Burnett really missed his chance to use Calm down, grandma

They called him an egghead twice lol

"Egghead neuroscientist grandma" feels like it would disarm me.

What do I say if it's my actual grandma insulting me (she is really harsh with the slurs).

My grandmother was like that. She literally left me the stick my grandfather used to beat my dad his and brothers.

I don’t know. My grandma was jacked. She was a rather imposing figure.

sounds like she needs to calm down a little

Well at least they didn't call him Grandma Burnett. That would be so awkward.
