There's a room with a bed that has blue pillows with pictures of birds on them but I suspect nobody has slept there in many a day. She has one of those stair chairs that's on a track and has a motor. But the room I'm talking about has stairs but no chair so I guess she can't get to it. 9. HJE-Cobra posted:Hey man, if your grandma had floozies in her house, wouldn't you go visit more often? 10.[ Booblord Zagats posted:My grandmother's home was the old plantation house the family had had since the early 1800s. The Gazebo was where the house slaves used to live, but they tore it down and built a gazebo with a BBQ pit attached. The old field slave quarters were eventually turned in to the shed they retrofit to cover the gas tanks (both natural for the house and gasoline for the combines and tractors). The house was only ever cold a few weeks a year, what with being in the swamp, so those months she'd make grampa set up the coal heater in the cellar or we'd never be further than 50ft from a stove or fireplace. 11. quote:Edgar posted: 12.

THREAD RULES (mod approved and enforced) Spanish Manlove posted:Yeah, go ahead. Make a good, concise OP and clearly state the rules, I'll drop by when able to clear out any trolls. I have a lot of hope for this thread.... best of luck to you all. 1. Only grandma stories. Grandpas... lets not even go there. 2. What's in your Grandma's room? What kinds of rooms did she have? These are examples of the kinds of things we will be discussing in this thread 3. NO TROLLING (flame wars, etc.) this is a no brainer but really might as well mention in here so its "written in stone" 4. NO NEGATIVITY related to rule #3 (see above) 5. No personal info on grandma's. Let's all respect our dear grandmothers and refrain from posting any names, adresses, phone numbers or any other incriminating evidence. All photos should have the grandma's eyes or face tastefully blurred out (here's a link to some easy to use photo editing software https://www.google.sn/search?q=photoshop&oq=photoshop&aqs=chrome..69i57.2150j0j8&client=ubuntu&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8) 6. reserved 7. Make suggestions! This is far from a one mane operation! this will take a village....or a wild bunch of grandma friendly goons! I know we got it in us to take this one to the stars. 8. Make grandma proud! HAHA! a star war betamax fucked around with this message at 20:34 on Sep 20, 2016 |

Poodge posted:My grandparents had a really huge attic that had books stacked up all over the place as well as weird antiques and stuff, it was neat. [POSSIBLE INFRACTION] I know you didn't overtly mention your grandpa but wording such as "grandparent" can inadvertantly include him. Please refer to rule number 1 8 track betamax posted:1. Only grandma stories. Grandpas... lets not even go there. Please be more careful in the future and think about removing offending wording from your post (post in OP hall of fame will remain "as is" for historical record) |

Tweezer Reprise posted:my grandparents were cool before they moved to florida :cryingorange: but had a dumb computer that shut down upon hitting the escape key for an utterly unknown reason Ok wow, once again it's great to hear these stories but please refer to RULE #1 (see above) when cafting your posts.... this is another subtle mention of grandpas. I'd like to add this story to the OP HALL OF FAME but not sure we want to continue encouraging this kind of language. But like I said before this is not a one horse show, we are all in this "togheter". So what say YOU, the readers of this thread? Should we be penalizing ALL references to grandpas? Or only overt ones? I'll have franco put up a poll |

My grandma had a room full of unopened model truck boxes and when I went in there a strange bearded man emerged from under the boxes and became very upset about my presence in the box room. Turns out it was an uncle no one talks about who still lives with his mother. |

There's a room with a bed that has blue pillows with pictures of birds on them but I suspect nobody has slept there in many a day. She has one of those stair chairs that's on a track and has a motor. But the room I'm talking about has stairs but no chair so I guess she can't get to it. | |

My grandma was cool but then she married some old guy we hated named Harry. Harry had a "secret" drawer that he said was his church treasurer stuff but it was really full of titty mags and in the soda fridge in the garage he had a bunch of glass vials with instructions how to inject them into your weiner when you need a boner. |
