My Little Cussing Granny

You know, I've always heard that as people age, some tend to not care anymore about certain things. We'll take my granny for instance. My little granny has been a church-goer for the majority of her life. They now don't attend, but it's only due to the corruptions that they have seen in the church's. So now granny and grandpa keep up with their beliefs at home. Now that said, granny has never really been one to cuss. Mmm mmm. Not her. As far as I can remember, granny never used to cuss as I was growing up, and my grandparents are the ones that raised me. I have only one memory of her uttering a cuss word, and that is when she told me to go and change my shorts cause my ass was hanging out. Ah, good memories!

So anyways, today my granny and I spent the day out eating and shopping. Well on the way home we were talking about poo. Literally. I know, you're welcome for the information. But anypoo, my granny also shares things that she never would utter a word of before. And I'm only mentioning it here, cause well, she happens to share this same info with people she runs into at the grocery store. I know, they are welcome for the information too. So it happens to be that she's a little stopped up and she's not "going" like she should. So, I decided to be a smartass and tell her "sorry to tell you granny, but I think you are full of poop". In which she responded "well I always heard it told as being full of shit". Ya, I just cracked up.

I on the other hand have a tendency to cuss too often....but shhhhh! Don't tell granny!

  1. Oh my goodness! My grandmother did the same thing in her later years. Always letting us know the last time she visited the john and what happened while in there. TMI!!! She's still around but has really bad Alzheimer's. Needless to say, she does not remember those details anymore. Your granny sounds like a hoot.

  2. That's hilarious!
    There is something about elderly people, when they get older they let 'er rip alot with the cussing.
    Sounds like granny needs to let 'er rip in the more traditional sense. :)

  6. I remember the exact moment I first heard my Granny say s***. I must have stood there with my mouth hanging open because she replied. "What? Haven't you ever heard a cuss word before?"

  7. Sadly, my Granny could make a Sailor blush, which probably explains why we only visited her occasionally.
