[Closed] Ignorant old people.

Have you seen what they do with a Honda jazz.!!!

they've probably read your posts on here 😉

There are ignorant twunts from all walks of life and all ages

It was a little old lady btw.

kick 'em in the hip. its guaranteed to put any OAP down.

Fact one. Page one in the Big Book of Facts

you'll be like it one day! 😉

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

It wouldn't have happened in my day..............er...oh!

just move quicker, then they can't catch you...

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.

Have you been reading that thread about Sting?

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

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

Goan

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'

IGMC

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 ?

you'll be like it one day!

No, he's going to be a lot worse than any of today's moaning old gits.

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!

Ive noticed alot of rude and angry OAPs too, Id rather be dead than have such a piss poor outlook on life.

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

Id rather be dead than have such a piss poor outlook on life

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.

An old lady similar to the one that crashed into Goan.

Ever Undergone The Happy Antics Not Allowed Somewhere In America?

Daily Mail readers. I should know, my dad is one. miserable git.

Which was it, random leg collision or Goan-stops-in-traffic-like-an-old-woman-looking-at-the-nice-hat ?

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! 😆

JW - if it was like steel I wouldn't be able to walk.

It was the swearing I wasn't happy with.

What swear words did the [i]"little old lady"[/i] use ? ........ it's kind of hard to comment without knowing

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 ?

Goan - Member

JW - if it was like steel I wouldn't be able to walk.

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.

Youth is wasted on the young

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?

If you haven't made any mistakes you haven't lived.

which is why i would have been happy to let the collision go....

Kids, pah!!!
Thay just get in the way!!! 8)

Should have dived on the ground screaming in pain lol
