Don’t worry there’s no deadline on this and this post will not self destruct (would be cool to make one that did). Of course, we all face one very dead “dead line” someday after which a friend might write a nice memory of you. I’ll assume that “dead line” is many many years off for all of us.
I'm getting a little stuck on a subject. The subject of aging still lingers in my mind after writing a few recent posts on the subject.
Oh yeah, your mission if you choose to accept it (queue up the Mission Impossible theme here) is to consider the following two expressions and ask another person about them.
angry old men
nice old ladies
I suspect most all of you have heard and perhaps used these two age related gender specific phrases. I would like to know your feeling of the matching gender one applying to yourself. In other words, are you a member of that group? Also, it would be interesting to get the opinion of another (more if you feel like polling) person in your life.
In case your inquiring mind wants to know. I hope I am not considered an angry old man but I don’t find the phrase to be completely non-applicable. I have my days occasionally.
