I Wanted to Smack Her

[disbelief11]

Just came from a Halloween party. The party was great...all except for this one young lady (who, it was later confirmed, was still in her twenties) who was complaining about being old. She said it with a capital O: O-L-D. Like she was so old she may as well die now, that was how she said it.

As she was surrounded by more than a few people who were already past her age, she got some negative feedback to that statement.

Yes, young miss, you ARE old. So, so, so, so old. Here, let me escort you back to your room at the rest home and please don't mind my foot as I give you a kick in the ass on the way there.

Young and old are relative terms, not absolute. I know I feel old ALL OF THE TIME, just because I'm comparing to my younger self and the things I used to do. She probably thought of the kids asking for candy on Halloween and how she's not socially allowed to do that anymore. I know I'd be grumpy if the told me I can't have candy *g*

I'd've said, well, that explains the saggy tits, then.

No I wouldn't have.

But I would have WANTED to for a very bad minute.

Good one!

If I had thought of that, I would have wanted to say it as well.
