We can say pretty enthusiastically that no matter how long we have been using the Internet ourselves, there's plenty of grandparents out there capable of being every bit as awesome online as us. From adorable and sweet to hilarious and awkward. We need to
If you've ever been "that" child or grandchild that gives the sweet elderly person in your life access to the Internet then you are a hero.
Why? Several reasons:
1. It takes a lot of patience just to get them to understand the basics once they're past a certain age.
2. Every single one of the 12 images you're about to see.
We can say pretty enthusiastically that no matter how long we have been using the Internet ourselves, there's plenty of grandparents out there capable of being every bit as awesome online as us. From adorable and sweet to hilarious and awkward. We need to make sure more old people find their way to social media, seriously.
1. 40 Years of Adorable
Seriously, if there's any major reason to let our grandparents on social media it's so that we can see things precisely like this.
2. Party in Mexico
Ask yourself, "what would I caption photos like this of it were me?" Probably not sweet and wonderful "BFF" captions like grandma was all about.
3. Grandma likes to barter.
Who could resist an offer like that?
4. What's poppin'?
Nah, it's who is snappin' son!
5. Buddies.
He hasn't mastered the selfie but his caregiver came to the rescue.
6. She's putting us all to shame.
If she had a balloon for every descendant of hers she would fly away like she was in the movie Up.
7. What an impact!
Social media gives us a chance to spread how our grandparents impact the lives of everyone around them. I mean, we know our grandparents are the best, but it's SUPER cool to see that everyone else agrees.
8. Grandma knows how to quit in STYLE.
Seriously, couldn't we all be this amazing when we take our highly anticipated exist from a crap job?
9. Forever Young.
We're not crying, there's just, uh, something in our eyes.
10. It's just a prank, bro.
This is way better than some of the pranks I see on social media by the younger generations, okay?
11. We got dog love.
Sometimes love is in the little things.
12. 100 Years of Fabulous!
Seriously, this 100 year old grandma looks better than me and I'm only 30.
The old generation doesn't do new technology so well. But you know what? At least they try!
