This is a question Old People Talk Bollocks

"My Gran calls the remote control The Wisher" writes Kim, "and LA Law, Lah Law." Do you know any old people? Are they as inventive or creatively befuddled as this?

This is a QotW answer My mom's mom is very self conscience(spl?) about all things personal,
and extremely more so about bodily functions. So one night her son, my uncle, is over to the house for dinner. Gran lives with us so it's a rather big dinner with the three kids, me included, Mom, Uncle, Gran, and mom's boy friend. My Uncle thought the best thing to do in this wholesome family situation, is to put a little device in gran's purse, which she has on the back of her chair. This device makes noises that sound like someone farting. It does this on command by remote. So here we are, eating away, chit chatting about this and that when all of the sudden we hear *poot*. My gran gets this look on her face like one of us has dogs crawling out of our nose. She appologizes as my uncle chides her for being gross. Then it happens again. This time the kids chide her as she turns bright red and apologises profusely. Then again. She keeps on apologising as the noises keep emminating from her purse and we all are laughing because she can't tell that she isn't actually making the sounds herself. We all had a good laugh and she never found out about the little device.

She is a wonderful old woman and I love her dearly. Nicest lady you ever met, but kind of losing it now.

[edit] this really isn't about anything she said, some much as something funny that happened to her. I could delete it but I think it's funny anyways, so I won't.
