I want to grow up to be just like her.
Have you said that about your own grandmother? Or maybe just an older woman you admire? I have. I know some of the coolest seniors, and I would be happy to grow up to be just like them.
Whether they are serious and in charge, or having the time of their lives, we have a list of 75 grandmas who have proved they are cool. Sometimes they know it, and sometimes they have no clue.
Scroll through these images and see if there is anyone you would like to grow up to be!
1. Granny has skilz!
I’m amazed! This grandma is 84 and has never used a tablet or iPad. A new iPad with Artrage installed produced this in 30 minutes. With no help or tutoring. Granny rocks!
2. And now he’s gone.
Clearly this isn’t a current event. But granny is hysterical for making these. I wonder if she has a parting gift for him.
3. What a rebel.
Rules, rules, rules. If you live in a nursing home, there are rules. But sometimes, you just have to break a few… just because.
4. She has spoken.
Everyone has a right to make their choices in life. This granny is standing behind the choice of her granddaughter.
5. Hmm, I get what she is saying.
However, there are much better ways to spend your money. Why not take awesome trips and send your greedy family pics of that? Or buy a new car and take a pic of that?
6. Maxine!
I love the Maxine comics. And it looks like we may have found who they are based on. They just need to get her a dog.
7. I’ve never even done that.
Guess what granny is doing here? She is 96 and playing a game of virtual reality for the first time. I wonder what is going on behind the scenes!
8. I wish this was a GIF.
The still shot of granny sliding down the banister is fun. Wouldn’t an actual video of it been 1,000 times better?
9. Hey! Is this allowed?
I guess when it’s your 99th birthday you get some special treatment. Like being able to sip a martini while at the gym.
10. Funny and sad.
Funny that this old woman is wearing brass knuckles on the train. Sad that this old woman feels she needs to wear brass knuckles on the train.
11. BFFs
This is beautiful. How many brides think to—or even can—include their grandmothers in their wedding party?
12. Happy new year!
Granny took a New Year’s cruise. This was found on her camera. The first rule of granny’s cruise was, “What happened on the cruise stayed on the cruise.”
13. She’s still got it.
Look at this badass granny proving she still has what it takes at the gym. Look at her pull off this double backflip. You’ll have to watch closely!
14. Just visiting.
Was Snoop Dogg hanging with the girls, or were the girls hanging with Snoop? I’d love to know the story here!
15. Facebook profile
I wonder who her influence was. This 83 year old grandma decided to make herself a new profile, and this is it.
16. I have a question.
First, are you allowed to backseat drive when the Queen is driving? And second, why does her passenger look like she’s having a stroke?
17. Now, you listen to me.
Ah, the scolding voice of moms and grandmas. And apparently you don’t need to be a relation to hear it. You don’t even need to be human. This pelican bit granny and got a scolding for it. It looks suitably chastened.
18. Bad granny!
This had to be deliberate. Granny did the decorations for Christmas dinner. And decided the cocktail glasses needed a little something more.
19. I feel the same.
Anyone else who is completely over the hipster movement? Good for granny for speaking out about it.
20. Rock on!
I wonder if she is a lifetime player of if this is a new skill she is trying. Either way, granny rocks.
21. Don’t mess with granny.
I bet granny has seen some things in life. She doesn’t have the innocence of the young and is dead serious about her gun.
22. Once upon a time.
In a land far, far away, I was still a virgin. And I had the shirt to prove it. Now I’m a granny, and the shirt is out of date.
23. Yep, I can’t do this.
This is granny doing the splits at after her 80th birthday party. I wonder how much she had to drink and if she was able to get back up without assistance.
24. Aww!
And that would hurt! At 83, granny got her first tattoo, and it is so sweet.
25. Grease, revisited.
I think this is a scene from Grease. Someone’s granny just got Photoshop and is having some fun. This is the first thing she made. It’s only a little disturbing, right?
26. Don’t challenge grandma.
If you jokingly tell you grandma you want 100 things from the Dollar Store for Christmas, be prepared. Because depending on the grandma, you just might get what you asked for.
27. Grandma at 83.
I wouldn’t jump out of an airplane now. I imagine it takes some serious brass balls to do it when you’re 83.
28. So she says.
Grandma is 86, and she’s smoking weed for the first time. At least that’s her story.
29. You are not getting past.
This is incredibly sad. This 106-year-old Armenian woman is protecting her home with an AK-47 in 1990. She should have her great grandchildren on her lap not a gun.
30. Oh, yes.
There are certainly days that I would love to be wearing this shirt. But you know, she has the wrong face for that. She needs to look meaner.
31. Smart lady!
This grandma wasn’t showing any favorites. What a smart idea to take two shirts so that she could rep both of her grandchildren.
32. Hangin’ in the garage.
There’s granny, 90 years old and in the garage playing beer pong. And she looks like she knows what she’s doing.
33. Proud granny.
I wonder if that’s the hospital where her granddaughter works. And how embarrassed her granddaughter might be by that picture.
34. Twinning.
They are 97 years old. Grandmother and great aunt. I wonder if they just took a swig or downed the entire bottles.
35. She only looks conservative.
She’s a 70-year-old grandmother in a knee length skirt and pumps, dropping her grandson off at school. I wonder if she realizes what’s on her umbrella.
36. Oh, that will fool them.
Granny feels she’s taking precautions. Somehow I don’t think this will fool anybody.
37. Back in the day…
They used to say granny was a wild child. I guess some things never change.
38. Grandma’s 80th birthday party.
It looks like they’ve covered all their bases. On the table I see a margarita and I see a baby bottle. I wonder if the baby bottles for the stripper.
39. Status.
Grandma just set up her Facebook profile. I think she did a better job a choosing a status then I did back in the day.
