These days, most people have to be online for some reason or another. There aren't many things left in the world that do not involve the Internet or technology to some degree. Using technology and the Internet is a relatively simple concept for people who have grown up with it, but it is more challenging for those who have not. Being online can be hard for the older generations, but with some patience, they too can succeed at posting on social media sites.

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 can make mistakes and mess up while making a post or leaving a comment. While these failures can be cringeworthy, it is also pretty hilarious to see what some folks manage to post online without even really realizing it. From accidental selfies to oversharing in the comment section of an ad, it is pretty funny to see.

There are hundreds of these failures that have occurred online, and they are shared for people to see and laugh at. At least these individuals are trying their best. Enjoy these 25 photos and screenshots of elders trying their best to use the web.
