Irish grandma becomes hilariously frustrated trying to solve riddle

If you had a sister half your age when you were six years old, how old would your sister be when you’re 72? That’s the seemingly simple riddle Irishwoman Linda O’Reilly posed to her mother, Joanie, but she simply couldn’t figure it out – much to her annoyance.

Instead of simply subtracting three from 72, the foul-mouthed gran falls into the trap of trying to halve 72 – and can’t accept that she’s wrong.

The hilarious clip has been received more than half a million views at the time of writing and has been shared by nearly 11,000 people. It’s safe to say Joanie’s won herself quite a few fans!
