She’s not clueless, she’s hilarious and knows how to not take herself too seriously! She knew exactly what she was doing. Upvote for her simply because she knows the difference between they’re, their, and there.

If you can go to bingo or anywhere else with your grandparents. DO IT! Its advice constantly given bc most of us (no matter how much time we had) end up wishing we had so much more with them. My grandparents have all been gone 16-18years and I literally think about them every single day still

I understand the confusion in the first photo! Look at the name of the group. Pretty poor choice for a make up group name.

As an older person struggling with tech. It took me a course and TWO books for dummies to find the "home" button on an iPad, and I can't find the "on" button on my wife's phone even though it's the same make and model as mine. What was I saying again?

These "older people" posts about technological ignorance focus on people who couldn't figure this stuff out when they were young, either. As for the rest of us, we were there when this stuff was being rolled out, back in the days when the only way to transmit and print alphanumeric information was the telegraph and the teletype, and a lot of us were involved in the creation and constant upgrading of the devices that almost everyone uses today, and that includes every electronic component inside of each and every one of those devices. I know plenty of older people who can barely use a flip phone, much less an Android or Apple phone, but I also know more than a few younger people who have the same issue. Some people, regardless of age, will always have great difficulty with technology.

My dad recently started using WhatsApp... At the end of every video call he makes to me, we go through the same thing "how do I turn the boomin' thing off?" "Dad, tap the screen... You see that red icon? Tap that. No, you've just paused the video. The red icon". I can usually hear him muttering at the phone at the same time. I could just turn it off from my phone, but it's funny...
