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?

my nan is somewhat mental, and always has beenher most common daft thing is to call me, my brother, and my cousins, with other family members names
so far today (since 5:30pm) i have been called, jaime (brother), julian (cousin), michael (uncle), daniel (cousin), and Brian (cousin)
she cant stand racism, and often moans if i tell a joke with a vague racial slur, but in the next breath says "you shouldn't be rude about the darkies, they have powers"
my grandad's no better, he has a habit of spending every day in the pub, and can only remember me & my cousins by the order we were born in (i.e. i'm number 7, my brother is number 8) and will often introduce us to his pub buddies as such
it worries me to think that some of these things may be the result of a hereditary condition of some sort
