The crazy old bat with the camera

[Cracker]

I don't think I could bring myself to actually be mean to an elderly person.

My dad was old when I was born. I grew up around the greatest generation of people who did amazing things.

Younger people are shit.

[Lady Cop]

the greatest generation indeed

me too Cracker. my heart goes out to the people who were our parents, who went through WWll. i always feel tenderness towards them.


except when thay are meaner than a snake, which you do run into sometimes! especially down in God's waiting room, florida.

[crash]

I love some of those hard old bastards. A kind word is rare and well deserved. Carry that soapbox on their back everywhere and will unleash it in a heartbeat. Scared to show a glimpse of tenderness in case it might crack that armour.

I'm practicing to be one of them...

Nobody does guilt like a bitter, middle-aged divorcee.

You should know since you just described yourself.

Dammit Ramsey, I think she was poking fun at herself there for a minute.

[Cracker]

Don't explain, user. It cheapens Mock for everyone.

[ramseycat]

Cracker, you can't be much cheaper. We all know you couldn't buy class if it were on sale at Walmart.

[Maggot]

Gods waiting room.

Florida really. Truly. Is. And every single one of them has a divers license and drives a tank. Or worse. An RV.

No shit, you guys are making me feel bad for thinking that crazy old neighbor is a creep.
GEEZUS!




There is nothing worse than having creepy neighbors that think they are your best friends. Ugh. You can't get away from them! It's like they are sleeping in the next room.

The senior citizens are out of fucking control here, they drive me crazy.

The other day I'm sitting at a red light and this old guy pulls up next to me and asks if I know where Lowes home improvement is. Well Lowes is right next to us so I point over there and the guy says thanks and goes right through the red light almost causing a huge accident. I don't even think he was aware of it, he just went on his merry way to Lowes.

Same thing with my aunt and uncle. They're in their late 70s and decide to retire to sunny Fl from MA and what's the first thing they do when they get here, run straight through the garage door.

[Lady Cop]

Sally is so right...they are completely oblivious to their surroundings, are probably on all kinds of meds, have had their left turn signal on since they left home this morning, half blind, cause major deadly traffic accidents and keep on driving down the road. usually 35 MPH in the fast lane.

when behind them going 125 MPH code 3 lights and sirens wailing, you have to SCREAM at them through outside speaker to make them move the fuck over.

once, in a supermarket parking lot, better known as bumper cars, some old fuck almost ran over me while backing up. i asked her if she knew what those rear view mirrors were for, and she snarled "i should have run you over". vicious old bat.

oh they are a menace down there, but they comprise 85% of the tax base and they know it.

[Lady Cop]

and on the other side of that coin, i get all misty-eyed when i see an elderly couple together because it reminds me my parents should be alive and enjoying old age. :(

[Duchess]

I think they are darling when I see them holding hands or helping each other. It warms my cold, black heart.

[IMaDick]

[Lady Cop]

nice Dick.
when my Dad died i was there and looked at his hands, thinking of the lifetime of hard work, strength, accomplishment all shown in those dear worn and tired hands.

[Duchess]

Sometimes you're such a sweetie, love.
