1.  Helping you move and carrying twice as much down to the van as the two young punks you hired (who keep stopping to pant and gasp and say, "Man, I need some water").

2.  Humiliating the high school cross-country team at last year's 5K for charity.

3.  Dazzling young hotties you couldn't bone because they have daddy issues and the having sex with them ... well.

4.  Working the room at fund-raisers.

5.  Taking all of the students in their Thursday Night seminar down to Aggieville after class and buying the first round.

6.  Paying for the beer when their favorite team is in the Super Bowl.

7.  Maintaining a golf handicap that is always 3 strokes better than yours.



Sorry,  but I guess I hang out with a different class of "old person."

"What young people are good at"

1. Standing on lawns.
2. Oblivious to the things that would make them productive members of society, and wasting time that could be spent in professional or educational pursuits. -->  :drink:
3. Making posts about other people, not realizing it is a transparent view into their own fears, ignorance, prejudice, and general insecurity about who they are and where they fit in society...

Old people are good at selling robot insurance to other older people. How can we get Bill a job selling robot insurance?
Stanbot?  :dunno:

You may be on to something. Consuming copious amounts of prescription drugs is likely the only explanation for Stanbot's infinite optimism.

If old people weren't good at any of these things, then they would be good at absolutely nothing.

Obsessing over taxes

Feeling remorseful for squandering a lifetime of relationships with family and tossing shallow monetary benefits towards them in attempt to make amends...despite the obvious futility

Failing to recognize when they are loosing their capabilities in professional pursuits

Unable to change ingrained patterns that are ineffective and even destructive

Frightened of new technologies and quickly dismissive of their benefits

Understanding the difference between Loosing and Losing their capabilities.


Congrats though on the proper use of their.    :cheers:
