A couple weeks ago my wife and I were watching Family Feud (that might be enough) but the question was “at what age do people associate the word elderly with?”

The top 100 answer “was 60”

My wife and I just looked at each other hummm.

 

[ski3pin]

That is just not right. Not right at all.

I think age if relative. I am an old geezer way above 60, and I don't feel elderly .
Most of the time.

Don't ever call me elderly but do give me senior discounts!

Love the senior perks. Don't seem to be as many nowadays.
Oh well just as long as they keep sending my SS welfare.

When I was young 50 seemed elderly.
Now at 75 - 95 seems about right.

I remember hiring into the factory at 30. I’ll be 62 next month. The health problems I suffered in ‘22 feels like it added about 10 years - but I’m not complaining…….the good Lord gave me a second chance at life, not everyone gets that.
Now I’m the “old man” at work. But I always appreciated the wisdom that comes from listening and talking with those who traveled the path before me.

My wife retired from teaching a couple years ago, but when She and her students would talk about birthdays her little kids (elementary) would say “Wow, you were born in the 1900’s”

Did you know that President John Tyler, in office 1841-1845, still has a living grandson. Harrison Ruffin Tyler

Now that is old…

. . . “Wow, you were born in the 1900’s”

I was born in the first half of the 1900's.

That’s what we had when I was in high school. Remember all the Encyclopedia volumes that use to be on sale at the retail and grocery stores

They even sold door to door by sales people.

Let's not forget the Fuller Brush salesmen.

The first Apple computers were being released when I was in school……with the green desk top screen, just barely advanced from binary code. The school suggested we go to the library and get accustomed with them - I spent my time with them playing Chess and Pong

Post Edit: Which made me think about bell bottoms and tube tops that’s all I’m going to say

On a more serious note, but definately a geezer moment from work I’m currently doing:
