    When I can be out with my husband and his best friend who is drunk in the backseat after birthday celebrations and pull out in front of cops going the wrong way on a one way street, look at them and tell them I am getting to old for this shit, and they stop pedestrian traffic for me so I can turn around

    Spending a Friday night posting here on BC. Not a bad way to spend a Friday evening. Yet...is wearing my checkered Bermuda shorts combined with black socks and dress shoes, combined with a loud shirt a sign of old fartiness?

      I think its better to refer to yourself as antique. Everybody likes antiques. Or maybe people used to like antiques when they were new, and not so antique. Either way, you're a classic... like an scratched up CD lol. (Or a busted-tape VHS)
