Ageism

Is it possible there are some real wrinklies on here (after Old Wrinkly's departure), should over 50s be open ended age wise, or limited to say 69 years old?

The intermediates seem under-represented.

Nothing wrong with being old and wrinkly Spitty, that's only natural, it's the cranky old and wrinklies that worry me.

Re: Ageism

I'm 67 but I'm still dreaming of being a Rolling Stone. I think the young people of today are (mostly) bloody awesome. I don't want to be one of them..been there done that. I'm not jealous of them - just proud of them. I still go crazy beating the steering wheel when I'm listening to good music in the car. When I hear those comfortable, boring and entitled "senior citizens" in affluent first world countries - Australia well and truly included - whine endlessly about everything when they have very little to complain about. Whinge about how everything was better in "their day" but don't give a damn about anybody except themselves..I feel like saying But it's not your day now. You've had your day. It's theirs now...But I don't I just wait for the noise to pass. I, for one am happy the age I am. I don't feel "Old" and I feel lucky that I have what I have and that I've had what I did have.I know I'm never going to be a Rolling Stone. But I'm not too old to have my own little "play and giggle" blues band. And that's enough.

Yeah but botox won't stop you being "wrinkly" on the inside.

Age I reckon is definitely subjective. Often though it's made obvious by those who ask "should over 50s be open ended age wise, or limited to say 69 years old?"
