You and me both brother. Someone should seriously start a thread about that. I dont hate them per say...but the things they do.

1.) The fact that they do not have to have any kind of retesting in order to keep their driver's license.

2) They aren't punished for crimes because "of their age".

3) They think people owe them something.....

and the list goes on and on

A nice contrast to the thread you started about your desire to be a better Christian. Very nice. Why don't you go ahead and start this thread you've suggested about what you don't like about elderly people (but we'll keep in mind that you don't hate them "per se").

I'm not going to start the holy war here, but i dont see where me being a Christian has anything to do with the fact that i hate certain behaviors of elderly people. I even pointed out in my comment that i don't hate them as people, but rather their behavior.

And just so you know, my good friend Josh Doll was killed earlier this year by an old driver who was driving on a revoked license. So i think i have a right to be annoyed when it comes to their behavior. Oh and another thing, that old person didnt face any charges whatsoever even though my friend died at their hand...

I know enough to know that being a Christian means accountability. I'm just pointing out that someone should hold the elderly accountable, but no one does.

And i'm sorry if my comments got the thread off topic.

#1 and #2 really isn't their fault and #2 isn't entirely true... as for #3 we do owe them our respect.

Maybe because we do owe them something.

I remember this debate. You are right. I'm sure i'll feel the same way, that after simply existing for 75+ years, the world owes me something too.

Alot of them deserve respect for military service, or fighting in a war. Been there and done that. But i'll tell you one thing. i wont be like these old codgers you see lol.

I learned a new word.

codger [ˈkɒdʒə]n Informal a man, esp an old or eccentric one: a term of affection or mild derision (often in the phrase old codger)[probably variant of cadger]
