Old people

[nick1985]

They always hold up the damn lines at stores!!!!


They take forever to put their goods on the counter to be scanned, they are always making dumbass small talk with the clerk who obviously doesnt give a shit, they take a year to pay(always cash, or worse a check), then they hang around for another minute after they paid to finish up their dumb small talk and hold up the line.


Thanks for listening.

And most of the time thats not any faster. I always get stuck behind some dolt that has no idea how it works.

It's not too bad in the stores, it's when they are behind the wheel....

 

[spidey07]

And just think, you'll be one of them as well.

 

[soulcougher73]

You too shall someday be old.

Christ, dont even get me started. I have a 40 mile commute each way, and much of it is 1 lane highway thats so busy its impossible to pass anyone. One old person can singlehandly make my 45 minute commute into an hour.

At least my old ass will know what a debit card is.

At least my old ass will know what a debt card is.

By the time you're old, the young kids will be making fun of you about something you don't understand or feel comfortable with. I've never quite understood old people bashing.

The world went and got itself in a big damn hurry.

Don't be too hard on them.

Pity their proximity to death.

(unless they are an old driver who's skills have deteriorated. those fuckers piss me off)

I never understood old people that drive slow. If I was old and about to croak I would drive fast as hell wherever I go. I could die at any second, so I would want to make sure I get to my destination before I die.

 

[Spineshank]

I just hate when they have to dump all their change on the counter and count it out in pennies.

You will but no one will care. Because in the future people will have implanted chips into their hand with all banking information and personal identification. You on the other hand, coming from the dinosaur age, will hand your debit card to the cashier, who will in turn pull out a box under the counter to pull out a debit card reader and ask you to punch in your PIN number onto a dusty keypad. You will hear a collective sigh behind you from people behind you, irritated at your lack of touch with current technology and the precious seconds you are wasting them.

I love old people. They make me realize that someday, I can stop this stupid ass rat race and just be normal, taking my time to talk to a cashier, drive places, spend my money, etc. But the best part of it all is knowing that you're pissing someone off while doing it and they can't do shit about it!

All the cool kids know it is a debit card.

wtf grandpa, credit cards take foreeeeeeeeeever to swipe and process.

everyone knows that embedded rfid chips are the only way to shop. thanks for making me wait in line behind you

The catch is that credit cards are not new. Old people should know how to use them by now, but they still like to pay with cash and count pennies. Credit cards were very popular in the 1960s, and I remember an episode of I Dream of Jeannie where she was going crazy with a credit card because she thought it was free money.

Old people are not stupid. They're just assholes. They know how to use a credit card, they might know how to use a debit card, but they choose to hold up the line because they want to make the world feel as horrible as they do. They also drive like retards because they want everyone to be as scared as they feel when they see black people or young people on the TV.

I never understood old people that drive slow. If I was old and about to croak I would drive fast as hell wherever I go. I could die at any second, so I would want to make sure I get to my destination before I die.

That and it doesn't matter if you crash and die. When you're 20, you have your whole life ahead of you. When you're 30, you have a wife and kids that need you around. When you're 80, fuck it. Anything goes. I'll drive 100 mph everywhere with no seat belt in a car with no air bags.

This.

I'm looking forward to being a crotchety eccentric old bastard. You can say whatever you want and your kids / grand kids pass it off as "granddad's eccentricity".

Edit: Plus you have the time (and hopefully the finances) to do whatever you want. Okay, your mental faculties may not be the way they were and tyour time left on this plane of existence is drawing nearer, but the benefits are quite good.
