In this day and age, everyone has to be online in some way or another. There isn't much left that doesn't involve technology or the Internet to some degree. While this might be simple for people who have grown up with the Internet, it is not that easy for older folks who have not. There are still many ways for older people to learn how to use the Internet. People can help them and they can succeed… not without some mistakes, though.

Much of the older generation uses the Internet to connect with friends and family, which means that Facebook is a hotspot for all of them. Facebook is a relatively simple site to use, but still, some people manage to make mistakes and mess up their posts and comments. It's pretty hilarious to see what some people manage to post on Facebook. Whether it is a case of an accidental selfie or oversharing in comments, it's all so ridiculous.

Many of these failures have been caught and shared online for all to see and shake their heads at. At least they are trying their best. Enjoy these 25 photos and screenshots of elders trying their best to use the web.
