A woman’s festive prank backfires when her grandma misinterprets a fake Christmas card, leading to unexpected hilarity and confusion.
Manchester: So, there’s this woman named Tegan who thought it would be funny to send her grandma a fake Christmas card. Sounds harmless, right? Well, it didn’t go quite as planned.
Tegan posted a video on TikTok of her nan opening the card. She pretended it was from some made-up folks named “Jean and Gordon.” But here’s the kicker—her grandma thought it was from a real June she used to know ages ago!
As her nan read the card, she started reminiscing about June, saying how she used to cut her hair and how her husband had passed away. It was a total mix-up! Tegan’s grandma even critiqued her handwriting, saying it was terrible.
Then, her grandma went on about how June had a knee replacement and was moving back to Manchester. Tegan was just sitting there, trying not to laugh, while her grandma kept going on and on about this fictional character.
It got even funnier when her grandma said, “Jean must have had a stroke; her writing didn’t used to be like this.” Tegan had to admit, “You’re right, it is bad!”
The whole thing blew up on TikTok, with people loving the story. One viewer even said, “The whole story about Jean is making me scream!” Tegan later confessed she didn’t even mention anything about Jean’s dead husband—her grandma just ran with it!
Royal Mail even chimed in, calling it the best video they’d seen. Tegan joked back, asking for some stamps for her grandma since she wasted one on the prank. Another TikTok user said, “Please don’t tell her it was a joke card; she loved it!” But Tegan had to spill the beans before her grandma wasted another stamp. She’s already planning to do it again for future occasions!
