grandparents

Ryan Kober's story about a visit to the doc's office with his grandpa and great uncle is just the kind of wholesome throwback we never grow tired of. The quick and hilarious account of what the two old dudes say and do while their hearing aids are being fixed up gave us a good chuckle. Hearing yourself using the bathroom is apparently an exciting thing when you haven't heard it in a while. 

We'll never cease to be amazed by the audacity of these choosing beggars. They continue to spring forward with irrational and ridiculous demands. 

Not only was grandpa able to execute a successful wholesome revenge, but he also might've managed to save some lives in the process. If you enjoyed this sweet tale of revenge, check out another revenge with this property manager who ended up being terrible, and got canned in the process.

You haven't really been in love until you've eaten banana bread that you loathe, for years, purely out of love. This grandpa is nothing short of a legend. 

The longer the wait, the more satisfying the petty revenge. This one was years in the making. That being said, we can only imagine the look on the grandparents' faces when they heard that electric organ actually working. At least the kid was overjoyed. 

This dad asked the people of Reddit if he was in the wrong for asking his daughter to lie to her grandparents about her black boyfriend. Many folks seem to think that he's in fact a huge ass, and definitely overstepped with that kind of request. 

Sure, we'd all love to own a house by now, but things have changed in the last few decades. You just can't find a nice place in a good neighborhood for 3 quarters, a loaf of bread and a handshake. If your parents have no concept of how things actually work anymore and are completely full of BS, you may find these relatable, or at least really, really annoying. For the funniest thing we've seen this week, check out this facebook group where millennials pretend to be baby boomers.

That loaf of bread ended up being way more invaluable than anyone could've known. This sounds like a bit of a panicked nightmarish situation with the good old grandparents! 

Sometimes a well-timed inappropriate thing said at a funeral can actually improve the mood and make the experience more meaningful. Other times it's family members almost coming to blows over who gets their grandpa's estate. Pretty wide swing of the pendulum, for sure. For crazy wedding stories, check this out.

Old people are trying their best to catch up to with the times and use Facebook correctly. Progress is not without its speed bumps.

Using social media requires a little bit of grace. We forgive them for not having the hang of the internet.

The world is changing faster than they can deal, but they're trying to keep up. Also my feed isn't loading, I think I've been hacked.

Old people facebook. The birthplace of elaborate spelling errors and inappropriate discussions in the comments section.

They eat blood and onions. They sleep with revolvers and critique the merits ground beef. They are our grandfathers and we love them or else.
