Grandpa is strange, critical, unpredictable, and quite ignorant at times. He means well and seems pretty jovial and kind, however he has a damaged childhood and was severly abused by his father who walked out on him and his mother when he was 12. He sets his TV only on the CCTV channel, which he enjoys watching, infuriating Greg as he cannot watch any "real" television shows at his grandpa's retirement home. He makes a dish called watercress salad, which is an uncooked salad with vinegar and green beans. Greg and Rodrick thinks it is disgusting; their grandpa seems to not care. He loves to play a game called [[Gutbusters]] as well, and forces Greg and Rodrick to play; Greg always wins because his Grandpa thinks the nonsensical jokes are funny and he also beats Rodrick because he laughs on purpose because he keeps his mouth filled with milk when Greg's turn comes. In '''''The Ugly Truth''''', it is revealed that he smoked when no one is looking. He might of been told on by Greg, as he has never been seen smoking since. In Old School, he said he accidentally invited all women from his dating site when he tried to invite only one to watch a movie. He also suffers from PTSD, which is triggered whenever a telephone rings and whenever Rowley yells ZOO WEE MAMA!
