There’s entirely waaaaay too much awesome in that photo and it all starts with
the olive carpet that moves to the brown paisley drapes with the cream scrim then to the air rattler in the window and HEY it’s a stereo Magnavox TV awww there’s a baby picture WHOA RABID FOX awww another baby picture WTF IS THAT WHITE THING and an odd looking glasstop credenza with an oriental tobacco box and a brass genie lamp and LOOKOUT IT’S A SHARK ASHTRAY!
Maybe that’s not how your eyes strolled around this picture, but it’s still Pure Awesome. I miss my grandparents. They’d never put up with garbage like this, because their garbage had class. Just like yours.

thelit, Tattoo Jim & Rose–
What’s really odd is that I completely glossed over the TV show they were watching when they decided to stop what they were doing, grab the polaroid and take a picture.
My best guess is it was a rerun of Flash Basbo Space Explorer – The Planet of the Mind Gobblers.
