The best thing about dementia is being able to wrap your own holiday gifts and still be surprised when you open them.....

......When the top of your head isn't the only place you get grey hair!

......When the oldies stations now play Cindy Lauper's songs

......When Izod shirt was the height of fashion

......When Daisy Duke was an actual character on a TV show

wcr3d · 09-23-2020, 05:12 PM

Now that is depressing.

vreihen16 · 09-23-2020, 06:34 PM

Not as depressing as hearing KISS as elevator music!

Get off my lawn, kid.....

You are using your massager to give your prostate a massage.

I meant depressing that he thinks that is old.
I’ve got clothes older than he is.

So tell him to get off your lawn! I mean, come on, his forum name identifies him as Gen-X, and he can't even spell CYNDI Lauper's name correctly.

Believe it or not, Cyndi Lauper is 67 years old. She is welcome in this thread as an old fart.....

wcr3d · 09-24-2020, 09:05 AM

I know she was older than she tried to look and act back then.
She could tell me to get of the lawn but probably doesn't have any.

I knew the spelling, but ran the name through my search engine du jour to triple check (because I'm old and need to check my memory for errors) and it popped up as hit #1 along with her bio.....

iminhell1 · 09-24-2020, 06:11 PM

Seen a Roger Clemens rookie card being sold for $8 on FB Marketplace.
I've seen a lot of trading cards being sold off cheap in the last while. Really hurts to see. One of those had I known situations ... I'd of sold all mine back when they had some value still. The way it is now I have thousands of worthless little pieces of cardboard.
Not to mention all my worthless little pieces of metal in the shape of cars.

vreihen16 · 09-24-2020, 07:55 PM

Don't feel bad. All that I have is piles of pocket-sized pictures of dead presidents...and because COVID they might be rendered obsolete in favor of contact-less, cashless transactions! I mean, c'mon, how does an old fart pay for his morning newspaper if the stores don't accept cash payments?????

It would take an old fogey to get that.
She wasn’t a bad looking woman just nuckin futz!
Boys just wanna have fun!

You remember most, if not all, of these scenes...albeit in a different fashion.

I've been a "one-sneezer" my whole life but in the last year I've turned into a "two-sneezer"
