Getting old

[Jen]

I hear that when people get old they get frustrated and angry. I have a friend whose mother started biting people when senility took over. Do you think biting is a dangerous warning sign? Maybe it is.

My wife says she's gonna bite people when she gets old. I ask her what she's waiting on?
Yep she bit me

 

[Tirediron]

I still just snarl

My teeth cost me too much to waste bites on anything except substance!

Getting old sucks, and I certainly understand the frustration and anger parts. I haven't resorted to biting, but there surely have been times when I wanted to.

Best I can do is a hard "gumming" . Or just shoot em

My mom is 91 and usually just yells at people walking down her hallway. She loves to tell them that they're fat.

Amish,

Now I have to go to wally world.

I had a lady once tell me I may be fat you are an *******. I can always diet but you will still be an *******.

Ha Ha.
Mom just has a fat fixation with her dementia. She either is in the mood where she tells me I'm fat, or I'm beautiful. Never know what I will get. Her hospice nurse called on Friday and said she told her that she won't eat lunch with a democrat, and she is not into husband swapping because the other guy was ugly.
Have no idea what she's talking about.

At a family dinner I sat in the living room with my husband's grandmother while everyone else was busy. I had to tell her who everyone was as they walked through the room. My husband's sister walked in and granny said "She's wearing man shoes." She was wearing ladies tennis shoes. I told Sis but she wasn't amused. Granny was cute and funny though she didn't realize it. She didn't try to bite me once.

My mom's dentures are never on well, and she messes with them. That'd be hilarious if she tried to bite. I don't think she would.

Mom doesn’t bite, yet. A guy comes by to visit her five days a week. Mom informed me that they are getting married. He is on channel 303. When he comes to the front door I’ll start worrying.

At age 75 I've learned that sometimes it's prudent to bite my lip instead of telling the Boss Lady how I really feel about something.

I see growing old as fine art.... I'm still working on it. I figure I'll be doing alright if I don't bite my dog.

My dad had on "Old" toy poodle that hated me, one day he was sitting between me and dad, so I started petting him. When he realized it was me he tried to bite me, but his teeth were so loose they just sort of folded out of the way (pointing out in all directions), he sat there chomping air for a few seconds until they slid back into place.

That's about where I'm at, I could try to bite but the only one I would be hurting is myself....

My wife has started hissing - yeah, like a cat - at idiots she encounters. Does that count?

Growing old is definitely an art.

I hope I age like a fine wine rather than .......ummm.............milk.

Nothing wrong with hissing, but it takes a fair amount of spit to do a good hiss.

I prefer to just arch one eyebrow wayyyy up there. That and rolling my eyes gets the point across.
