The Advantages of being Old.

Hi

You have your own place.

Mortgage free, no landlord to worry about.

No rent to pay.

You do not have to go to School or work.

No Boss or Parents to answer to.

Your day is your own, nobody is telling you what to do.

Sex is so much better, absolutely no rush and you can spend your time on pleasuring your partner without worrying about them getting Pregnant.

It is a great place to be.

Re: The Advantages of being Old.

An advantage of being...not old, but older!.......

The occasional realisation that you know an awful lot of stuff.

Over the last few months, I've been a 'customer' at a training college beauty salon, where the trainees are 17-19. You suddenly realise how inexperienced most people of that age are, with regard to life skills, professionalism, etc. and it drums it home just how much more experienced you are!

So it's true!........With age does come wisdom!


I once had a ten-year-old ask me how come I knew EVERYTHING? Well, of course I explained that I didn't know everything, but I a) could hazard a guess based on other knowledge, or b) knew how to try and find out.
Bless!

Re: The Advantages of being Old.

You can just stop at the top of an escalator for no reason
You can tell the person at the till in Tesco, your life story
You can compare medications with others
You can show complete strangers your previous operation scars
You can ride on your motability scooter with complete disregard to others
You can drive everywhere at 27 and a half miles per hour

Yes the joys of being old....and I can’t wait

In any fair fight, I would lose out big time.

You could destroy me in an instant, much stronger than me.

I do not fight fair however, I am a complete arse.

That is what you trained me for, at huge expense.

You paid me to win, something I take very seriously.

I do not want a single ISIS supporter back here in the UK.

Naughty Primus.

However, you could actually do all those things now, you know! So why wait?

Primus, Please, No. I’m yawning already!
I say, never conform, as all is lost once you do!
