So I understand fully, the posters think once you hit the mid 70's in age, you are :
Wearing diapers
A Drooling Idiot
A Walking Corpse
An Imbecile
Can't speak
Can't think
Can't function
Fall Down a lot, stumble
Are a major burden to society
No capacity for articulation or intellect
and many, many more...........
No since all this MUST BE TRUE, why do we keep these people around. Shouldn't we just toss them all in nursing homes and ignore them, from what is written - ABSOLUTELY !
So all you age bashing posters - what should happen to you as you approach your mid 70's or are already there - should the 77,000 IRS Agents in Black Suburbans/ Helicoptors come and grab you and lock your feeble, walking corpse azz up ! Yessir what a future that awaits you !
I personally like the idea of "those" people being competent still - for their age- it gives me hope for myself down the road. I know many, many farmers very active still on the farm in my area - after all the average age of a farmer is like 66 years old and they are doing just fine out there on their real farms.
We have a local senior pickleball league with many players in their late 60's/ early 70's playing still - you are as old as you want to make yourself - amiright?
Exercise, good diet, laughing, friends, crossword puzzles for the brain activity - all things that make for a better life
