Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 When you start getting discounts. My son-in-law is a fiend for discounts and has infested me with the bug. I walk around with pockets full of coupons and always ask if they give discounts for senior citizens, veterans, college grads (You'd be surprised. We just saved $400.00 a quarter on our auto/homeowners package), AAA, NRA, AARP (I'd personally rather pay full price), Alcoholics Anonymous (always good for a laugh), or the Grange.

Warden Callaway Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Mary started getting white hair before she was 20. Lots of white hair by 30. Completely white by 40. She'd always go in to get motel room or tickets or pay at restaurant and they would almost always give her the senior discount. That didn't bother her. What bothered her was when women 20 and 30 years older assumed she was her age. "You remember back in the war when you had to save stamps to buy butter and gas."

Noz Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Or when you mention to someone about seeing Peter, Paul and Mary in concert and they look at you and say "Who were they?" Baltimore, Maryland. 1966. I had just returned from almost 4 years in Germany and had to hire a baby sitter for our two children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I knew I was getting old when I signed my Medicare card.

Warden Callaway Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 When your wife double checks your every move like you are 10 years old. "Did you turn off the burner? Did you put away the milk? Did you remember to put the flag up when you put the mail in the box?" On and on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah Bob #35998 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I started getting gray hair in my early thirties. It used to piss me off when they asked if I wanted the Senior Discount. Now I'm like Forty Rod. Carry the coupons and GIMMETHEDAMNDISCOUNT! I think I earned it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheyenne Culpepper 32827 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 when the sweet young things are the age of your daughter, but it gets worse! When the sweet young things are just older than your granddaughter. When your wife gets out of a restroom before you do. pb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
