How had no one said "break their computers and then call you to fix them"?
My dad gets a virus every month or so. He believes all the pop ups an clicks and clicks and clicks.

The forwarded emails have to be the most annoying. They are so gullible and will believe anything they read online.

Tell me they've been doing this job for 30 years. We're in fricking IT if you've been doing the same job for 30 years you're about 29 years behind a-hole.

YES!! frick meeeee that's aggravating.

And agree with write checks. And they turn so fricking slow when driving. I drive slow on interstates so speed doesn't bother me but their indecisiveness when driving bugs the frick out of me.

In general, they refuse to use or learn new technology.

Small businesses and doctors' offices are the "old people" of the economy.

As a self proclaimed old man, I just laff at all these commments, as each & everyone of you young whippersnappers will be old in time. But I will address one complaint about us being so slow. You will come to realize that at a certain age, your reflexes will gradually go out on you, as will your vision. When you lose both in a combo, your only defense is to go a bit slower. No excuse for the driving in the left lane but I've seen people of all ages doing that, and for yrs. Enjoy your 30's & 40's, as when the big 50 hits, your body will start reacting just like everyone else's.

Wait till you hit 60, then you're in for some real kicks. However, when I think about all you slick young hipsters of today, to quote old Mick Jagger:

You'll still be in the circus when I'm laughing, laughing on my grave.

I'm old and drive about 10 mph over the speed limit and I don't mind driving in the right hand lane so faster drivers can have the left lane, but if a-hole gets on my bumper on a two lane road I slow it down, way down, and take pleasure doing it.


THIS ... and most of the punks that are bitching about our driving seem to forget that these roads were paid for WITH OUR TAXES. THEY ARE OUR ROADS you lil bitches. Annnd we paid for them out of money we WORKED for, not from so called job sitting in a/c hiding behind a computer monitor checking your damned tweeter account.

BTW, nobody has established what constituted "old people".

I am old now. I remember back in the early 60's when color TV was coming out, my grandad was angry at the TV station because they were "not sending me my color". He only had a black and white TV.

As a self proclaimed old man, I just laff at all these commments, ...


You got it right. Most of the crap listed appears to be internally pissed off people just looking for some reason to feel that way.

T.V.s - who should really care what format any other person watches? They/we came from era when a pitiful sounding am radio was all that was available. Leave them da fuk alone. We had no tv until I was 8. I watch my 55" (I think) Sony in hd but really can't see a difference most of the time ... although Frozen was .....

Driving - They paid for the roads I drove on. I paid for the roads you punks are driving on. FUGGOFF!!

Driving slow - our reflexes are slow now and we never know when we are going to have to take evasive action to dodge some lil bitch getting dresses on her way to work or some nerd that has no life outside of their iphone. We would be much safer with no makeup available and phones still on cords.

Checks - they don't trust electronic ... and rightfully so. Getting check info hacked is bad enough ....

Smells - you stink to them/us. ... and the way you dress is atrocious!!

Pay all their bills by mail - REALLY?? I MEAN REALLY?? This bothers you? Get help.

Live - shoot yourself when you reach the predetermined age of "old people".

Pinch my cheeks - face or azz?

fart - but you guys laugh when it happens!

Buy lottery tickets and hold the line up 5 minutes to do so - only young people, mostly trash on the gov't dollar.

Send a ridiculous amount of Obama emails. - ...and you still voted that sumbitch back into office. We should have sent more!

My father in law complains that his social security and other government entitlements just aren't enough. - FRIGGIN HILARIOUS AND PATHETIC AT THE SAME TIME. We just tryin to get our money back. You are paying in for your own retirement. It is already gone. The politicians "borrowed" it years ago and have to vote to refund it in every budget. Good luck getting your money back in the future. They have already spent what YOUR KIDS WILL PAY INTO THE SYSTEM.

take their dentures out and lick the food off - I have never seen this!!

raise this generation of shithead millenials. - This is da troof.

i get really annoyed with the emails i get forwarded from the 65+ crowd. - This is a item that pisses you off?? Really? Are you not familiar with the NEW addition of "delete"? I can delete any email without opening it 3 different ways with 1 or 2 mouse clicks. 1 click after opening. You must be just posting to raise your post count.

Life is too short to get pissed off. But the check writing has to stop. - This contradicts itself. The first sentence is me. Pissing off the youngsters is my goal!!

Things I love about being old: I have the time to piss off young people. Now excuse me while I go to Walmart, fart around in the aisles, and write out a check for a VHS tape.
