50 Slick Grandparents You Need To Keep An Eye On
50 Slick Grandparents You Need To Keep An Eye On
September 1st, 2020
Grandparents are treasure troves of knowledge. They’ve seen it all, including world wars, cold wars, and ongoing global pandemics.
The elderly are often stereotyped as gentle, brittle sweethearts or unchangeable old dogs incapable of learning new tricks. Well, I know a few older dogs (human and canine) who’d take offense to that thought.
Truthfully, grandparents are capable of anything anyone else is, if not more, given their experience and acquired skills.
Want to see some proof? These scheming grandparents are full of surprises. Check out 50 of the most surprising grandparents around. Their hilarious, ridiculous shenanigans will leave you in awe.
1. Gambling Addiction
Wow, Grandpa! Does Grandpa have a gambling addiction? Maybe rolling the dice can stave off the itch… It’s as ridiculous as it is innovative.
2. Robots
He doesn’t trust robots. Nor does he trust automation. He’s been following it around, examining and studying it. He might as well just use a regular vacuum at this point.
3. Space rock
Harmless pranks can be hilarious. I hope no one ever puts this in their mouth. The “decorative rock” certainly looks… interesting. Like a multi-colored space rock or something.
4. Happy Birthday, Dennis
Meet Dennis the cat. Today’s an important day. It’s Dennis’s birthday. Happy Birthday, Dennis – love Grandma.
5. Leo
A lot of people like Leo. Grandma certainly does. Leo’s been helping her cope with her husband’s passing. Her photoshop skills honestly aren’t even that bad, all things considered.
6. Italian sausage
This is meat from the motherland. Meat from the motherland is the best meat in the land. But seriously, we could all use a trip to Italy right about now. The ongoing global pandemic makes it a little difficult…
7. Rice cooker
Just so you know, putting electronics in rice doesn’t actually help, apparently. Instead, displace the water with rubbing alcohol before drying. And definitely, definitely do not cook electronics in rice. Unfortunately, Grandpa didn’t know any better…
8. iBoard
Oh no! It actually does look like a cutting board, especially if it’s just sitting in the kitchen. Hopefully the tablet’s undamaged! That food looks pretty good, too.
9. Ready with the rice
Thanks, Grandma! She’s always a step ahead. With that said, rice has been shown to not actually help the drying process. Either way, Grandma’s always prepared. And she loves you to death.
10. Hearing aids
Sometimes, grandparents just keep it real. Selective hearing’s a real thing. In this case, grandpa turns off his hearing aid. I mean, give him a break. Young children aren’t exactly masters of their craft!
11. Pickle jar
They talk about the cookie jar. But tightening the pickle jar’s a tactical decision. These are late marriage tactics. Maybe it helps them sort out their disagreements.
12. No smooth moves
That’s pretty blunt. She certainly doesn’t beat around the bush. At least give him a chance! Grandma already has her mind made up.
13. Selfies
Grandparents are accused of being especially slow when it comes to adopting new technology. Moving from flip phones to smartphones isn’t always a quick, seamless transition. I really like his enthusiasm. He just wants to see his friends.
14. Butter container
That butter’s not going to preserve itself. This is actually pretty innovative. We should always be seeking safe, healthy ways to reuse preexisiting packaging materials. I’m sure it protects the butter well enough.
15. Funyuns
Funyuns are a favorite American snack. Are they literally onion chips with sour cream? No, but they’re a pretty close alternative. What are your favorite kind of chips?
16. 69
Obviously, Grandma went for a whole yin yang, duality theme. She did a pretty good job with the cats. But the white and black 6 and 9 throw everything off. I’m sure you’re aware of what this means. Grandma’s not.
17. Wonder Woman
Have no fear, Wonder Woman is here. Turns out, Wonder Woman was your grandma the entire time. She’s actually rocking that costume pretty hard. Halloween seems taken care of.
18. Grandma’s response
Don’t say too much. Grandma’s a good listener, but she has her limits. Keep your stories to the point. Otherwise, Grandma might let you know when she’s had enough…
19. Labels
I’m always down for some dope labels. This looks like a combination of lights and fans. Grandma has an interesting sense of humor. Hey, Russia can be pretty cold.
20. Nightgown
Sometimes it gets cold. Grandma doesn’t have much clothing for men. Hey, gowns are better than nothing! It looks pretty comfy.
21. Tweety Bird
This reddit user thinks she looks like the Grandma from Tweety Bird. Do you agree? Her canary yellow bags are fitting. What do you think of Tweety?
22. She’s single
This is so wholesome. I guess her granddaughter is single. She’s letting the world know! Grandma looks proud.
23. Tree lover
That’s a pretty decorative umbrella. I wonder if she even knows… I’m sure the kids definitely don’t. She’s just really into trees.
24. Locked in the bathroom
Some walls need to be broken. Apparently, Grandpa broke out of this one using just a toilet seat. That’s one bad grandpa. It honestly does look pretty claustrophobic in there.
25. Watering the plants
Grandpa’s a simple man. He sees something broken, he tries to fix it. More people should adopt this mentality. These plants are absolutely appreciative of his efforts.
26. Pelican
Grandma’s used to getting her way. She won’t stand for any of this pelican’s back talk. But pelicans are pretty tough. I wonder if this one’s tough enough for Grandma.
27. Grandma’s edits
A lot of great art definitely doesn’t hold back. Some people take offense to certain topics and words. This is the clean version. Edited by Grandma.
28. Grandma bachelor party
This looks like a bachelor party! The tables in the foreground hint at a recent, classic American meal. Is that a Christmas tree in the background? Grandma looks pleased.
29. Upper body Grandpa
Well, Grandpa certainly has exceptional upper body strength. This is actually quite amazing. And in Crocs, too. He might as well be 30.
30. Puzzle spactula
Say what you will, but this is truly innovative. A spatula is the perfect tool to move puzzle sections. I might actually have to start doing this. Thanks, Grandma.
31. Medieval times
Sometimes you gotta spar with your friends. He looks both awesome and ridiculous. He also has a very cute horse. I wonder if he’s a Game of Thrones fan.
32. Scooter shenanigans
These two peas in a pod are young at heart. That’s a pretty cool scooter. They’re having a fantastic time. His banana helmet marks a comical contrast to Grandma’s bird.
33. Peppermints
Peppermints are usually for eating. Or at least tossing in your mouth and sucking. I imagine the water smells a little pepperminty. But wouldn’t they only last one single flush?…
34. Batman
Batman’s been retired for years. But he’s recently returned from the shadows. Every now and then, you can spot him. But seriously, Grandpa’s ridiculous.
35. Need for Speed
Grandpa treats life like a Need for Speed game. Usually, rear view mirrors will say “OBJECTS IN MIRROR ARE CLOSER THAN THEY APPEAR.” Well, Grandpa’s incredibly competitive. To him, if you’re not first, you’re last.
36. Hawaii
Hawaii’s a beautiful place. There’s always a beach nearby. Plus, there are tons of sea turtles! Somehow, Grandma’s not too enthused.
37. Colonel Sanders
Grandpa legitimately looks like Colonel Sanders. The gray socks make it even more hilarious. This is the perfect Halloween costume. KFC, you have a new spokesman.
38. Paper money
Lots of people are going cashless these days. Cards and cryptocurrency are making paper bills less necessary. Grandpa certainly isn’t wrong! Some people prefer cash.
39. Home phone
Speed dial is where it’s at. Grandma added some tasteful portraits of her friends to her home phone buttons. That’s even more reason to use speed dial! Now she knows exactly whether she’s calling Jill or Jane.
40. Sharpie magic
Sharpies can be incredibly useful. They have the unique ability to fix obscure problems. But not this time, Grandpa. I mean, maybe light brown would have worked.
41. Rudolph’s human cousin
We all know about Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Grandma’s a pretty giving person. This is adorable. Rudolph would approve.
42. Ridiculous Christmas sweaters
Terrible Christmas sweaters and vests are practically an institution. Grandma’s been dabbling in the art for almost a century. Her grandson doesn’t shy away from wonderful Christmas patterns either. They’re two peas in a pod.
43. Washed change
You can accumulate coins in your pockets over time. Sometimes they clatter in the dryer. Grandma holds a lot of coins! Here’s a nice little reward for cleaning the machine. Thanks, Grandma.
44. Swordsman
Cigar? Check. Robe? Check. Sword? Check. Small dog peaking out of a shirt? Check. This might truly be the most badass grandpa ever.
45. String and lace
Well, that’s certainly one way to look at it… String and lace could be a nice replacement for the birds and the bees. Grandson looks frightened. I’m not sure this sign’s painting the whole picture.
46. Teeth
Grandma just got some new teeth. Unfortunately, the lollipop’s already done its damage. Lollipops are like lickable magnets. It was still worth it.
47. Marijuana music
Everyone remembers their first time high. Grandma decided to throw on some tunes. She’s feeling this one out. Does anybody else think she looks like Tony Soprano’s mother?
48. Pedicure
A free pedicure sounds good to me. Grandma likes to pamper herself. She’s already made it this far. Her grandson’s a good sport.
49. Pizza party
Lots of people love the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Lots of people love pizza. Nobody’s ever too old for anything, especially pizza. Shoutout pizza parties. Thanks, Grandma.
50. Flume
Busch Gardens is a pretty fun place. But Grandma doesn’t think so. She’s unfazed. She’s seriously seen it all.
