older people rock

[gwb72tii]

meet my mother in law
78 years old
has had rheumatoid arthritis since she was 18
recently contracted uterus cancer, broke her hip, lost all her hair to chemo
her hair is growing back now since the chemo stopped and she rocks a mohawk
we call her the energizer bunny cause she just keeps going forward no matter what
nothing gets her down
pretty much the nicest person i've ever met

Old people kick ass. Especially REALLY old ones who are a little crazy.

I have met some of the coolest people in my life being a cable installer, and so many of them are hilarious old people who just don't give a fuck. They say what they mean, and they don't care who knows it, whether it's hilarious or the most truthful thing you've ever heard.

Awesome!

My great uncle is 95 years old now and he is still sharp as a tack. Remembers things from way back when...it's awesome listening to his stories.

Oh sooo much life they have experienced. To be able to remember how things were in the 30's and 40's must be amazing and frustrating at the same time. When I speak to a friend of the family and she relates that she could fill up her gas tank for $1.60 I look at her like she is from Mars!

She also talks about owning some of the most sought after Classic Cars today like it was nothing to own them and drive them.

I always try and listen closely to the stories told by the older generations as they have knowledge of an era long gone by. In general they say that , "Life was simpler back then and people really cared for each other unlike today"

That statement does not bode well for coming generations that will be even more aloof and disconnected from their fellow humans.

She looks like Miracle Max's sister (if he had a sister). Tell her I said she's awesome!

I drink a cup of coffee with my today 80 Y/O mother-in-law. She is healthier than me and I think she's gonna outlast me too. Interesting to hear what older people hav to say. I esp. love the storys about when she was a kid in WW II- with 2 sisters and her mother-- crazy world.

I have learned more from old people about life, work, and the world in general from hanging out with old people than I ever learned in formal education, I consider that my real education.

Old people are the greatest thing we have, other cultures revere their elders!!!!! In ours it seems the young have nothing but distain for them in many cases

My great grandmothers from both sides of my family lived to be 103 years old.

im pretty sure they both smoked throughout their lives.

Shits crazy.
