Grumpy Old Men and Crabby Old Women are so common they’ve become a cliché, but now that I’ve achieved that Stage in Life (the male version) I think it happens because once you realize you aren’t different and God isn’t making an exception in your case and you are going to get old and die (hopefully in that order) you no longer have the time or patience to put up with other people’s bullshit.
Fun being old..my grandmother said years ago , while in her 90's, that she could say whatever she wanted to and she didn't care if others thought she was bat shit crazy..
Noticed that grumpy old folk's dogs can be barometers of their owner's level of indignation. Funny then while in the face of certain death by Schnauser the dog's owner is often screaming at their dog whilst trying to apologize and with a sheepish grin on their faces.
The truth likely being they feel the same as their dog!
I wish I'd figured this out when I was a lot younger, but one of my new goals is to not live up to other people's expectations. And who doesn't like burritos?

Indifference is a super power I'm working on developing.
This is funny and insightful, from one old grump to another.
Thanks, we have to stick together.

Very good! Made me laugh! My favorite is “When life gives you lemons say fuck it and buy a burrito”*
