I just had lunch with my wife at a local McDonalds.  She loves their french fries for some reason.  

While we were trying to eat, there was a large group of old folks in their 70's just whooping it up and being loud as hell.  One guy was laughing so hard he almost choked to death.  WHAT THE HELL?  For the love of all that is holy, it is a McDonalds, you can't have fun there or make any noise.    It is almost like being at the library or adult bookstore.  You can't make noise or eye contact with anyone.  

I hope I have half the energy and zest for life when(and if) I get to that age that these people were showing.  It was refreshing to see some "elderly" people having a good time instead of being the stereotypical quiet senior citizen out in public.    Some people live like they are already dead.  You have to have some fun every now and then.

Dang old people, how dare they?

Up at the Legion on Memorial Day, one of the old timers was standing there with his cane hooked over his wrist, texting like crazy on his flip-phone. I had to do a double-take. He must have been like 80 years old, but he was texting so fast his fingers were a blur!

I remember at a family reunion ages ago, my great uncles (in their 70s) were all hanging around telling "Bruster the Rooster" and other such dirty jokes, drinking beer and generally creating mischief.  It was pretty cool.

I clicked on this thread to ask the same question, then I realized that I might sound like I was being extra sensitive and that might be because I'm getting older.......So I decided I wouldn't post it.

My father is 83 and reminds me of Clint Eastwood in Grand Torino. The older he gets the better his spiel. Hates Obama and crew with every bone in his body, I'm afraid he'll have a heart attack while watching FOX News some day. Sure do love the old man.

I heard Timothy Leary speak years ago.  He said that being high on marijuana was comparable to senility.  



Just for the record, he wasn't advocating senility.

Ah, Seniors at McDonalds.  They tend to prefer the McDonalds that have the indoor playgrounds.

You were lucky you got out of there before they got all rowdy and jumped in the ball pit.

It is all fun and games until Doris screams that she is the QUEEN OF THE BALL PIT and things go hog wild.

I love elderly people and helping them.  They can be downright hilarious with some of the things they say and do.  They are old enough to not give a crap anymore.



My grandmother just asked my sister the other day if she could have my sisters boobs when my sister died.  My grandmother is 88 and my sister said I don't think you will be alive when I am dead.  She said, "oh well, can I have them now, my skins are hanging".

I'm the oldest guy working at the gun store. WAY older. The young whippersnappers there have learned my motto:

Don't fuck with an old man. He doesn't stand much of a chance fighting you, and he has very little left to lose. He'll just kill you.

When i carry my daughters car to the Ford dealer for warranty work, I walk down the street to Hardee's & eat breakfast with the old folks that hang out there every morning. I have to say I have a ball listening to & talking to them. Once one of them saw I was carrying & he just had to see my weapon. Not outside somewhere but there at the table. To shut him up I unloaded it & handed it to him. A VA State Police was in our group & he OK'ed me giving it ti him. The old guy finger fucked it for about 10 minutes. Then the next guy did the same. It went around to all of them, women too. A couple of months later I was there again & 6 told me they had bought one like it & started shooting. 2 were women. At least we got some new gun owners.

Get used to it. I saw somewhere on the internets a map of the US with population predictions broken down by age. Might want to invest in adult diapers and walkers...oh yeah and buy a bigger vehicle too...going out for a drive will be like running a gauntlet.
