Why do my family make stupid assumptions?

My Dad and my two brothers, Brad and Ant. They're full of fucking shit. Always complaining and making up the stupidest of shit.

My fat bastard brother Brad, is moaning that I can control the Sky Box (TV box) with my phone. He doesn't like the fact that I can have control over the TV. He's making up bullshit like "Oh, you're not meant to do that, you could break the sky box", " Oh you can't use Mom's Sky remote on our one because of the different model numbers" blah blah blah.

Then my Dad pipes in and he's like "Well if he controls the TV he could mess up the extra security that I set up on it" blah blah blah. Like what the fuck? Do these people know the slightest thing about TV remotes and Infrared? Really pisses me off.

I asked Brad if he knew how Infrared was and if he knew about pulse modulation as well as "sticky bit". He didn't have a clue what I was talking about and didn't like the fact that I actually know how this shit works, as he makes assumption's the dumb fucking cunt. He was like " Oh shut up" then pushed me just because I made him feel like a complete dumb twat.

The rednecks always complain about something that they don't like then make up random shit to "support their claim" when the rest of us know that they're talking out their asses. No wonder why they're so stupid and aren't employable, they don't bother learning about stuff but base things off of their own stupid imagination.

Gggr they piss me off. "Using another TV remote is gonna break the TV" - that's what they were trying to say. Fucking assholes.

Yup. I know that feel. I used to know more stuff that I shouldn't at 10-16 years old, with a family full of shit (not my real family) result: no access to a computer, like never. Now, 20 years old, almost no knowledge in stuff I REALLY like. Beaten by 15 years old people whose parents let them on the computer and video games as much they want to.

Guess they aren't tech savvy... I too don't like people who can't comprehend shit... My mother was worried that "Jailbreaking allows the devs to get at your personal information!" I tried to inform her that this 'fact' was not the case, but in the end, she won. I, of course, don't care about what reason she has for me not to jailbreak, I still do it.
I would give you the "It gets better!" speech, but... then I'd be lying to you... When dealing with ignorant asses, it doesn't get better. All I can say is when you can move out, do so swiftly. For the first few months, keep contact with them. If they are still assholes, cut contact with them. Only keep those who actually care about you close.

Funny you should mention Jailbreaking. My Dad is against the idea of me unlocking the bootloader on my Android devices. I keep telling him that I know what I'm doing but he keeps making up the silliest of rubbish. One time he thought that unlocking my bootloader could interfere with my sim card, I was like "Dad. It doesn't work like that...".

Thanks for the insight, guys :)
