 'Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story,' 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' and 'Horton Hears a Who!' His 2009 films are 'Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian,' 'Funny People' and 'This Side of Truth.' Paul Rudd Most people probably remember Paul Rudd from his early role in 1995's 'Clueless,' but he didn't take the typical teen movie path after that.

He appeared in the series 'Sisters' and films as varied as 'Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers' to 'Romeo + Juliet' to '200 Cigarettes.' But most people got a true sense of his comic ability in 2001's 'Wet Hot American Summer.' He went on to appear in 'Friends,' 'Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy,' 'The Baxter' before finally joining the Apatow gang with 'The 40-Year-Old-Virgin.' Since then, he's appeared in many films, including, 'Night at the Museum,' 'Knocked Up,' 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' and 'Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story.' Since his roles in 'Role Models' and 'I Love You, Man,' this actor has earned deserved leading-man status. His other 2009 films are 'Year One' and 'Monsters vs.

Jason Segel Though he appeared in four movies prior to his stint as Nick Andopolis in 'Freaks and Geeks,' Jason Segel, (right) like Rogen, is really one of the founding members of the Apatow gang. Anyone who saw him as Eric, the obsessive boyfriend, in 'Undeclared,' knew that this actor had comedy chops. Though he's appeared in films over the years, including 'Knocked Up,' he didn't really become a leading man until he sat down and wrote his own starring vehicle, 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' (pictured at right with Jonah Hill in a scene from the film). His 'I Love You, Man' bromance with Paul Rudd has only made his star rise more. And in addition to his film work he has a full time role in the CBS series 'How I Met Your Mother.'

Danny McBride Danny McBride didn't wait to be cast in his first big screen role, instead he made his own luck, co-writing and starring in 2006's 'The Fist Foot Way.' The actor quickly went on to roles in films, such as 'Hot Rod,' 'Superbad,' 'The Heartbreak Kid,' before really breaking out as a star in 2008, doing scene-stealing work in 'Pineapple Express' and 'Tropic Thunder.' He's one of the co-creators and stars in the darkly hilarious HBO series, 'Eastbound & Down' (pictured). His 2009 films are 'Observe and Report' and 'Land of the Lost.'

He appears in 'Saint John of Las Vegas' in 2009. Elizabeth Banks Elizabeth Banks made her first real mark in comedy in 2001's 'Wet Hot American Summer,' in which she played Lindsay, Paul Rudd's neglected girlfriend. She went on to many roles in both film and television, including 'Spider-Man,' 'Catch Me if You Can,' 'Seabiscuit' and 'The Baxter,' before being cast a girl that Steve Carell tries to pick up at a book store in 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin.' She went on to appear in a semi-regular role on 'Scrubs,' and to appear in films such as 'Meet Dave' and 'Fred Claus.' But 2008 was Banks' breakthrough year with roles in 'W.,' 'Role Models' and Zach and Miri Make a Porno.'

Getty Images / Getty Images The cast’s real-life work gets woven into the film throughout: The opening credits roll over ancient video footage of a teenage Sandler making prank calls, while Mann’s real-life TV commercials reel makes a brief appearance.

Even Rogen’s recent weight loss is cited throughout, with Hill — who played “Seth” in the Rogen-scripted “Superbad” — remarking, “Before you lost all that weight, you were me.” It will be interesting to see how audiences react to “Funny People,” because Apatow seems determined to make things difficult for those on the extremes. People expecting an Adam Sandler yuk-fest may not know what to make of all the melancholy and morbidity, while highbrows may find themselves put off by the endless stream of dick jokes, no matter how true they are to these characters and how they communicate with each other. Those who have come to appreciate Apatow’s style and to see through the easy criticisms of his work, however, will revel in a moving, angry but mostly laugh-filled film that heralds the continuing growth of a promising American filmmaker.
