Today, I'm spending time with my granny, with whom I'm supposed to live with for a few weeks. I've noticed that she repeats the last word of every sentence I say, and now I'm wondering how it's possible for me to now be so horrible that I want to punch a sweet 92-year-old lady in the head. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my grandmother hates me. So much so that I've become a rotten, desperate, and overall evil person with no thoughts and considerations towards other people. My family doesn't know this, but I can never undo the damage she has done to me since birth (as she raised me). I only care about my own well-being, nothing else. FML
Today, after my mom moved our senile grandma in with us rather than find her a care home, she wakes up screaming at least once a night, and usually screams for a good few minutes. Then this morning she started throwing plates at me because she thought I was a criminal. It's only been four days. FML
Today, my psycho grandma yelled at me for being an "immature brat" by not offering to wash the dishes after dinner. I reminded her that when I offered last time, she raged at me for being "condescending." She responded by faking a heart attack and getting me indefinitely grounded. FML
Today, I decided to spend a few days at my grandma's house, to help her clean the place up a bit. So far, she's given me a "no masturbating under my roof" talk, used multiple racist slurs, and yelled "QUIET DOWN!" when I so much as sneezed in the next room. FML
Today, it's been one week since my demented grandma babysat my five-year-old daughter while my husband took me to a fancy restaurant. Now she's taken to screaming and calling me a "damn commie" whenever I discipline or say no to her. FML
Today, I was confiding in my grandma about how lonely I am and how everything in my life seems to be falling apart. While I was in mid-sentence, she rolled her eyes and made a show of removing her hearing aid. FML
Today, I had a fight with my grandma again with whom I've been living for four years due to college hostel being below par. She blamed me for destroying her kitchen equipment by extensively cooking, especially at night. I've never placed a foot inside her kitchen since the beginning. FML
Today, my grandmother told me to say "sofa king retarded" really fast. Not only did it take me several attempts to figure out what it meant, I'm now grounded by my mother for having a foul mouth. FML
Today, I decided to be nice and pay a visit to my grandma. We ended up playing Scrabble. In between passing wind that smelled like rotting eggs, she kept playing the filthiest words she could, and yelled at me whenever I checked to see if they were in the Scrabble dictionary. FML
Today, just like every day for the past two weeks, my mother has told me just how much she doesn't want me to move out. I, once again, have had to remind her that she isn't the one I'm trying to get away from. I'm not a fan of being repeatedly smacked with a coffee mug by my 78-year-old grandma. FML

You've got to love the "with whom I have to live with". People trying to sound smarter than they are amuses me.

88 - Please tell me you're kidding. You think someone who says "with whom I'm supposed to live with" has a good handle on the English language?

Some people actually do that. It's a condition I think. But when they listen they say the last word or few words of the sentence to make sure they get it all. I understand how it could be frustrating. Please don't punch your granny though. That would not be cool. :(

Yes. Yes, you are. You are horrible for thinking of punching her in the head, when a light open-handed slap in the face with get the point across without getting you a murder rap. If you are going to commit elder abuse, be smart about it. ;)

Old our young, family, friend our enemy, dealing with people is a dynamic process, and they WILL get on your nerves, and vice versa, from time to time . Being able to admit it is a sign of a healthy relationship. So, no, don't feel horrible, just don't punch her in the head. Try saying something, although at 92 years old theres really no chance she'll be able to make any changes.

The only reason I say your life sucks is because you have some serious mental problem. She's 92! Maybe that's how she pays attention to what you say. You should never want to hurt your granny or any old person. Most can't help what they do.

She has echolalia - that's a neuropsychological condition - its annoying but you have to learn to live with it. It's not like she's doing it on purpose.

She's 92 years old, give the woman a break.

Just wait, no matter how old you are, she's going to expect you home and in bed by 9pm or earlier. No matter what she says or does though, remember, she may not have much longer and even the things that make you want to throw HER through a wall will be things you'll miss later on. (Been there, done that, would do almost anything to have her back)
