What is a "Old Fart"

Mr. P said:
I said "knowledge and wisdom" Arch, not "BS". Just kidding, I always hope to learn something from everyone. No, that doesn’t always happen. People are like books in a way, some you’ve read, some you haven’t.


to take that...so whatever-whichever!

I'm not sure if that is a pic of me or pale rider...nice digi cam...lol...oh well at least we don't eat sugar free chocolate cherries....sense of humor is good...very good...kudos!
 
I doubt anyone, even the 'youngins' give two hoots about anyone's age. What is tiresome is the fact that all of us post on certain threads, what we like, think, or want.

It isn't nice to tell someone else that what they like is: sad, just so sad. Like you have the position-which NO ONE has, to say what is right or wrong for them.

You want a 'roughing it' vacation, enjoy. Really, enjoy. Someone else doesn't? They too should enjoy sitting back and reading a book or whatever floats their boat.

You think Denny's and coffee is a hot date? Enjoy. Your lady friend says she'd like something else? Dump her or accomodate her, your choice. Her's too regarding continuation. Others say they think 'such and such' is romantic, especially when it's a wife discussing what she would like from her husband, replies of 'sad, that's so sad' are not condescending, but rather blather.

Not surprisingly, you "get it", Kathianne. You know what's really ironic? My husband and I went to Bermuda for our honeymoon, and again to celebrate our 10th Anniversary. How "sad" of me to think of it as a romantic destination for us.

I hear you. That was the point, each of us has our own 'desires'. I'd rather cuddle in front of a fireplace at home, then go camping. But that's me. Others would be thrilled with that.

I like 'pack a bag for 'warm' or 'downtown', but that is not all I like to do. Denny's and coffee is fine when we want to talk, but I like that some thought goes into it, I mean other than, "I wonder what she wants from me????" Gag me, I've never gone out with anyone for their $$$, nor have I not dated guys that had less than I, (Granted not recently, but that's a function of my age and profession.)

An old fart is simply someone who is:

1. Old,

2. Thinks they know everything,

3. Doesn't really know anything valuable, and

4. Won't hesitate to tell you everything they think they know.

I like this better.

An old fart is:

1. Older

2. Wise enough to know they don’t know it all.

3. Know alot about alot stuff, cuz they’ve been around along time. Much longer than those that condescendingly tag them as “old Farts”.

4. Won't hesitate to tell you everything they know, cuz they have been there and done that, and don’t want to see the same mistakes made again, all ya need to do is ask. But, if they see ya about to really screw-up they may very well say so…Cuz they care.

Like it our not, Old Farts are of value.
*spoken like a true ole fart, don't ya think?* :bat:

Your parents should be proud of you...as my parents taught me...'Respect your elders'...'Play with your equals'... and by all means try to help those younger!( Show them your mistakes) ;)
