    As long as they don't touch me, but that pretty much goes for everyone.

    They're alright. I mean, I don't hate or like them, I think of them as I think of every other adult, except I see that they're all wrinkly.

    I like listening to them tell stories of past times.

    As Leeza said, I like listening to their stories. My grandmother met and spoke with Gandhi - I never got tired of that one. Of course, they get a bit boring after a while. But they're also a cool alternate source of authority, and just watching them gives me great insight on what I can do in the present to either be like them or avoid certain setbacks they have suffered.

    As long as they stay off the road, I have no quarrel with the elderly.There is this one old guy that I'm always getting into arguments with. He happens to be the previous accountant to the company I work for so we have many disagreements. Not to mention, he's quite scary on the road. He's really the only senior I've ever had issues with. The rest are usually nice to listen to.

    I like old people. I have no reason not to like them.

    MY GOD NO!! Example:
    You have one chocolate bar and an ice cream and you are waiting in the shopping line. an old woman appears there and asks if she may cut a little since she has only one can of milk.
    Well you let her go before you and then there comes an old man with a shoppingcart FULL of stuff and goes near the old lady and they start putting all that stuff trough the cashier and the lady at the cashier says: 122.40€
    Then the old woman opens her wallet, it´s full of 100€ bills BUT she takes all her 5cent, 10 cent, 20 cent and 50 cent coins but won´t touch her 1€ and 2€ coins.. then she one by one puts all those darn small coins, totally worth of 13.20€, to the cashier table,
    After that she´s finally willing to take some bill´s she takes those smallest ones she can find. At this point you are totally losing your temper. the woman fools around 20 more minutes like that and you finally can buy that chocolate bar and an ice cream you were waiting to buy.
    But just becasue that darn old lady, the chocolate bar has started to melt in your ands and the ice cream ain´t in better condition at all. you get pissed and go change them bt when you come back you see a horrible line at the cashier. ALL BECAUSE THAT DARN OLD WOMAN!!


    Teaching of the story: Never EVER let an old lady cut the line ANYWHERE for your own sake

    PS: based on true story. has happened to me...

    I swear they put their elbows in pencil sharpeners!
    On the bus on the wya home froms chool, they nearly always come on at the rush points and just elbow their way through the crowd and it really hurts, it feels like you've been stabbed! Never stand near the elderly who are armed with sticks or their drag along everything holder, they are dangerous.

    I have nothing against them. i like my two grandmoms but i really don't know how to talk to old people.

    But they're okay.

    As long as I'm never one of them, I'm fine.

    We must all respect the elderly.......In addition they are experianced & sometimes funny!Finally we must think ourselves when we will be older,in that way I think we will understand them!
