This one time my dumb ass grandpa took out his stupid colloidal silver machine and shocked a silver dollar in a glass of water and made me drink it, then asked "see how much better you feel now?"

My family was very into snake oil shit and conspiracy theories. https://twitter.com/Popehat/status/1265385158942703616">https://twitter.com/Popehat/s...

K, I& #39;m gonna just add to this thread a bunch of crazy shit my recently deceased grandpa got up to in his 90 years.

He was mostly a dick, and all of his kids except one daughter mostly hated everything about him.

He& #39;s always been into kooky healthcare stuff like colloidal silver, essential oils, you name it. He was super weird about hydration. He& #39;d drink his own pee and tell everyone his insides were clean because of it.

This one time we were working on a construction job, and he asked me "have you noticed a beefy smell about me lately" and I was like "yeah, do you ever shower?" And he responded maybe once a week or so. To be fair, he smelled like if an animal ate a ton of beef jerky and got sick

One time when we were hunting he started in on some stupid religious crap, saying that I needed to follow him to the yucatan peninsula to find joseph Smith& #39;s bastard great grandchild who was to usher in the messiah. When I told him I wasnt interested, he said "we& #39;re not united"
