Dentures, hip surgery... she's certainly challenging people's tired stereotypical views of old people by reinforcing people's tired stereotypical views of old people.
Is that Fruity Nutcake, Rappin' Granny in her younger days? If so, if you want to see something really terrible watch her ride the sybian on Howard Stern's show from a few years ago.
A good, positive message but I think Grandma is a bit misleading in her assessment of major joint replacement surgery. She makes getting a new hip seem as easy as colouring your grey.
Her definition of 'living' is synonymous with 'shopping'. Which seems like a pretty empty way to wind down the clock. Plus, if you're poor like most old people you're stuck at home, with nothing to do but watch perky rich retirees on EIT flaunt their cash.
ref: "Dentures, hip surgery... she's certainly challenging people's tired stereotypical views of old people by reinforcing people's tired stereotypical views of old people." I agree. Whenever someone refers to any older person as a granny or grandpa is insulting. Because it is used in the wrong way to label someone as too old. If I was 60 and someone called me grandpa, I would want to kick their teeth in.
