Every so often I'll stumble upon posts stating who and what someone writes for, the whys, the why nots.
I usually nod or say 'Fuck you Random Guy or Gal' and move along.
Sometimes, I want to comment, like, 'Well, I don't write for you neither jacknad!' but I don't, it just makes it easier for all concerned.
I don't really write for any particular generation. I have a mix of ages in my readership and I read a mix of different ages.
The 1902s are my favorites but I've been known to peek in on the 2000s and shake my head and wander back to my 1222s!
Course this discussion always leads to the same topic, old people seemingly do need more care than the youngens and the oldies love to siphon off the social security funds.
Them old bastards!
Be ashamed.
My solution to this problem is really easy.
Old people, you just need to wander off into the frozen wasteland which is the back yard and die.
Be a good sport and dig your own grave before you go, make it easier for us to like dispose of your corpse.
Make sure you make a will leaving your millions of dollars to me.
Be nice like that and we might return the favor and put a nice headstone on your grave.
Probably not.
That way, years later, when Super Walmart builds a new store there, they'll find your remains and maybe, just maybe, you'll start an investigation.
Probably not.
So see, solution is easy.
You know what to do.
Yes, write a blog in return demanding that the Youngen Generation kill themselves!
It's the right thing to do!
Good night and have a better tomorrow.
P.S.
Who do I write for?
YOU!! AND ONLY YOU!! ~big smooch~
And my brother George!!!

Julie, see, we're the youngens, we get to knock off the generation before us. Possibly after us too, so they don't get any ideas!! ~:D
cc, more people should plan like that!! Me? Just throw me in an old cardboard box and leave me at the animal shelter, they'll know what to do!! ~:D

Wait. What?
~dodges old(er) people's arrows on the way to the thorn bushes~
I love your independent attitude and spirit! I too started work at 16...... but 16 years before you! Near as I can figure out, that would have been about the time you were getting yourself born.
I truly hope that you keep on dancin' and I won't mind awfully much if you crank up the volume once in a while while you listen to those who make us more mature folks grateful we'll soon be dead! Funny how your generation just totally missed out on music......, ah well, we had music - you had volume.
Oh; about the dancing? Make sure your hip replacement insurance is paid up........... You will simply just not believe what happens to your body after 60!! Seems like every doggone part heads in a different direction any time you stand up!
;-)

Until then I'll keep enjoying our resident Tink(er toy)'s wit and wisdom..
Rated for it surely does take all kinds eh?
At 55 I fear I am closer to old than young, if I haven't just blown past the oldie line, not quite ready to give it all up though. It must be admitted I live in a nice little duplex that would come vacant upon my demise. Maybe I'll wait till I no longer enjoy hookers and cocaine. Speaking of which if you are writing for me I would really appreciate more hookers and cocaine. When are hookers and cocaine not appropriate? My ex-wife suggested not at our actual wedding ceremony, but her great aunt was already doing lines off one of the blondes ass's and seriously disagreed. In fact all hookers and cocaine all the time has been a short term successful business model for several, mostly incarcerated or dead, acquaintances of mine.
They have the biggest appetite, the healthiest dose of self-love, and, by god, they want to live forever. Best way to cut the population in half would be to dish up the poor to the rich, not the other way around.
After all, that was Swift's original proposal: Feed the Irish to the English, not the English to the Irish.
And then, as with Hitler, we (I mean, boomers) can all have more "living space!"
Think of it!
(P.S. I liked your post due to your idea of Carousel!! Old people, whatcha gonna do to them!!! :D)
Myriad, ~nodding~ Good idea!!!!!!!! MO MONEY!! :D

Anthony, I think hookers and cocaine are cross-generational!! I can talk to someone from the 1901s and they're like, HOOKERS AND COCAINE!!! :D
Sirenita, ~nodding~ I've already written a rant about my parents and let them read it. They disowned me, and good thing, I really don't have that much money to pay off their debts!!! :D
Jan, get the to The Dome!! :D (Actually, I've discovered more interesting stories from the More Refined/Older Generation than the younger smartasses, so, keep living!! :D)
Carlo, I'm all about eating the young. Like veal man. No eat the old, they'd be tough and chewy!!! :D
Jan, again, old = tough and chewy, young = like veal, can cut it with a fork!! What? :D Oh yeah, don't forget the gravey!! Those of you in your twenties, report to the uh, Reassignment Chamber!! :D

After working for every summer and after school for neighbors for about 5 years I finally got a real job at 16 and haven't stopped paying in to the system.
I sure don't need some squeaky voiced little twerp telling me I'm lazy.
Now my cat is glaring at me.
I am glad you are alive.
This morning we had a discussion in front of a supermarket,three people involved in small talk.
We agreed on one point that as long as our head functions well,we can go on living.
Gadamer,when asked how he felt being 100yrs old replied
"As long as I am clear in my head I like to stay alive".
He finished his last book and died.
Another gentleman who had turned 90 last year,decided at the beginning of this year that he had lived long enough and stopped eating and drinking thus prepared himelf by means of free will for his exit.Marvellous!!!
Jan,if you can,please stay on for as long as you like,but for me,every day counts.
Joanne, ahhh thanks!! ~:D
L.E. like I said, death is easy, just the no breathing that's the tough part!! ~:D
femme, I wanna be in Paris too!!!! :( :D
alsoknownas, and I'm hissing at ya!! ;D
Al, canz we eatz them? :D
Heidi, every day should count!!!! I wouldn't want to live forever anyways, unless I got to choose which age I got to stick at and was in good health, otherwise, what would be the point!! ~nodding~
What a problem!!!
You said, "".........I wouldn't want to live forever anyways, unless I got to choose which age I got to stick at and was in good health, otherwise, what would be the point!......"". Do you see it?
In order for you to decide which age "to stick at", you'd have to experience that age. If you have experienced it, then it is past; gone, over with, too late to "stick" at!!! You could NEVER stick at the right age!
Of course you could always stick at too early an age. Is that any better than sticking too late? Nah...... not good at all.
Sounds fun! Too early or too late but NEVER at the right age!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Yoiks!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
;-)
.
sky, but see, if I got to choose that age, it would mean, some Great Power would give me the ability to do it, so that Great Power would be able to show me the past, present and future!!
ISSUE RESOLVED!! :D
Tee-hee....! Some po' cats jes can't work this here logic stuff at all, can they? Look'it what ya said..... again!
""............if I got to choose that age, it would mean, some Great Power would give me the ability to do it, so that Great Power would be able to show me the past, present and future!!""
A perfect example of starting with a conclusion and inventing premises to support it! Let's break it down just a wee tad ( just lightly - not really seriously)......... (My responses in bold - not shouting)
""...........if I got to choose that age (MAYBE YOU AUTOMATICALLY JUST STOP AGING AT A CERTAIN POINT AND HAVE NO CHOICE IN THE MATTER OF WHEN),
.............it would mean, some Great Power would give me the ability to do it (ONLY IF YOU ASKED ME VERY POLITELY AND SHARED YOUR NIGERIAN PRINCESSES WITH ME)
.............so that Great Power would be able to show me the past, present and future!!"" (WHY? JUST 'CAUSE I WOULD - MAYBE - TELL YOU WHEN TO STOP, DOESN'T MEAN THAT I KNOW THE RIGHT TIME TO STOP - HEY, I'VE ALREADY TOLD YOU LOTS OF OTHER LIES...... RIGHT?!!)
(AND EVEN IF I WOULD BE ABLE TO SHOW YOU THE "RIGHT TIME TO STOP", WHO SAYS I'D 'WANT' TO SHOW YOU? I MEAN, ETERNITY IS AWULLY LONG FOR ME TOO, Y'KNOW? MAYBE TEASING FOOLISH ORANGE CATS IS MY IDEA OF HAVING A GOOD TIME!)
