One person shared: "Old folks learning for their own betterment IS NOT SAD PEOPLE." Another wrote: "This is awesome! Let’s stop feeling sorry for elderly people." <img class="wp-image-1263158723 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/06/Screen-Shot-2022-06-17-at-14.52.43-e1655474040154.png" alt="" width="949" height="181" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok.]] <img class="wp-image-1263158722 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/06/Screen-Shot-2022-06-17-at-14.52.31-e1655473992138.png" alt="" width="959" height="185" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: TikTok.]] This isn't the first time social media users found interactions involving old folks adorable. Back around Christmas time, the internet shared a video of an elderly couple who seemed clueless about the fact they were sitting next to Grammy-winning artist Drake. [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1466236293973565445]] The 35-year-old Canadian musician was sitting at the front of the Paycom Center with Mark Robinson to watch the OKC Thunder vs Houston Rockets. The camera started to zoom in on Drake, who pretended he did not see it at first, then the 'One Dance' singer looked over as fans began screaming. Looking up at the screens, the older man looked at Drake and seemed to be confused. He then initiated a conversation with him. Drake is seen replying, smiling, and laughing with them. The rapper appeared to enjoy the interaction so much that he snapped a selfie with the couple and posted it on his Instagram story, alongside the caption: "My new parents". <h6>Featured image credit: imageBROKER / Alamy.</h6>
