22 Completely Befuddled Grandparents Who Need To Be Kept Off Of The Internet At All Costs

It’s a strange feeling when grandparents get on the internet and social media, it’s like we’ve ended up in some kind of an alternate reality. When let loose on the internet, Grandparents can cause all kinds of problems, especially on Facebook.

Thankfully, Grandparents have no idea what to do on Facebook and the results are pretty hilarious. Whether it’s sassy comments or unintentional statuses, we love having Grandparents on Facebook, even though they probably shouldn’t be…

So, next time your Grandparents joke about having Facebook, maybe you should set them up an account and watch the chaos unfold.

1.) Someone give Rose a recipe for creamed corn

Rose seems to think that a status on Facebook is some kind of search engine. Sadly, that is not the case, I’m not sure what’s with the accidental selfie either, Rose really has got herself into a mess. I feel bad, we’ve all been there, someone tell her how to make creamed corn!

2.) Gary might have cursed Bill…

Tragic but hilarious I love how Gary even said “alive and kicking” but Bill really isn’t…Gary might have just jinxed Bill’s death.

3.) That’s a…unique way to use Facebook

Oh dear, how much time must this granny waste switching from Facebook on her phone and Facebook on her computer? Does she have different friends on each account? Facebook does always ask you to log in again on your phone though which did throw me off to begin with, thankfully family were on hand to help me!

4.) You tell her, Geraldine

Geraldine definitely doesn’t know who Rihanna is but this is hilarious! Great life advice though, what did Rihanna ever do to YOU, Tara?!

5.) Chuck shouldn’t use the speech-to-text function

If I’m honest, I’m surprised this grandad even knows how to use the speech-to-text function…I still don’t know how to use it. Unfortunately, he never even got it to say Chuck but he posted it anyway, I love how little he cares!

6.) I agree coconut oil IS the solution to everything

This is the funniest thing ever, I love how she thought it was such a helpful response, just rub coconut oil over your phone, that’ll log you out! Grandparents are the best at being unintentionally hilarious.

7.) Fair enough…

At least this grandma is honest! I love how serious she was though…at least she isn’t in denial.

8.) This grandparent doesn’t know what the backspace key is…

This could be the single greatest thing I have ever seen. Grandparents should rule the internet, imagine how many confusing things that make no sense there would be! The backspace key certainly is difficult to find sometimes though.

9.) This grandparent reacts to Stephen Hawkin’s death…

I’m not too sure what was running through this grandparent’s head when they wrote this. I mean, if they are religious I guess it kind of makes sense…if Stephen Hawking went to heaven this grandparent might have seen that as working out well for him…

10.) Alison needed to share her problem

I assume she meant how not why…why is much funnier though, I’m not sure Walmart can help with your online shopping cravings though Alison. Online shopping is far too high tech for me, I like to stick to the old fashioned way of going in the shop!

11.) This grandad took this Vice article personally

I love how defensive this grandad got in response to this Vice article. I hope his friends aren’t actually avoiding him because that would be really sad…

12.) The most important Facebook status of all time

(Image Credit: nopenotamish / Via reddit.com)

I think this could be the best Facebook status ever. This grandma really wanted to make an impact with this one and it is incredibly hard-hitting. I wonder what it means…

13.) Grandparent’s really don’t know what Google is, do they?

(Image Credit: oh-rosie-oh-girl / Via reddit.com)

This grandad really isn’t too sure how to search the internet for things. I hope he got his John Lennon songs in the end though. Sometimes it’s easier just to ask on Facebook, as soon as I Google anything I just get more confused!

14.) This Facebook group was too much for one grandma

This is just so pure and innocent that I actually feel sorry for this grandma. I hope she can sleep at night again now that she has left this Facebook group, I’m sure she was very missed. Thankfully, I’ve figured out how to mute my phone now so I can stay in Facebook groups, winning!

15.) Bill shares only the important articles

Who wouldn’t want to read a Wikipedia article about barbecue sauce if they had some spare time? I love how Bill actually enjoyed the article enough to share, what barbecue sauce secrets does it reveal?!

16.) This grandma has the best Facebook conversations

(Image Credit: begeberg / Via reddit.com)

This lovely grandma likes to keep in touch with her Nephew by asking him to virtually wave at her. This is just so wholesome and sweet!

17.) Joan really didn’t know what she had 6-8 weeks left until…

(Image Credit: jediwillsmith / Via reddit.com)

This is very mysterious and just a little bit ominous…what was Joan counting down for? Why does she no longer know?! The aliens definitely took her…Or it was too long ago for her to remember, which I can definitely relate to, anything that happened more than a week ago is forgotten.

18.) That just might be the wrong background for this status…

(Image Credit: pikadrew / Via reddit.com)

This is incredibly sad news but why on Earth did this grandma use the laughing emojis as her status background? People won’t know if she’s being serious or not…

19.) Best Facebook bio ever.

This Facebook bio is just incredible. This grandma was clearly very offended by that delivery charge and now it has become her life motto. How dare Sears let her down like that!

20.) Wrong Zac I think…

(Image Credit: giantsfan36 / Via reddit.com)

This grandma just wanted to wish her grandson happy birthday but Zac Efron ended up receiving the birthday wishes instead! Facebook does just randomly tag people though when you start typing their name, this has happened to me too, just not with Zac Efron though.

21.) Grandpa thought he would say happy birthday and deliver bad news simultaneously

(Image Credit: Sgibbons46 / Via reddit.com)

Oh, dear…he could have delivered the bad news maybe the day after his birthday or even separately but not in the same status!

22.) That’s one hell of a misspelling…

(Image Credit: surrahh15 / Via reddit.com)

This grandma was just trying to spell Clematis but it went about as wrong as it could go for her. Oh well, I’m sure no one noticed…

Grandparents, you’ve got to love them and their attempts to use Facebook! Has your grandparent got Facebook or are you a grandparent with Facebook? Let us know in the comments! AAx
