he doesn’t want books, he probably just wants you to leave him alone

>>13980372
I think he wants some Magic The Gathering cards anon.

>>13980372
get him some porn magazines with chicks with huge jugs. he doesn't want to read. if he did, he would have read by now. stop pretending you can ever relate to this man. stop trying to swerve out of your god damn lane

>>13980485
This, and also let him tell you his war stories and repeat them a thousand times. Each time he will be happy.

>>13980372
Just ask if you can spend some quality time with him and if he could tel you stories about the good old days. I wish I my grandpas were still around now that I’m in my mid 20s. I wouldn’t stop asking them about their life.

Bro, you wanna suck my grandpa’s dick too, you little tranny?

>>13980531
i don't think i've ever seen such projection in my life.

>>13980372
that's massively fucking gay OP. do that and he'll think you suck cocks for a living, which you do. instead of exhibiting how great you feel after the sex change operation, you can make your grandpa a little happier in his final years by lying about how great your life is and how many chicks you fuck.

>projection
You don’t know what that word means. Second of all, stop projecting your dudebro philosophy of degeneracy on my grandpa.

Storms of Steel.

>>13980600
Butterfly actually says something relevant for once. Am I in the twilight zone?

>>13980612
This post is hilarious, the use of the period for exclamation combined with misnaming the book as “Storms of Steel” really creates quite the clash

The Long Ships

>he thinks strong men don’t read

>>13980764
It is funny to note that 'storms of steel' is actually closer to the original title, but it would be a ridiculous gift.

>>13980372

>>13980464
Yeah, grandparents love being alone all the time. Hate grandkids taking an interest in them especially.

>>13981424
My dad liked this. I think it's quite intellectual, though. If I remember correctly, the eponymous shepherd is an Oxford graduate.

>>13980372
how fucking old are you like 10 if your grandparents are still fucking alive

>>13980372

>poorfag
Honestly OP, your grandfather sounds like a fag.

Do you know how well he can read? It is reasonably common for men of that age to be only semi-literate and just hide it well all their lives

>>13980485
Cringe, this is your brain on coom. Don't listen to this horeshit OP

>>13982017
someone who's 20 could easily have grandparents who are only in their 60s

>>13981405
I wasn’t making a point about translations, in English, the book is titled “Storm of Steel” meaning that the person who posted about it obviously hasn’t read the fucking book, meaning he literally posted it because OP mentioned that his grandfather was in a war and that was the only book anon thought of. That’s the standard we hold posting to on /lit/?

>>13982253
he might just be German

Of course it's a fake butterfly; she could never be this based.

Take him out to lunch or dinner, and spend time with him
