Social media is there for everybody, but that doesn't mean that everybody should use it.

Check out this hilarious list compiled by Bored Panda to see what we mean. In it you'll find countless examples of older people trying, and failing, to figure out just how this fancy and newfangled social media business works. From dads failing to communicate properly with Siri to grandpas who can't take a joke about their suspiciously fake-looking Metallica tattoos, the people in the list below may have failed at social media, but they definitely won when it came to making us smile.

Don't forget to vote for your favorite, and if you like what you see, click here to see another funny list of older people failing at technology!
