In this day and age, everyone kind of has to be online. Pretty much everything we do every day involves technology in some way, shape, or form. This is a simple concept for those who have grown up using the Internet, but for those who have not, it can be a difficult journey. Luckily, there are many youngsters willing to give up their time to help the elders get online, but it isn't without some failures.

Much of the older generation uses the Internet to connect with friends and family. This means that Facebook is a hotspot for all of them. Although Facebook is a relatively simple platform, there are still many mistakes that can be made while using it. Whether it's posting as if they're on Google, oversharing in a public comment, or posting some strange, cryptic photo, there are so many hilarious failures to be seen.

Reddit's /r/oldpeoplefacebook is a subreddit where people share all of the best moments from elders having a hard time online. Here are 26 of them that just make sense.
