Should We Cull The Over-50s??! (419)
Witchaywoman: What a bizarre thread. I know ONE person over 50 who's about to get "culled."
she must have been drinking
russian rotten drinks
Boban1: I want to be recycled when I turn 49and a half ...
in that case half members will have to be recycled
time4fun4u: It doesnt frighten me,getting to 50.
We are just hitting our stride at 50. 
Ladefoss23: in that case half members will have to be recycled
and OP first. but recycled to what?
Ladefoss23: she must have been drinking russian rotten drinks
Mmmmmmm. Russian Rotten Drinks. Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh.
TrueBlue1986: Time breeds entrenchment, which is why you must step aside. It's not that you should be culled lol, simply retire from shaping a world you no longer comprehend.
The youth's future lies above the soil, your future lies beneath.

I think the guy might have been talking about you when he said "Father forgive them for they know not what they do",,,, or say.
I am doing well...over the operation and such. Was off for 5 months...now I just want to retire...how lovely it would be.
Ladefoss23: he is the younger generation in your land. how did you bring him up?
I am the proud Mother of 2 children who were raised to respect their elders.
Actually my son is 48 this year and my daughter 43 so I guess they are not long for this world according to Trueblue
I think the replies on here speak for themselves.
You only have to go into places like B and Q,Homebase,any of the large Supermarkets in the UK and note just how many older people work there. Why because the Companies know they get respectful staff and happy customers.
Us "golden oldies" put the young to shame.They'd rather live on benefits,so God help the future for the young upstarts who think we are extinct.

Hi My friend,so nice to see you.
9 weeks into my hip op.Still on crutches as they fractured my femur.So glad to hear that you are on the mend.
time4fun4u: Well said Jac.Anything i cant do is because of my knowledge,or skills,not because of my age.However,a person half my age could not do what i do,as it will take them time to gain that experience and skills.

Think he's gone to ground Conrad.No pun intended.
If we were to cull the over 50's, would it then be the over 40's next, and so on?
Different generations are always going to have something to moan about, how their generation is the best and the cheeky young whippersnappers have it so easy, and the old farts just don't understand.

Bodecia: As I progress in life toward my hopefully senile-contented, mint-julip, hammock napping old age, I wonder how the young see us "older" types..?
Do they really think we are useless, out of touch with reality and the Modern World?
What would you consider your age has brought you, apart from more aches, pains and the need for the occasional foot rub?
Do you think you are more wise than you were when you were 20 years' younger?
Do you think the over-50s are discriminated against in the work place? Or do you think they should make way for younger workers??
if we did the younger will never know what True freedom WAS and ISDo they really think we are useless, out of touch with reality and the Modern World?

what is younguns?
Ladefoss23: what is younguns?
The youth of today who may or may not reach old age.!
Everyone should be culled immediately
There is an old saying in Japan, I believe, that says "One does not truly begin to 'Live' until one reaches the age of 60. Why? Because it is then that, hopefully, the person has enough Life Experience to "know" how to Live".
In these times, age CAN be just a number unless of course you believe that at a certain age you must "give up and go to seed". Then it truly CAN be 'all over'.

Kaybee50: My parents were hard-working, sacrificing individuals. My mother held 3 jobs to put food on the table and provide us the basic necessities of life. My father worked hard and rose in his company based on unparalleled work ethics and performance.
I base most of my life experiences and successes on the example my parents and grandparents and great-grandparents set for me.
This does not at all correspond with your ideas.
Could it be that your eyes need to be opened a bit more?

I wouldn't argue with that, I have that opinion of my grandparents and great grandparents generations. They built this country. It's the later generations that inherited prosperous countries and from there have plundered the Earth in creating today's economic shambles.

A bit drastic I'd say!bestbefore: Think he's gone to ground Conrad.No pun intended.

yes, we can all see what your grand parents have achieved and created.
when we were young we were polite and compassionate. god help you when you soon , in a blink , become old. I think "ols peoples home" would bloom in business

that was the old days, nowadays? with kids making hair stick in air with oil and listeniing to noise calling it music, and all kinds of dipe and things. and no compassion? no no, they will not become human even when they are 600 years old

And besides, the 60's, the 70's? That's the kind of wisdom we could do without.
