People Share The Times Their Grandparents Proved (Once More) They Know Nothing About Modern Technology, And They Are Adorable

That is exactly why these stories about grandparents and their tech mishaps are so charming. The people involved are usually doing their best, even when the results are wildly off target, and that mix of effort and confusion makes every blunder funnier.
From accidental searches to baffling messages, these are the moments that prove grandparents can still surprise everyone. Read on.
