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 grandma is still pretty sane (for the most part). Last fall, she was hit by a car and broke her ankle pretty badly. She had some sort of plates-and-screws contraption in her leg. One time, she called my mom and said "I have a screw loose and need surgery." Implying that she wanted my mom to take her to the hospital for the surgery.
Before surgery, they had to give my grandma some drugs. Thus, she kept telling my mom that if she died to not let it ruin Christmas and that everyone should have fun anyway. Then, when she was taken away to the operating room, she shouted "See ya later, alligator!"
Needless to say, my grandma not only survived the harmless surgery, she doesn't remember anything she said.
