"No tengo abuela"

Question

"No tengo abuela". In what context is this used in Spain? I understand the literal meaning off course!! jeje jeje

Thank you todos

Answer 1

It's a saying usually said about someone else when they are blowing their own trumpet, meaning that they don't have a grandma to say good things about them so they have to do it themselves. Of course if you're a brutally honest kind of person you could also say it about yourself je je
