I fucking HATE old people
 

YEAH. My parents go out of town and leave me with my dumb FUCK grandmother (she lives with us, sadly). I HATE her, she never shuts the FUCK up!!! She lives on our ground floor, which is why I stay UPSTAIRS ALL DAY, because she's so fucking STUPID. She NEVER does ANYTHING and she complains about EVERYTHING. She's been BITCHING all FUCKING day about the STUPID FUCKING temperature being TOO FUCKING cold for her and forcing me to fix the FUCKING thermostat that WON'T FIX!!! She keeps calling me in her scratchy annoying as FUCK voice to tell me, even though everyone FUCKIN KNOWS, that it's COLD. get the FUCK OVER IT!

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT---

END ANNOUNCEMENT--------------------

Everytime they leave she BITCHES uncontrollably! I HATE IT! Someone, PLEASE, come over here and SHOOT HER! OR ME! I don't fucking CARE! AND then, she's like, "i want food." and i'm all "NO" cause she's too fucking LAZY to make it herself even though shes 10 feet from the fucking kitchen and she drank all the fucking pepsi and we're all out and AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

and THEN, she's like "call the repair man!" and i'm like' "you call him you lazy WHORE" and she's like "WHAT?!" And... ugh.... FUCK!



****************************End pms

On a lighter note, I have a car and I can leave soon, thank GOD.

Stupid... ... ..... everything about her.


I hope this made someone's day:)

omfg..... I... i can't stand her, you don't even understand.

I need more than 250,000 dude. But thanks.

That's what happens when you live with people you're related to...
How long until you can move out, or better yet: Get a life! Go hang out with some friends. Go do something crazy and fun. Get your mind off of crazy old women.

can't wait to read and/or watch about you. we only get the big stuff like cnn and the the new york times over here. if you could possibly let us know when you are planning it then i could keep an eye out. where did you say you were from?

:rolleyes: I'm not going to kill her. I'm going to survive and let my mother do it when she finds out what she put me through.

i must say that i agree with you totally. old people do fucking suck, except for a couple out there. but, yeah, my stepdad's mother used to live with us til we got so sick of her shit my mother said "either she goes of i do". she is the devil rein-fucking-carnated. she used to yell at me cause i didn't do the dishes right. this was something i never figured out....

i am doing the dishes, if they are getting done, and they're clean...WHAT IS THE FUCKING PROBLEM?

she made me cry once too. pissed me off so much because nobody fucking makes me cry.

anyway, i'm sorry the old woman's on your case. we've all been there, or at least most of us.

my only objection is their driving. they have the reflexes and hand eye coordination of 5 year olds. therefore, lets let the kids behind the wheel. things couldn't get any riskier

If there were no old people none of us would be here. Suck it up, deal with their shit, and be happy you're alive.

Just cause you're old yourself. OLD! Artifact of the PAST!

What's so funny about that? I can't fix a thermostat either.

Don't feel bad, it's probably the thermocouple anyway.

The whosawhatsit now? lol

I understand - completely. My grandmother makes me nuts too. I thought I was a thankless utterly contemptable grandchild until the day I realized my grandfather couldn't stand her either. Now I live totally guilt free.;)

The thermocouple senses if the pilot is hot enough to burn the gas. If all's good it keeps the main gas valve in the pilot open. If the thermocouple fails it basically just reads the pilot as out and won't open the gas valve. Probably the single most common furnace failing and is quickly/cheaply (under $10.00) fixed.

So now I know. That's information I'll probably never use, but if it happens to come up in conversation somehow I can at least pretend to be smarter than I really am.

And that will make the FURNACE not work...Not just the thermostat...A clogged/very dirty coil and/or blower motor will cause the igniter to burn out, and the safety switch will kick it off, but that makes the furnace not work, too...Thermostat is usually something much simpler...Wires or something

And knowing is half the battle!

Thermostats also have a sensor that sometimes needs to be reset by simply turning it off for 5 or 10 minutes and then switching it back on. The stats themselves rarely go bad.

Exactly...Something simple...Maybe just a loose connection or something

But yeah...I'd try resetting it first

Man, why does Rayne have to be smarter than me?

Scorpio/Cancer...We balance out...You're much more talented than I am ;)

I suspected you weren't keeping me around for my superior conversation, now I'm sure of it.

:(

This is gonna get sexual really damn soon.

My grandma was the exact opposite. She really really didn't want to be a burden to anybody, but it was to the point where THAT was annoying. Like, when my parents left I was at home to take care of her (she couldn't be left alone in the house for very long at a time) and obviously had to eat, so I'd ask what she wanted, and she'd never give an actual answer. You had to say "I'm going to fix you a can of vegitable soup, okay?" and she'd say it was fine, but if asked, she'd just say not to worry about it. I appreciated the thought, but the trouble of opening a can and pushing "soup" on the microwave doesn't much tip the scale against "cancer-ridden diabetic grandma not getting food," I'm going to fix you food, I thought I'd give you some say in what you eat, meet me half-way here.


I don't mind the old people as a whole so much. It's those young people that can go fuck themselves. Children are the worst.

High school freshman are the worst. Old people are close. "Give me free money because my boobs are 3 feet long!!! roooaaarr"

I'd rather someone who's maybe worked for money for 50 years and possibly actually endured hardships ask for money than some little wretch who's never worked a day in their life expect everything to be handed to them. There's old people that suck, sure, but the elderly as a whole is a distant 5th on the list of groups of people that suck

Young, old, black white, it doesn't matter, ppl just suck.

Nope. I've never really been bullied or picked on, other than jokingly of course.

I've been reading this thread and I think it is a good catharsis thread so we can let all those little hurts out and let them have their scream and then folks'll feel better and then all is good. Maybe Zero will come in and bless us and give us baskets of monkey fruits for our troubles, do a little deus ex machina thingie.

You should never hate old people, especially if they are a part of your own family. They have gone through tough times to bring us (or our Dads and Moms) up, and now when they grow old and frail, and their body is slowly weakening and shrivelling up, they need someone's support to lean on.
I have seen my maternal grandfather shut himself out of the world once he retired from public service, and keep to himself till his death 10 years back. He was given a bed near the bathroom by my maternal uncle who did not want to take care of him, but was ready to grab his retirement pension money. The guy who saved enough to marry off 5 daughters and secure the future of his 2 sons, spent the rest of his days inhaling fumes from his younger son's bathroom, and staying quiet. He ate whatever was given to him, prayed, and slept. And when he died, there wasnt much fuss either.
Just remember, old people were actually us once. Those guys were young and full of life too, like us. Someday we will grow old also, and when our body starts behaving erratically, and the problems dont solve themselves, we also grow a habit of being irritated at the smallest of things. Our children and grandchildren will be annoyed with us then. "Future is a mirror of thy's present", so even if they are irritating, annoying, pestering etc. etc., they deserve our attention and our love. You give it, so you will get it.

That's very profound, Kane.









Perhaps you can explain why you went to work playing Jason Voorhees, as it was obviously not your true calling.

I am obviously not the original Kane Hodder, crabapple.:o I am just a fan of the person who breathed life into so many horror movie characters.:)

I was only kidding of course.

That was actually very profound what you wrote, though.

Truth isn't just one thing...it's many different perspectives intersecting.

Each individual person may shift through a whole spectrum of different perspectives over time, without even being aware of it.

That is very true. I might add to that by saying that each person sees the truth which they choose to see, not otherwise, nor the complete truth.

I'd like her if she wasn't a mooching twit. She blames me for everything that she doesn't WANT to take the rap for, but, i'm done talking down on her for the night.

You'll be okay. A good night's rest and some pleasant dreams will do wonders for you.

That is good of you, Posher, to put up with her. I know for a fact that most old people can be very annoying and can get on your nerves, but patience is a virtue with them. Just remember, show your affection for her and she is bound to change her attitude towards you too. Have a good rest tonight like crabapple said, and you will feel much better by morning.:)

yeah i totally agree.
I on the other hand adore old ppl..but thats because I don't have to live with them anymore.
My grandfather stayed with us for awhile..':rolleyes:'
when we were alone he was a sprite old bastard..forever chatty and doing things for himself.
When family members visited..out came the aches and pains..the ailments..the walking stick..the complaints.
So one day..i told him ..ok you old fart..you wanna play it like that..i want you to memorise this number..0800 oldfolkshome'.(to my mums disgust)
He soon snapped out of it. :o
