Never drove one
We gotta teach you how to drive a stick brotha 
It's just another unit of angular measurement based on circles.
The MOA brain that actually uses it for field measurements believes there's 360 degrees in a circle, then further brains that into 60 "minutes" of angularity (1 MOA = 1/60th of each one of those 360 degrees).
The mil brain believes there's 6,283.15 mils in the same circle (mil brain calls a circle a radian), then further brains that into a 1,000 equal parts (1/1,000, called a millradian), where .1 mil will subtend .36" at 100 yards, 1 mil will subtend 3.6" at 100 yards, on up to 10 mil subtends 360" at a 1,000.
My brain believes that it doesn't matter to 99% of shooters cuz they'll just use whatever little ruler is in the scope to measure their miss and make an adjustment for a second round centered hit, take a bullet speed, shoot at distance, develop your dope at distance, input it into your rangefinding brain, and let it spit out your dial ups.

Just tell them the factory screwed up your scope, it has coarse correction per click, about .3 moa per click. They will still love you because you still speak their language, moa ...lol
... and the ladies like guys that are bilingual
