I was being sarcastic. It's a trait common in old people. Also, b_b is just projecting his fears on to me. The guy just sold a badass condo in the middle of a cool city to buy a family home in the burbs. He traded in his bachelor card for married man shackles and because he can see the mini-van on the horizon -and with it his inevitable mortality, he calls me "old" to try desperately to hold on to the frayed ribbons of his former self. It's sad, really.
No, but earlier today on Hubski someone was mentioning that they don't like to be barefoot in their home unless its on carpet. I started typing out a reply about how I recently bought a pair of house-slippers for the first time and how much I've been enjoying them....... and then I realized how incredibly old I am.
