60+ is old? I've seen people in better shape at 60 than they were at 20. 60+ is late middle age these days, 70+ is old, 90+ is so common it's cliché. 100+? What, you want a medal or something?Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

I work at a retirement home, and now I love old people.
They're so easy to talk to and attentive and respectful.

Actually, I rather like old people. Much more interesting than the vast majority of college students near my age.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

The problem I have with most old people is that the feel entitled to stuff, namely, my money. **** you, you should have saved on your own - that's what I say.Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/DaveDaDouche

No problems here unless they want to cut you off in line.
It's everywhere like that. Wherever there's a line they are: Would you be so kind my lad to allow an old lady/man as meself to go first blah blah blah.
Supermarkets, banks, public services everywhere the same.
two things:
_You are on pension. You have nowhere to go and nothing to do. I'm working to pay your wage. I have to be in a million places and I'm tired and in a hurry all the time. You have NOTHING to do and you are getting paid by me. So unless there's no emergency, please don't play that old card with me so you can get out of the place faster and go drink coffee.
_You are so strong despite being 70 or 80 that you could propably put up a good fight. Why ON earth are you complaining?
That's all.
Respect for the elders unless they dont deserve it in which case **** off

oh and the buses and trains of course. Around here it is considered a mortal sin to be sited when an elderly person stands. You have to stand up and offer your sit otherwise you're a badly raised brat.
They will start giving you those glares and not only them but most of the bus untill you get up. Talk about psychological warfare.
I have no problem in offering my sit, actually I feel obliged in a good way to do so. unless they look like former gestapo collaborators or fascists in which case there's no way in hell. However things are better now. Since I'm not 15 years old anymore there's always younger people than me that have to offer their sits before me. aging has its positives...
all in all we're a pretty good society now that i think about itLast edited by Bereta_Eder; September 22, 2003, 23:18.Comment

I came here to hear young people from everywhere, and occasionnally to discuss with them. I am not desappointed.
