my own grandmother. Every time she trends on Twitter, my heart sinks.
I hope she has a great birthday.

The gif is from my favorite Golden Girls scene where they are all participating in a dancing marathon. When all are beginning to accuse each other of tiring, Dorothy asks the bandleader to go a little "uptang" and they start to outdo each other. But nothing is more impressive, shocking, and hilarious, than Rose going solo to do cartwheels and moves fit for a 20-year-old. Might just be my favorite GG episode.

Sadly, only Janis and Pam Dawber are still with us.
