    A bad night due to elderly foolishness! I'll be blunt and keep this short. I respect elderly folks, but I don't like them for being old. Yeah, I sound like a jerk, but I have legitimate reasons why I detest aging or anything humanely old.
    1. The old get wiser? Bullshit. Experience does not merit wisdom, especially when selfish people get older, the norm is they get more selfish and stubborn.
    2. The old forget, but never forgive. When I argue or debate with old folks, it's like fixing an old TV. Somehow, they conveniently forget the cause of said argument, but they never forget the injustice they feel.
    3. The old are old, they will never learn. When a person ages to a particular range, they degenerate; the learning process is stunt, and principles be damned if theirs aren't.
    Done! My rant is done. I sound illogical here, but hey, it's a rant. Discuss what you will or want, I will never like hypocritical or foolish elders. I would rather die before I become like those decrepit fools, because I know I would be far worse than you average fool.

    It's the generation of this.

    A wise man who grows old remains wise.

    While a fool who grows old remains a fool as well

    You are doing something wrong here...

    you should not generalize the jerk you've met to an entire spectrum of people. Doing so will make you bitter in society. Nature is totally random. There are assholes anywhere you look, elder, young, guys ,gals, kids, black, white, asians.....

    Depends on the person.

    I for one worked at a grocer and mcdonald's, and yes the elderly are fucking annoying at times.
    But not "all" of them are annoying. Got a few older customers that are fun to have with. Easy to talk to and to get along, plus they give tips for a simple help to them.

    But there are old beings that is full of shit and wish they die already. They put themselves in pedestals due to the fucking reason that they have priviledges.

    So all in all, its 50/50.

    There's a old dude who raped his granddaughter and a toddler, and there's my grandpa who told me a story of our great grandfather who once was in a steath team which had a high success in infiltration(which i don't deny why me and my fam are less noticable than others.) And was once a jack-of-all-trades like me. Though he's more of a ladies man than me(the only thing i may not had inherited from him)...

    The older one gets the harder one to learn something new and the easier one to forget. There's a saying that one faces of youth is faces given by their parents but ones faces of old is faces of their own making. It's harder for one to change or accept change as you get older. Some are wiser some are more stubborn.
    I'd say respect them because they're old. Getting into fifty and more is harder than you think.

    No, I don't think I'll become decrepit like the old people you speak off. I'm way too self-aware to fall to those circumstance. I always reflect on what I do and what I say.

    Pat pat you had it tough I suppose.... but the mistake you made in your rant was to include every single old person in the spectrum... but a bad day can make anymore bitter n mad. So I won’t hold it against you ~~


    Take care and rest ?

    My dad is 81, but his health is excellent and his mind is still eons more brilliant than mine. He’s still teaching and researching and creating conferences and traveling to conferences and learning new technologies and writing papers and working all the time. Sure, we don’t exactly get along, but he’s still the most brilliant man I know. (The most brilliant woman was my mother, R.I.P.) I was my mom’s I.T. support. Dad is mine. He also seems to remember practically everyone he’s ever met. I have to run to keep up with his brisk walk.

    yea. maybe too much when he seemingly included all elderly people. but maybe you just didn't experience it first hand. especially in Asia wherein respecting elders is a MUST! doesn't matter if you are right on an argument, people don't give a damn! the moment you argue with an elder you are deemed "disrespectful". and sometimes you just get fed up with all those. I feel you whoever posted this

    but yeah elderly on the family is different, atleast for a part. and yeah most elder still can guide you on the right path and their experiences are superb. atleast most of them

    Hm...
    My mind told me is an everyday thing that happened in youth...
    But my logic told me is this someone that happened to be an immortal? A person who never aged?

    I hope TS save this page for further remembrance that he/she are not allowed to become what he/she said...
