I wish. It was a rather seedy place, so it is not that surprising. And that wasn't even the worst of it. The staff ate more than they ever sold, and even leftovers from the costumers. Ah, I was young and needed money. :cool:

As for the question the OP posed, I don't really have any examples. I don't really know enough old people, but if I had to choose I would say that old people are too religious.
Apparently italics hurt anus' eyes, so I'll stop doing it just for your pleasure.
Yeah, I guess I would agree that a lot of old people are very religious. Some would say there is no such thing as "too" religious, but it's really annoying if you aren't religious yourself.
Shlup, your whole family is awesome and I want to meet them all before I die.
KC, that's pretty much how Cross Plains is. There are annoying old people everywhere, getting in the way of the fast paced youngsters. Sometimes I want to run over them with shopping carts.
Old people are simply awesome.

Tits isn't something you should be posting. Even perfect ones like that.
Ohmygod, hahahaha.
Anyone I've ever met born 1956 or earlier has been incredibly close-minded know-it-alls. FYI, just because you're old does not mean you're all knowing. Being wise comes in part, from knowing that you don't know everything, so stfu and knit something for me.
As I said people I've met. I've most likely never met your grandmother.
I am super jealous of your grandma.Quote:

When they try to push something onto you, just tell them that you'll think about it. If they have one thing to teach us, it's that there is a lot of time left for us to think about things that they tell us.
I like old people and their conversations when I am relaxing and have nothing much to do. When I'm trying to get something done, it's hard to get a word in, let alone to tell them that I have things I need to do so I have to go. But it's hard to hate them for that... and luckily the stuff they're talking about is actually kinda interesting most of the time.
The only old people I know or talk to are my grandparents on my mothers side. They are incredible people and have imparted so much knowledge to me and my brother as we've grown. We spent two weeks there every year growing up until I turned about 18, and they're some of the best memories I have.
I hope I can see them again before they pass, because they are both in their 80s, but both still live together in a house and don't need a care worker or anything. I'd be lucky to end up like them when I'm older.
My aunt kind of gets on my nerves with dog related stuff. She volunteers at shelters and is an animal rights activist. She's one that will call a groomer abusive for lightly quicking a toenail. I try as hard as I can to not quick a nail but accidents do happen :roll2
Also I work next to a bingo hall. They get out on Mondays about the same time I'm done with work. Lets just say that I wait until EVERYONE from the hall is gone before I leave or try to scramble out of there early..
I'm always kind of worried when I'm around really old people. I sometimes think "what if he or she dies right now, what do I do?".
Anyway, I don't really have that problem with the old people in my own family being all overbearing. Additionally, even old people over here are pretty secular. The last time I heard one of my grandmas trying to be all religious with me was when i was like 10 years old, and I haven't heard my mother's parents mention religion even once.
I'm also dead set on not becoming and old conservative fart. Whatever holographic game systems they get when I grow old, I want to play it.
Lol Starlet, I would hate that.
Mirage, you made me lawl so freaking hard. xDDD
