it better be a Lionel.

In before the self righteous parents come in saying it served the mother right for allowing her kid to be on the computer

Was the listing from Sodor? I hear those trains talk at least.

Been there, done that. My child bought porn on my television (through on-demand feature). I put a lock on my on-demand features. Live and learn.

Just goes to show you... NEVER take them out of the box.

Is "old train" the new lemon party?

One does not simply talk in Sodor.

That always reminds me of this scene:

The Groove Tube (1974) - Memorable quoteswww.imdb.com/title/tt0071583/quotesCached - Similar

That sounds like a train, I'm gonna do a "non-stop" on you choo-choo. ...

Not a parent, so JoeyJoJo has no jurisdiction here. Besides, that's the worst name I ever heard.

I love toy trains! [video].

/Friend's cat has ordered multiple things off eBay and some auto sites
//and yet he still forgets to shut the damn laptop lid while he has auctions he's watching up
///didn't believe him at first, but yep, he bid on something while he was at a concert with us leaving the Hemingway cat all alone to practice its fine motor skills

I didn't watch it with her.....Actually, I noticed them while looking up my bill (I worked for the cable company at the time). I couldn't figure out how the pornos appeared. They were ordered on a Sunday around church service time. Then I realized that on the particular Sunday they were ordered, I had a migraine. I was medicated and asleep when she ordered them. Sneaky little buzzard isn't she?

My 4 year old nephew managed to figure out his mom's password and buy $40 worth of Angry Bords stuff - Anything is possible

My cats sold our dog on eBay.

Should answer some questions

They aren't that expensive...

My dad collects Lionel.

Can get expensive if you're a collector (he's only got half of the pre-WWII cars and doesn't expect to find any more for a price he's willing to pay), but he finds workable $5 cars all the time that he fixes up with paint and whatnot to turn around for $10.

As long as the kid isn't a snob they can hit up trains shows and probably get some free + crazy cheap extra track and cheap cars, couple other accessories and there you go. Plus if the kid gets really into the mechanics behind trains 'cause of it, win win. You could buy a cheap set new but hell, spring for the stuff that'll last for years and years if properly taken care of.

My son has been using computers since he was three (four now). He only uses Chrome, which doesn't have any logins or anything saved, since I'm on Firefox. He does watch some questionable stuff on Youtube, though (and he has ordered PPV porn too).

What advantages does this motor car have over, say, a train - which I could also afford?

Woo-woo!!!!

This happened to my wife a few weeks back. She has been at the computer, and left it open while she was getting dinner ready. My 4 year old jumps up, and within 5 minutes, he had her Facebook account loaded and had bought $20 worth of credits for one of those Farmville-type games. We looked afterwards, and he would have had to click through 3 or 4 links to complete the purchase. Not hard to do for an inquisitive little guy.

"What advantages does this motor car have over, say, a train -- which I could also afford?"

I'd have slapped the "unlikely" tag onto this, but that could just be me.

In other news, the Greater Wellington Regional Council got a free national advertisement to sell an old junk train, with price that they will happily take included.
