    What is it with old people who think that it is perfectly acceptable to just about rupture your achilles with a shopping trolley then swear at you? They then try and take the moral high ground when you call them a charmer.

    The last time someone done that to me I turned round and said loudly "if you push hard enough you might get through" he didn't know where to look

    After crippling you they then leave their trolley in the midddle of the aisle at an angle so nobody else can get past, then taking half n hour to choose an item.

    Tell me Goan, why do you think "old" people get a little bit ignorant*?

    * Probably more to do with a lack of self-awareness rather than ignorance, but don't let that stop you being horrible about them.

    DD – I would have let the collision go. It was the swearing I wasn't happy with.

    But what I'm asking is why you think "old" people get like this? I think we all read enough of your posts to know how you'd react to it, but do you stop to think why they seem a little ignorant to you?

    You need to respect old people a bit more mate. Sometimes they're lonely and simply want someone to notice them. Next time an old geezer bumps into you engage him with polite conversation and ensure he/she has all their mental faculties in place by asking them to spell a simple word like 'euthanasia'

    DD – I think they do it because they have been beaten down by years of piss poor labour government and they just want to rebel a little bit. Am I correct?

    Must be frustrating for them to be making good progress and then find some slow lamer in their way. Did they dust you ?

    ban all retired and unemployed from shops between the hours of 12 and 2 when normal people are trying to buy some bloody lunch in thier bloody lunch halfhour.

    also

    ban any retired from using quick scan tills.
    its a computer! face it, you cant use it!

    AND take off the coin option from quick tills.
    the new ones in my tescos are great, scanner works really well now, always picks up the barcode instantly.

    slowed down by some biddy then feeding the bloody thing coppers and silvers.

    cards only people!

    No point in pissing on their shoes, they've probably already done that.

    so do they, but many believe suicide to be a mortal sin resulting in eternal damnation, so they're forced to go around crashing their trolleys into angry young men in the hope of being fragged.

    is it time to bring up old age drivers yet?

    you know, the ones who go EVERYWHERE at 46mph, including 30mph zones and then claim to be safe drivers.

    rupture your achilles?? What were they driving, a shopping trolley or a forklift?

    You achilleses (no idea how to pluralise that one!) must be like steel surely, all that gnarl-core singlespeeding and race-winning you do? Man up! 😆

    Ernie she used the words **** and **** in ways that I haven't heard before.

    @tankslapper lol!

    Maybe someone had a bad day but I would still say sorry after wacking someone with a trolley.

    Stay positive Goan. 😀

    in ways that I haven't heard before.

    Well I thought that I had used both words in every conceivable way possible …….maybe I need to find myself a little old lady to teach me how to use them in more imaginative ways ?

    Braided kevlar then? 😉

    I must admit, old people swearing has a special charm all of its own. You sort of expect them to have forgotten all the rude words they used to use in their twenties and then whoosh!
    Wait until you start bending them around! (errr, I mean in his capacity as a student physio BTW)

    The structure of tendons and ligaments is absolutely *fascinating* – they're so strong, yet have non-linear spring rates and are incredibly flexible.

    Just thought I'd say, having attended a lecture or two on bio materials in my time – it really is a field I'd love to do more research in.

    CK- around 60% of the propulsion from each step comes from elastic rebound of the achilles – fascinating stuff indeed.
