sawylMusing on the absurd and on parents who aren't really all that good with computers, we came up with an outline for a humorous, if not terribly original, short story over coffee.
After taking a computer class, the narrator's elderly father accidentally clicks on a piece of spam and ends up with a 19 year-old Russian mistress. Hampered by the language barrier and too polite to do anything overt about the situation, the parents modify their domestic situation into a sort-of ménage à trois that works around their slightly unwanted houseguest. There then follow any number of amusing scenes in which the parents, mildly baffled by their current situation, try to maintain the dignities of their existence whilst all the time trying to be scrupulously considerate of the cuckoo in their nest.
Well, it seemed funny to us.
