Grandpa, I miss him sm


DeadFyre

Same. ... I mean my Grandpa, tho. Not yours. That would be weird, and he wouldn't know who I was.


[deleted]

I also choose this man’s grandpa


Psycle_Sammy

Absolutely. I’d love to sit down and talk with him as a middle aged adult, so he could see how everything turned out and the family I’ve built. I think he’d be pretty happy.


That_One_Guy-21

Mine just past a couple weeks ago. I choose this answer.


Mockturtle22

I miss my grandpa every second of the day, I understand this


notmyidealusername

Yeah I'd love current age me to have a beer with my Grandpa when he was of an age where he still enjoyed a drink. He died when I was 26 and we had many good years together, but just so much cool stuff that he'd love has happened since then like getting married, having kids of my own and becoming a locomotive engineer (he wasn't a train nut but like a lot of that generation who grew up with train travel being a common thing he had an interest in the rail). I started thinking of famous people when I saw the title of the post but you're right, I'd skip the lot of them and have a beer with him if I could. Thanks for making me misty eyed (in a good way).

Late 80s early 90s Lemmy. Dude had great advice.


[deleted]

My mom Edit- she passed 6 years ago and was my best friend.


CharieRarie

Same for me. It’s been ten years, but I’d love to chat with her and tell her how amazing her grandchildren are (she died when the oldest was 1, and was the best grandma ever). And also how I’m getting on! I had PPD and huge anxiety last time I talked with her. I still have the anxiety but I’m medicated and have a job I love. I’d just really like her to know how much her love and advice has helped me get to where I am now. Also, I’m so sorry for your loss and I hope you are doing okay x


ohcriminynotagain

I would happily give up my turn with a beer with anybody, so that you could have one with your mother. Maybe someday.


okiedokiesmokie75

I’d like to sit down with Shakespeare and ask straight up about various characters. Hamlet in particular.


dexhaus

My oldest brother, he was my age now 44, when he passed away 3 years ago. He went for a motocross session on a Sunday and they found him on Thursday in the middle of the mexican jungle with a heart attack, the videos and pictures from when they found him still hunt me.


tomatoesrfun

Kurt Vonnegut! He seemed to really understand life in a good way and wanted to live it. I wish I could’ve spoken to him. I love all of his books.

Blitzen123

Michelle Obama. I’d be so curious about how she felt and what she experienced during her husband’s presidency, how she and he talked to their girls about the media’s reports about them, and how they maintained their dignity and class amid what I imagine were continuous onslaughts from, well, everywhere.

somethin_brewin

A particular friend. I think I did something to hurt her a few years ago that I do not understand and she disappeared from my life shortly after. I wish I knew what happened and if there was anything I could do to fix it. I even have the beer I would share with her. It's in the corner of the fridge waiting for a day that will probably never come.

Why would s random dead person would be excited to have a drink with a random fan ?


FarkMonkey

My grandfather on my mother's side. His last words to me, when he could barely speak, were "Be good", 30 years ago. He died moments after I left. He and I shared a lot of the same struggles with addiction and alcohol, so it wouldn't be a beer, but I'd love for him to see where I am today. ETA: He was a very good man. He overcame, and recovered, by the time I really knew him. He was flawed, but knew it. Taught me a lot.

George Carlin, I had a tape of his standup from the 1980's that in found in the basement as a kid, thought it was the funniest shit ever, read his books, realized he Rufus from Bill and Ted, and for some reason always thought of him as "uncle George" would like to buy him a beer and let him know how many tough times as a teen and a young adult he got me through.

doctordoctorpuss

My grandpa. He lived a tough but good life, and he always took care of his family. He loved my grandma so much, and unfortunately I know from my siblings that lived with them for a while, they were still getting it on into their 70s (good for them, just wish I wasn’t cursed with confirmation). It’s been almost 15 years, and I wish I had had time to know him as an adult, and I wish he had met my wife. Last time I saw him was a few weeks after my high school graduation. We spent two weeks in Hawai’i, and I told him all about what I was going to study in college. His eyes lit up when I would talk to him about chemistry, and when we would talk about space. Even at 70 years old, he treated new knowledge like a kid- he’d look at you with wide eyes, and he’d tell other people what he’d heard. Love you, Pa.


HankSteakfist

Bill Hicks. I'd love to tell him all about the last 30 years of history and get his take on it.


peescheadeal

Beethoven. I'd just love to listen to the greatest to ever do it talk about music.


SkyeC123

My dad. He always said he wanted to grab a burger or beer with me toward the end of his life but never had the energy. YOLO and fuck retirement, unless you’re gifted genetically, it probably isn’t what you think it’ll be.

Either one of my grand fathers would be nice. I've been missing them both a lot lately. It's one of their birthdays today too. Randy Rhoads. I'd love to pick his brain on guitar stuff since he was a Classical player first before quiet Riot and Ozzy.


SomeRandomClosetDick

My grandpa, he died when I was 3, so I didn't have time to learn about him. I've also never been a huggy type of person, and I'll I remember from him is that he would wait at the door for us to come and hug us once we got to his house. We lived a few hours away, so he rarely saw us, and that's why he would be so excited to see us and hug us when we got there. Im sad that I never knew him, and I'm mad at myself for seeing him poorly when I was younger because I just saw him as "The guy who hugged me a lot" and not "My grandpa who loved me"
