Ryan Reynolds and Chrissy Teigen might be the king and queen of Twitter but even the Royals have to respect their elders. Myrna Tellingheusen has been tweeting since 2015, and her wise quotes perfectly poke fun at the stereotypes surrounding old folks. So far, little is known about Myrna, and her identity is a complete mystery. Some of her followers want to believe the old lady behind all the life advice is real, while others think she's nothing more than a fictional character. In hopes of finding out something about this internet persona, we've invited her for a little chat.
"I exist in a modular home park in Rainbow, California, a sleepy little town just north of San Diego, and just south of Temecula," Myrna told Bored Panda. "My story is long and fascinating. However, the short version of this story is I want to make social media fun."
"There is too much acrimony in the world right now, and people need to better their sense of humor."
But regardless of who's behind the grandma quotes account, it doesn't make Myrna's tweets any less hilarious. And maybe that's the point. Maybe it's your grandma sharing the life tips; maybe it's a thirty-something literature professor that has a knack for humorous quotes. The mysteries behind Myrna only add more charm to her Twitter game. Scroll down to read her funny quotes on holding grudges, hard-boiled eggs, and other serious topics. Oh, and don't forget to upvote your faves.

On behalf of my sister named Joann, who just so happens to enjoy comphy fabric..you are forgiven.
And everybody's sayin' that there's nobody meaner Than the little old lady from Pasadena
Sorry Myrna, sometimes it's not always about trends but about allergies XD
Yes, and i would like the sweater with zebra print cantaloupes, please.
I've never understood decorative soaps. What do you do with them after 30 years.
"Dead Cow" Estates? Was this lost in translation? (LOVE the toaster cozy by the way). My Grandmother had clothing for all of her kitchen appliances and a box for the bread.
And no greater shame than falling to temptation and eating them all in one night...I'm not allowed advent calendars anymore...
Invest one day of your life. Welcome all kids on your doorstep. Let them sing, let them perform. And award them with apples, grapes, tangerines etc. Glow your best smile at the look on their faces. Word will spread.
This is the philosophy I have with "dry clean only". Oh really? Let's see.
That happened with my Dad frequently... Click-click..click-click...click-click.. "Dad..do you have your blinker on again?" "You just won't let me leave that on will you!?!"
And disgusting, too!! Went to deli for potato salad, wanted to know what's San Francisco style? "Oh, that's the sweet one made with Miracle Whip." Gag me with a spoon.
Who uses a magazine as a coaster anyway? It's time to excommunicate her.
Cuz if you can't show up on time for Jesus, then you just shouldn't show up....
From there, it's just a short step away from leaving your outdoor Christmas lights up till June...
😂😂😂😂😂😂 all of these have made my horrendous week feel do-able again. Many thanks!
That is a beautiful and pointed description. Stealing the hell out of it....
I had a meme that said "My Dad would cuss all the time and then say 'excuse my French.' One day the teacher asked if anyone in my class knew a foreign language. I raised my hand."
I dropped it, now it's right side up, or wrong side up for upside down
They're in your store now! They're called Kingsford Charcoal Briquets.
This is hilarious, but egg nog is essentially uncooked cake batter with tons of rum to cut the richness, so I approve.
Don't be so sure. Betty White is still as sharp as a tack.

Myrna Tellighusen has never married. She does not have children, and thus does not have grandchildren. Your fact checker fell asleep on the job.
