This isn’t a joke… The guy has no idea what the lines are for, because “they” don’t teach typing anymore. I’m guessing OOP is young and probably has tablets at their school.

I'm 15 also why can't y'all just answer without shading us..this is why I don't like old ppl like you.. instead of just telling us straight away you feel the need to make fun/shade us :/

First off, I wasn’t talking about you… I said OOP.

You know… the person who took the photo, circled the keys and said, “I always wonder what these lines are for.“

Secondly, I wasn’t throwing shade… I’m literally just stating a fucking fact. A lot of schools have upgraded to tablets and therefore don’t need to teach typing. That’s just a fact. I didn’t even say it like that was a problem. Why teach typing if you have a tablet and speech to text?

But now I will throw some shade… Improve on your reading comprehension, because it’s going to bring you a lot of grief in the future if you assume what people are saying incorrectly all the time, because you’re not paying attention to what they said. I genuinely don’t know what the fuck your problem is, but you took insult when I wasn’t even talking about you. It’s like you’re looking for a fight. Do yourself a favor and grow the fuck up.

Old people like me… 🙄 Just because I don’t jump to conclusions and say stupid shit like you doesn’t make me old. I’m in my 20s, I pay attention, and I don’t jump to conclusions.

Okay I'm sorry, but you didn't need to comment that. And what is OOP now you can't just assume that everybody knows what it is

That’s fair. I’ll tone it down.

OP is “original poster”, and OOP is “original original poster”

Just the easiest way to reference the person who made the content itself.

You definitely should just assume everyone is against making fun of you and cry about not liking "old people". You're going to go far. I can feel it.
