Old Man Yells at Cloud

[Yar]

I'm visiting my grandparents this week. I love them a lot but man, they can be strange.

My grandma seems to be trying to pick a fight with me. She tries to argue with me when I don't even say anything. Other times she doesn't seem to be hearing what I say.
"Would you like a drink?"
"No, I'm fine."
"Would you like some pop?"
"...No."
"What about some milk?"
"I'm not thirsty."
*Grandma sighs heavily in frustration as if I've angered her*

Discuss old people. They are confusing.

I thought this was about a senior citizen getting pissed at Jiro.

I'm disappointed.

I thought this was about a senior citizen getting pissed at Jiro.

I'm disappointed.

Thats actually what I thought as well. How sad

[Timekeeper]

'Cause we all were thinking it


Also, could it be that old people see it as being impolite for you to refuse their hospitality? (because you're then making them act impolitely by not giving you a drink)

[Freya]

Old people drive me insane. They never understand me, drive slow and are always just loitering around places in the middle of the day!

My Nona was born and raised in Italy, her way of showing affection tends to be feeding and looking after people, even at 90. I humour her gladly even if I'm not hungry/thirsty because I'm an awesome grandson.

I love old people, they buy me things. *snip* not appropriate, Julian. ~ Psy

[Remon]

Old people are great. Just always answer with a yes.

[Timekeeper]

Umm, NCG?

[Pheesh]

O_O Dude, some things stay out of the old person thread...and preferably out of the whole forum.

If someone offers you a drink when you don't want one, ask for water, and watch them prepare it so you're sure they aren't slipping you something.

lol @ timekeeper xD

i personaly have nothing with my grandma, becaus she only cares about the youngest 3 kids of the family >.<

my grandpa is fine :3 hes a real spanjard and for him it doesnt mather how old you are. he is verry open and caring about everyone.

My boyfriend's dad loves arguing. The problem is we've learned to just ignore him, so he just argues at us now. Once we were eating dinner and he was like "TELL ME COLONEL SANDERS IS FROM KENTUCKY" and my boyfriend's grandpa was like "No he's from...Indiana? I don't know." "Just tell me Colonel Sanders is from Kentucky!" "Alright, Colonel Sanders is from Kentucky" "NO HE'S NOT *hour long rant about how Colonel Sanders is not from Kentucky*"


Old people are so weeeeeird.

My grandparents are three-quarters all dead, you insensitive clod!

actually, that's not the sad part. The sad part is that my remaining grandmother appears to be going paranoid/senile/alzheimers. It's kinda scary, and I don't think my parents are really talking to her currently. UP TO ME TO PATCH THE RIFT?! idk we'll see

[Miriel]

I try to be really nice to old people, even the ones who are grumpy and mean. Being old has to suck hard, you gotta be a little extra understanding. Besides, I have lovely grandparents who are super sweet and it terrifies me every time I see them that I probably don't have long with them.
