Act Your Age

I was told all along to behave, be the older one, act properly, be nice. Family, friends, managers - no more mother of pearl polish, knee long pencil skirts, biweekly hair cuts, indoor voice only, hostess of the mostest. What might be the worst outcome?
 
I have only one Walmart and it is always full of people with unruly kids and a real mess with stuff thrown on the floor. A few poorly dressed people, but the PJ crowd is usually early morning. The worst thing about it is all the cons that hang out in the lot and pray on old folks, usually women by themselves. Just about every scam in the book goes on there, even in broad daylight.

The last time I was there, some guy was trying to shake me down, saying I almost ran over him. He wanted a hundred dollars and he wouldn't call the cops. I got out my cell and called the cops, reporting a con man shaking down old folks. He took off. Years ago, one of the old greeters was mugged for reporting a theft. One of the checkers had a scam going with a couple of friends.

The people they hire would be rejected by Barnham and Bailey for being too freaky. Pink and blue hair, man buns (hair), and nose rings with buggers hanging, and tattooed faces.

In times past, I have seen some young gals on the heavy side, dressed in bodycon dresses that hid nothing. I had rather see them in baggy PJ's. :cautious:

Faye, this reminds me of a WalMart scene with Jake and a young mother.
We were in line I had to pee was waiting til I could get to van where my potty was.
She was teaching her kid to count penny's while at the register. I ask her to give the kid lessons after we check out.
She replied ,' trailer trash' Jake said, " how does she know we live in a trailer".She snorted and left, now I'm more upset with Jake than her.

Don't take it too hard. My old Pappy used to say, with people like that, if you have their opinion in one hand and enough money for a cup of coffee in the other, remember that a fresh cup of coffee is infinitely more value. :coffee:
 
Does acting your age, apply to seniors? Let's investigate.

Is your behavior age appropriate?
I’m afraid it is 🤯🤯
 
Wow, braving Wal Mart! That is something I don't do and haven't for years. I don't have the stomach for it.

When I get older and don't shower as often and get slack on other hygienic maneuvers, I am moving to the coast so no one will know where the dead fish smell is coming from. 🥹 :ROFLMAO:
Lmao
 
SO ordered me some sleeveless short shift dresses. 6:00 am ok for coffee with slippers, 10:00 am add earrings and sandals, 18:00 pm replace sandals with boots and add a big smile.
 
To my :poop: list, let me add going partially blind and my eyes unable to sync even with several pair of glasses custom made with prisms. Hope this is readable since all I see is a blur.

Faye can you explain “unable to sync”?

I was at the opthamologist a few weeks back. He says my eyes are 20:20 in the left and 20:25 in the right!?!? Ok fine — so why do my eyes feel like they don’t see on the same level.

Sometimes I have to e large a web page to read it, sometimes not.

I am all ears if you care to share😇. Which, my ears are about all I have left that work half way decent….
