48 Times Elderly People Proved That They’re The Funniest (New Pics)
Interview With Expert
We tend to underestimate older people when, in reality, they have a wealth of knowledge and experience that makes them wiser and more resourceful than the younger generations. Besides, a lot of them are past the age of caring what anyone else thinks about them, which often results in funny situations.
Speaking of… Many such instances await you in the list below, collected by our Bored Panda team. The sense of humor of these older folks truly aged like fine wine and proves that age is really just a state of mind.
While you're scrolling through, don't forget to check out a conversation with Dr. Marianne Matzo, a certified advanced nurse practitioner specializing in gerontology and founder of a non-profit organization and podcast, Everyone Dies, who kindly agreed to talk with us more about ageism and how we can overcome it.

This Dummy Sat In My Grandmother's Living Room Throughout My Whole Childhood And It Always Terrified Me. Now I Have Kids, Time To Pass On The Trauma
BookFanatic 1 year ago
It was an ancestor's portrait for our family. "Uncle George" hung at the top of our grandparents' staircase in a rather dark corner. One of my cousins, in particular, was terrified of it and would always run past it at top speed. Now I have it. Cousins came to visit one day and the scared one said "OMFG it's f*****g Uncle George." I'm leaving it to him in my will.

So The Twins Will Have An April Fools Surprise When They Wake Up In The Morning. Grandma Does Something Every Year To Get Them
One time it was a donut box of veggies. And some brown E’s in a tin instead of Brownies another time.
Well, this one is this years! Hehe!!
What are some fun April Fool’s jokes you’ve done or heard of before that are funny?
I have friends coming for dinner so I have to think of something to do to them.

I hacked my friend's computer in grad school to make random noises with each click of the mouse and function. The best part was it was in a shared open space with classes going on, but everyone knew about it. Everyone laughed while the chicken noises and trumpet sounds were going off. The easiest and best one though was the following year when I simply asked him how his car smelled (even though I didn't do anything). He claimed it stunk and proceeded to tear it needlessly apart, insisting I did something.
