Does your grandfather spend his free time disrupting international terrorist organizations?

No?

Then I'm sorry to tell you, but your grandpa isn't as cool as Th3Raptor, a man who claims that he's a retired vet, that he's a grandfather, and that he's behind the disruption of web pages frequented by Al Qaeda sympathizers.

I don't know if this is helpful or harmful, in the long run -- we can gather plenty of intel from these forums, and I don't think these disruptions will keep the sympathizers from communicating with each other. But still, for a grandpa to sit down one day and decide "You know what? I'm going to go screw with Al Qaeda." is pretty awesome in my book.

My grandparents are DEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAD!

So he's not fighting terrorism, then?

Yeah, because senior citizens are known for their technical skills. Bet he's calling his grandkids every five minutes. "Now how do I post on a forum? I wants to sabotage these terrorists." "For fuck's sake, granddad, you're on a Modern Warfare messageboard!"

I saw Faux News and correctly assumed there would be no accurate information involved.

Necronic disagrees that my grandparents are dead? I'd think I'd be the one who could say.

You may be wondering why I disagreed with you Dave. You may be asking yourself what point there would be in such an action, because you know that your father's parents have passed.

No Dave, I am your father.

Just because you banged his mom doesn't make you his dad.

Yep, because generalized assumptions about old people are a great way to determine accuracy. It's a scientific fact that no one born before 1980 is capable of understanding computers.

More like a generalized assumption about the accuracy of Fox News.

Wait... so you're claiming Sarah Palin wasn't saying that she was considering running for president? That image is from a year ago.

I think the average old person can't use a computer and can't use things operated by a computer such as a Redbox. But I am very biased in that opinion.

The image is of Tina Fey.

Who could blame Fox, that was the best impersonation in the history of SNL.

True, it's not like they're trying to present factual information.

So you two have something in common, then? Yes, I'm still mad with you.

Also, personally I think old people are the pits. Well, little old ladies actually. When they're not complaining about how rude the young people of today are, they're being quite horrendous themselves. On a personal level, I once helped a little old lady pick up a heavy sixpack from in a grocery store. The lady was tiny and hunched, and I saw she had trouble getting the sixpack down. So I did the gentlemanly thing and helped it in her grocery cart. And the thanks I got?

"Ooh, if only you were a lot skinnier you would be soooo healthy."

Yeah, thanks... You're not my doctor, my mother or my girlfriend, so piss off with your unsolicited advice.

Another little old lady, who actually lives in the vicinity, is even more of a pain in the ass. I've met her on the street twice, and both times she has just barged in at me into my personal space, patted me on my belly and said something about having a bun in the oven. Once she did that when my mother was in my company. Jesus Christ, I swear if she tries that for the third time, I'll break her arm and shove it someplace that hasn't seen any action since the fifties.

Little old ladies... f*ck 'em all.

Dude, not everyone in the world like to get their food and their medication from the same place

Though I guess Taco Bell would make a decent profit if they sold anti-diarrheals...

Those haven't seen use for a while, so I was wondering if that is where you were planning on shoving her arm.

Man this has gotten into a real grampa hatin' discussion. Meh, some old people can hack and some can't. No skin of my skin.

Your bedroom?

I rated her post funny. So no. Just couldn't think of the right response is all.

Judging by the way it's going for the nuts? Silver Jelly.

How can people be questioning the ability of the elderly to manage technology on a forum run by Dave.

Hey, from what I've seen, old farts are getting into the tech stuff. Google Gaming Grandmas. Two of the most avid gamers I ever knew were a 60+ lesbian couple I shared a duplex with in Boston. They had all the awesome games and a nice rig. The best random instance I went on in WoW was led by someone who claimed to be be elderly.
