I think the correct response is "Wow. Has your mom seen it? Send her the link."

why? wouldn't she simply be unable to open it too?

If it’s on the same device, it would open a page showing her what is in the downloads folder of his user. I think the joke is he might have something embarrassing there, but I wouldn’t know since I only have things there when I’m downloading them and then immediately file them away to some actual hyperspecific folder

why would they be on the same device? how can they be on the same device at the same time? also if she gets the full link it would only show her the html page, not the rest of the folder

I think it's both?

Send link to her but it doesn't work because it's only available on the local machine
Show the website by first opening the downloads folder then clicking the website

You can bring your device to people. Most people use laptops now instead of desktops
