They have the whole week to do shopping, go to the hairdresser or see the doctor.
Why do they go on saturday morning?

You know, I wasn't insinuating we NEEDED this thread...

That said... Old people feel that just because they're older, they deserve some kind of special treatment, and they feel they are due respect just because of their age. Congradulations, you haven't died yet! You want a cookie?

Also, they have this sense of the younger generations being there to serve them. I don't think so, now pack my groceries, grandma.

Old people have all the money.


"But you know nowadays
its the old man
whose got all the money
and the YOUNG MAN
ain't got nothing in the world these days"

if you know what song that is you're either a) old or b) listen to The Who.

On behalf of all dust-farting geezers, to answer any & all questions beginning w/the word *why*:
Just to torque you off- it's all we have to live for, after all. Next week it will be you, though.

Naturally, the thread title is spelled without the proper punctuation. Generation Text strikes again!
