Why The Grandma Friend Is Better Than The Mom Friend
Theodysseyonline.com

We've all heard of the mom friend. She might nag at you for your grades, but you love her anyways. However, not everyone is lucky enough to have a grandma friend. A grandma friend? You heard me right. A grandma friend. The grandma friend is the more laid back mom friend that still loves you to death but she isn't nearly as bossy. The grandma friend gets you excited for the holidays and helps you escape your daily problems but wont cross into topics that you just aren't ready to talk about yet (but you'll tell her anyways because grandma knows best). We all need a grandma friend. This is why.

1. She always bakes for you.

Whenever you come over, even for a short bit, the grandma friend always has some kind of baked good either in the oven or ready for you to eat.

2. She never lets you go hungry.

In addition to having something sweet, she might have something salty. The grandma friend never wants you to leave her home and feel like you need to go eat after. She wants your belly full and your heart happy.

3. She encourages you to do "bad" things.

You'll hear her say "you're only young once" every once in a while. Your mom friend might tell you why what you want to do is a bad idea, but the grandma friend will remind you of all the awesome memories you're going to have when you're older.

4. She always gives you the best homemade gifts.

The grandma friend most likely knows how to crochet or knit or some other skill that will leave you with a nice, homemade sentiment. She loves to give gifts and wants them personal as can be.

5. The grandma friend gives the best advice.

Although your grandma friend is probably not much older than you, she seems to be experienced in the ways of the world. She has most likely has been through a lot and in turn has a lot of wisdom to share with you.

6. She is always cleaning.

Even though her room might be a mess, the common areas of her apartment would never been seen dirty. The grandma friend wants a nice, clean space for all of her chickens to hang out and be merry.

7. She will never tell your secrets.

Whatever you tell grandma, stays with grandma. She will always have your back.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
