Today, my grandfather showed up at my house in a panic. He rushed over, with a gun, because I wasn't answering his texts and he thought something had happened to me. I was asleep. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while having lunch with my grandparents, my grandpa's eyes glazed over, his head fell and he slumped in his chair. I started panicking and almost cried, thinking he was dead. Then he laughed and said "Just kidding. I'm fine." FML
Today, someone knocked on my door. I yelled "Yeah?" while getting up, since it was locked. My grandpa walked in, as I apparently didn't actually lock it. I was naked. FML
Today, my babysitter called to inform me that my grandfather is stalking her. FML
Today, I received a phone call from my 91-year-old grandpa. He was lost driving somewhere in my town. I then spent the next few hours trying to teach him how to send his location until his phone died. FML
Today, I woke up at three in the morning when two cops busted in the door to my apartment and a frantic voice on my cellphone saying "Sir? Sir? Are you all right? Sir?" Turns out I had been having a nightmare and dreamed I called 911. I actually did. FML
Today, my grandpa who is staying with us mistook me for a Japanese soldier and started to hit me with a bat. This is the second night in a row. FML
Today, my phone rang while I was home alone. When I picked up, all I could hear was heavy breathing. Convinced it was one of my friends playing a joke, I said loudly, "Get off the phone, you fucker, and don't call back!" It turned out it was my grandma. She had been having a stroke. FML
Today, a telemarketer called my house phone and asked for my grandpa. We were in the middle of having his wake. FML
Today, my senile grandad saw me and thought I was cutting class, so he pulled his belt off and came after me. While I was trying to get away, his pants fell off and he tripped over them. I'm now getting the blame for "making him have a fall". FML
Today, I told my dad I couldn't make the trip to see him this weekend because I had to work. I surprised him by driving ten hours, and while he was out, I let myself in with my key and hid behind the couch for when he came in. He walked in. I jumped out. I then had to call 911. FML

No better alarm clock than a crazy old guy with a gun!!! You'll be out of your bed and out the door before you can say "Don't shoot me Gramps!"

There's a difference between caring and being irrationally possessive. If my grandfather did this, I'd be upset and truly scared.

Although I agree with what you said, 10, we don't know the whole story It's kinda sweet that the grandpa did this, but at the same time we need more information on why he would do something so rash

Your grandfather doesn't play no games.

that would be very useful should you ever become a hostage in your home for whatever reason

Good thing your significant other wasn't leaving at the time!

this was the first thought that came to my mind. would not want to be in the position of her bf/loved one leaving at that moment (if dat had been the case)

Or anyone at all, including friends. He seems like a veritable man, and guaranteed backup in case shit hits the fan. But yeah, just barging on in at 1 am without any indication that something happened is a bit over the top.

The love is strong with this one.

It sounds like you need to start looking for a home for your grandfather. Probably one involving straight jackets and a cushioned room.

he sounds like a pretty badass grandpa to go over there and be ready to take on anyone messing with you. even if you were just sleeping, at least you got a grandpa who's got your back!
