Today, I saw my grandfather kick my dog, who is a 6-pound chihuahua, across the room. When I confronted him about it, he screamed at me for having "too much sex during the apocalypse" and "invading my brain with your pancakes." This man is my legal guardian for 3 more years. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it's been 3 months since my dog scratched my 9 year old granddaughter after she walked over and repeatedly kicked him. My daughter has disowned me and won't let me see my own grandchildren until I have my companion of 11 years "destroyed". FML
Today, no one warned me that my grandfather was slipping into dementia. I proudly brought my new baby to meet him, only for him to burst into hysterical tears that I was a teenage whore, who’s now brought shame to the family. I'm 30 and married, but he still tried to hit me with his cane. FML
Today, my grandpa was visiting. My neighbors started blasting out rap music, as they've done nearly 24/7 for months, telling me to fuck off when I complain. He went over and screamed he'd gut them like fish if they didn't pipe down. They did. He's 68 and still more intimidating than me. FML
Today, I laughed at my grandma's chihuahua poodle mix, as it barked at me entering the house. "What are you going to do, nibble me to death?" is apparently enough to make it jump and bite me. I needed five stitches. FML
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
Today, I woke up to my drunk great grandfather peeing on my cat and thinking it was absolutely hysterical. This isn't the first time and he just moved in with me for the next six weeks. FML
Today, I went downstairs to get a drink and overheard my grandparents talking about me. They spent a good 15 minutes double-team attacking me for my failings as a human being, mainly me not being married with children yet. I'm barely 20. FML
Today, while visiting my grandparents, I used one of their blankets to keep warm. Later, I saw their dog getting busy with said blanket. When my grandparents saw my look of horror, they explained that he has "sexual relations" with the blanket every night. Thanks for telling me, guys. FML
Today, my grandparents visited. My grandpa kept getting off the couch and walking around to "stretch his legs." He kept kicking out my computer's network cable and messing up my game, smirking each time he did it. When I complained, my mom told me to shut up and show some respect. FML
Today, my grandmother threatened to write me out of her will because I refused to believe that dogs can perform the Heimlich Manoeuvre. FML

He doesn't have to be. Call CPS, and tell them you no longer feel safe. If you can film his behavior to get some evidence, it would help.

What I really what to know is what is going on with the pancakes?

Get a pit bull next time. If Grandpa kicks that dog, he'll lose his pancakes.

Call DHS and report for yourself

Even using your phone to record audio seems sufficient.

I hate that you’re in that kinda environment and that to many people think you deserve it.

No he won’t, since he is clearly too insane to function.

OP, I know this sounds crazy, but sit down and have a talk with him, just about life or how the day is going. Not only is it a pandemic, but there is an election going on. lot of reasons to fear the unknown. older people feel more scared, they just have no idea to express that. all their life they've been taught to not show that type of vulnerability. have some tea or a hamburger and ask about stuff, anything, good ole days, etc

Is this normal for him or is it out of character? If it's normal, sorry for you but if it's out of character he needs to see a doctor as there may be something really wrong. A friend's mother went through a change of personality, she had been a caring mother but started getting mean. Even she could see it and took herself to get checked out. They found a tumour. A series of mini strokes changed my Grandfather's behaviour.

Call the cops. Explain your grandfather seems to not be aware of reality and he's abusing animals. They should sort things out from there, and they won't hesitate to get you out of the way since he 'seems crazy'.
