There’s just something about grandpas that makes them the best. First of all, they’ve seen the good and the bad and managed to pull through. Second, they know some handy facts about stuff you never knew existed. Lastly, no matter their age, they are generally good-hearted and good-humored, if not a tad bit aloof.
However, even with this much wisdom, they sometimes can't figure out modern-day happenings, creating a fertile ground for some hilarious grandpa jokes. Treat these grandad jokes like dad jokes, except a tad bit wiser.
In this collection of grandpa’s funnies, you will surely see grandfathers battling their number one nemesis, social media. Even the most well-rounded paw-paw somehow struggles to get a grasp of it. On the other hand, maybe they don’t want to. Either way, it creates perfect situations for some silly jokes. These funny grandpa jokes also touch on the moments when older people tend to overshare (we don't want to hear about the best fake teeth, Grandpa).
Prepare for silly grandad jokes that make you cringe, shake your head, and laugh. Upvote the jokes that you like best, and tell us some of your grandpa’s jokes. Don’t forget to share this article with your grandfather so that he gets a couple more ideas.
