00:00 The world may be going to sh*t, but at least we can all count on our grandmas to always
00:03 be sweet and perfect.
00:07 So British man with a very British name, Ben Eckersley, opened his grandmother's laptop
00:11 to find this adorable Google search still on the screen.
00:15 It reads, "Please translate these Roman numerals.
00:18 MCMXCVIII thank you."
00:21 D'awww, she thinks that Google is a people.
00:25 But unfortunately, Google doesn't really appear to do all that well with proper speaking
00:29 etiquette, because if you were to type that exact phrase into your search bar, this is
00:33 what would pop up.
00:34 Damn Google, didn't your mom teach you any manners?
00:37 By the way, in case you're wondering, the correct answer is 1998.
00:40 But naturally, the internet is loving the cuteness of Ben's nan.
00:43 Bonnie Hawkins, the world could use more thoughtful people like this.
00:47 Indeed.
00:48 A. The Lind, you laugh, but when the singularity comes, they'll remember who was polite.
00:52 Ben recently tweeted a photo of him with his now famous grandma, and she is just as perfect
00:57 and adorable as you might expect.
00:59 I'm just wondering what other items might be in her Google search history.
01:02 Who is that man from that movie I like?
