Sites for older

Something I just noticed. The side bars ads for other sites are all for women seeking men. Women who want older men. Women who are party animals. Women and more women. I dont see ads to lure women who want men.
So..do the companies think men are more desperate. More gullible? Fall for a pretty gal without caring for anything else?
They think women are pickier? We wont fall for a photo of a handsome young stud? More women seeking than men?
So men..dont fall for it!

Is the whole world going insane?

Now as an old person, I have lived through the best of times and the worst of times. History tells us about chaotic periods and times when people thought society meant little.
But, even tho every generation rails about the young, it seems things are more out of hand then ever.
People refuse to follow laws, act self centered, want a free ride and think that entertainment is all that is important. Children raise themselves or have helicopter parents. Schools teach fluff that ill prepares kids for the real world. Government sticks its nose into private life more and more.
Forests are burning, oceans rising, diseases rampant. People breed like rats in some countries and babies die because they cant be provided for. Countries that have more people than the land can feed, migrate to other countries and cause them to have more than they can feed.
Half the people rule and the other half rebel. Body counts are glorified. One person gets killed and gets media and change...another dies and no one notices nor cares.
All I am certain of is that I am glad to be old so wont have many more years to watch my world disintegrate.And in whatever form it takes, the land will survive. I have no family to worry about so...

RE: Hot Rods and Motorcycles

Harley sales are down because all of us who buy them, are getting too old to ride them. So they are now going after the fart popper brigade. Two new bikes..one electric and one that can do off road or on. The one I like the add on..when you stop for a light, it automatically lowers to 31 inches so no standing on tip toe to balance. Now that I could dig. Altho with my rat bike hard tail chopper...I can do better. Like stand flat footed. Na ha ha.

RE: High-Maintenance People

Oh yeah..real high. As I sit here in second hand shorts that I just added elastic to because I cant do more tucks or wont get them on. And a second hand t-shirt that is too big. I combed my hair this morning? Or didn't I... Nope..didn't.
Name brands? Yep. If they show up at Goodwill and they dont ask too much. Makeup..when I go to town. Hey masks are great. Do eyes and skip the rest. Hair do..whatever it WILL do.
I do the waiting on, rarely get waited on. Pay for something I want and I will pay you back. No free rides.

What is sad are desperate lonely people who fall for a line. I was friends with one. He told me about this gal who was hot for him. He wanted to see her in person. Oh, sorry, work sent her to England. Then he told me about how she needs a phone so he sends her one. And something else. Then she wants him to drop ship clothes and money she sends him to someone else. I kept warning him. Oh no..she is real!
I asked him, why send to you when she could just send direct? No answer. Then one day the FBI contacted him. And he ended up in contact with another guy she was using. They exchanged info..hmm. What the deal was is she? would shoplift high priced clothes, send to him to make a trail to the fences. And also send him money to send on. Other guy too. He was lucky cause he had 2K she had sent that he hadnt passed on yet. So kept it. And then gave me some clothes he still had. Underwear that cost at least $20 a piece. The worst was he had a broken heart as well as the other guy did.
There is a difference in falling in love with it being way out of same ages or physical lacks. And just going by physical. WE all age. We all develop diseases. We may lose fortunes. But, sad when someone steals them.

RE: Why are humans here on earth?

Geeze buddy..do your own thread!
I wonder when nature will decide humans are a dead end and smuck us like the dinos?

Surrender your rights.

Control in other words? Spy on all to protect the elite? And who chooses who sits in the ivory tower?
Perhaps the poor working slob who keeps their nose to the grindstone, makes and then buys the products they produce, there fore making a few wealthy? History is filled with the legends of the outcome of a few "protecting" the masses. Who has that poem about when they came for the Jews?

RE: Why are humans here on earth?

The power of the universe is able to do anything. So when bored....lets just see where this goes. oops..

Surrender your rights.

Listened to NPR this am. Talk was on ring doorbells and how cops can/cant/should/shouldnt have access to the videos. Interesting. Seem ring owns the videos, not the homeowner. And they get stored in the cloud. So if cops demand them, up to the company to decide.
In past years, take overs were done by dictators. I see much of the same happening more and more in the US.
China turned kids into spies of parents. Neighbors too. Now that is how this country is going. Teachers grill students. Neighbors spy on neighbors.
A guy with a mustache burned books and made some wear a star. Now we use cancel culture.
Orwell wrote about cameras. Now people carry tracking devices and tape everyone else while store and street light cameras record all. Stop at a stop signal and get your car and plate preserved for the future. The decent store tells you of recording and even puts up a screen so you can see yourself BEING recorded.
The see something/ say something mantra has become a spy networks. No one minds their own biz anymore. Just in case...you do something against the law. Or that they dont like. How dare someone be in an alley after midnight wearing a black hoodie. Guess what..black saves on laundry.
Go under the speed limit and cops get called. Be a lackadaisical driver, hit that rumble street, get the heck scared out of you and swerve a bit and that car behind will report you swerving all over the road.
Park in a car and snooze while waiting for that shopper who takes forever and there is the cop. For sure, dont knock on the window and check yourself. You might have to be too concerned.
Dog in a kennel..call the cops. So they can take the time to check that the dog has a house, water, food and is happy rather than tearing up the sofa. Could have walked closer yourself to see. But, hey..that takes too much effort.
Yet media reminds people to check on elders when hot or cold. Thats cause no one bothers. Big Brother is alive and well and getting his hooks in better and better. Of course..it is for your own good.

RE: Phone Number Phenomenon

Things were different decades ago. Now I am leery of everyone. When I posted long ago on Craigs List, I got the married guys looking for a free ride. What got me is when you tell those guys what about your wife..you get the "so, what she doesnt know garbage! I know when I bartended there were the bar flies that hit on any and every guy for a free drink. And were willing to put out for an evening of getting drunk. Most of them...a guy couldnt GET drunk enough!

RE: Can you finish two pints of your favorite ice cream at one sitting and

Nope, cause I dont really like ice cream. When I grew up, dad did so we always had a container in the freezer. Neighbor kids visit and mom would ask if they wanted some.. Treat for them.. I would pass.
We had an ice cream plant in town, owned by a guy who became a noted state Senator. Dad would stop there periodically.
I like coffee ice cream or custard if any. I pick up ice cream for my guy when he visits. And get ticked at the brands. Years ago, there was ice cream with the first ingredient of cream. And ice milk which was milk. Now I check every one and the first is milk or buttermilk! Why buttermilk which is sour?
I researched on line and seems Eddys or Hagan Daz are the too best ones. Even they do the milk route. Culvers custard is better.

Sites for older

I see the side bars for other sites that crack me up. The model is always gorgeous. And looking for older men. If they do a blurb they like to cook and make out and party.
Gee, how can any man resist rushing to that dating site. If, and I mean IF, there are women on there looking for an older man, I would be thinking Anna Nicole Smith. Their ideal older man is around 80 with one foot on a banana peel and the other on his bank books.
Same for the guys after an older woman. Same desire. Or, they think being kept is worth sleeping with a prune.

RE: Hot Rods and Motorcycles

Smart idea for baby! Back to the 50s is on in Minneapolis this weekend. You know, that city with all the riots. And the kicker...severe storms tonight with hail, rain, wind. Trailer queens can go back inside. What do the rest do, run that open roadster into your motel room?

What I notice about date sites.

Great..now I have an ear worm of Secret Agent Man song!! I too use CS as my ONLY social media contact. Keeps the bulk of the jerks out that troll social sites. It is just nice to chat with others on here with no angst about the rest. Those who want a mate, can try. Those that dont, can just socialize here.

RE: Aliens announce they're ready to beam us up

We should be so lucky..dont forget the rest of congress.

Lets out PC, PC

It is sad that some walk around with a chip on their shoulder. And they feel vindicated if someone makes a comment. I have no interest in how anyone is..just don't shove it in my face. I dont, so neither should you. Just be and live and let live. Carry on with a normal life and dont annoy people trying to justify yourself. I like that description he posted above.
What is screwy now is how in the interest of equality, more and more labels are being made up.

What I notice about date sites.

I never intended to get married when young. Then met my husband to be in high school and decided maybe there was SOME worth to males. Checked out the bar scene and others when single again. Met my late husband when he went past my farm and ran out of gas with his Harley. Good bye guys I dated, hello husband..dropped on my doorstep. Met my guy now under Strictly Platonic when Craigs did date stuff.
Seems when it is meant to be, it happens. The harder one tries the less chance to meet someone worthwhile. The saying goes, one has to kiss a lot of frogs. The risk is when people dont take the time to discover that frog is actually a toad!
I know marriage at my age is not important anymore. No kids to raise, no house to buy, no future to grow together, no learning to trade. But, what is odd is now lots of young people have do desire to marry. Which is weird is that it seems it is a bigger deal for gays to get that license. Guess cause always was impossible.
More and more people opt for single-hood now. Which is bad for kids, but saves on divorces.
I knew a few guys that the song fit. Just go to a bar and buy some woman a house. I told my late tenant after we moved out a %^*^&$ he had that next time he wanted a woman, do me a favor and just go to the womens prison, stand outside the fence and wait for one to escape!
He did end up on some date site I found out when he wanted me to meet a woman he had met and wanted to move in. She turned out nice. But, left him cause he had issues. Oh well. Such is life and me without a wife the saying goes. They never married even tho she wanted it.

What I notice about date sites.

Stalkers are a good reason to not share too much for a long time. You can block on here. Not so easy in real life. Once he kills you, they will give you a restraining order.

What I notice about date sites.

Stress and tension. People get on a site h*ll bent to score. Either a quicky, a date or a mate. That is not how life works. Most matches are made casually. You get to know a co-worker, your repeat clerk or waitress. You gather at a party and talk to everyone the same..girl, boy, young, old, single , married. You, at least most, don't pounce on a person and ask..wanna get married?
Date sites, first off, no one knows how to say hi. Or..that is all they do! Right...on here it has to be 4 letters..so hello. What do you say to the next person in the checkout line? Hi? NO! You mention the wait time. Or the weather. Or I see you have that item, have you tried it before? You know..stuff.
Some of us are on here for fun/ chatting/ entertainment or social contact. We do threads and blogs.
Want a relationship? Pretend you at at a gathering or party. Talk like it. Then WITH TIME, things may progress and you find someone you have been chatting with, means a bit more than the rest.
The best mate is that person that was your best friend first. Stop rushing it. You click or your dont. Cant force it. Get to know people on the site. Visit. Don't view them like a prime cut of meat.

RE: Post ur age

A couple of years ago I was 40. Now suddenly I turned 71! I still feel 50 and am holding my own. Do what I did then, just slower. Oh, dont climb trees anymore. I look, hmmm...think..hmm...why bother. Too much work for nothing. I was up on my roof yesterday tho.
The question for the ages...why dont we think we are as old as we are?

RE: Covid UK

Covid is doing what viruses do..mutate to survive. I want to see how the US does since all the crawlers are partying and traveling. 130,000 spectators jammed in to watch our big, Indie race. So lets see that spike. Or, not. Is covid over blown? Or not? I will use common sense and watch others.

Lets out PC, PC

You cant take a joke can you. This thread is supposed to be fun and silly.

RE: Hot Rods and Motorcycles

So far..Jefferson swap meet was..good turnout. And Automotion car show in the Dells. I didnt go but looked at videos. Not as many cars but still enough. I notice less 69 and older and more what I see as "new" cars. I do not wish to see a SUV or fart popper.
I have my 63 1/2 Ford convert for sale on craigs. So get a email. Call me. Nope. Ask questions thu craigs first. First ones were fine. Then came the.... Is it a 2 door or 4. OK..now I know you are a moron. I wrote back, never saw a 4 door convert..google the cars and see what they are. Needless to say, no more response form him.
So..kid who thinks he is going to be a gearhead? Tire kickers. Or just an idiot pretender?

Lets out PC, PC

Lets go overboard. Come up with something that needs to be banished cause SOMEONE might take offense.
No more Yankee Pot roast. Cant call it that anymore. Yankee is first off, an insult to northerners. Secondly, it is a term used during the Civil War. Pot has to go..insulting anyone over weight with a belly. Also refers to a drug that might be illegal. And a Roast is a gathering to make nasty jokes about someone, pick on them and be a bully.
Your turn.....

RE: Hey Hey were the Monkeys

Thanks for creeping me out! I used to have a crush on Mike when a teen. Dad gum aging process anyway.

RE: Rant of the day!!!

May I have more than one? Robo calls, rain and cold,and the main one. I am trying to sell my 63 1/2 Ford convertible on craigs. Finally got an email. Call me. Nope..write me here and ask questions. Last one..is it a 2 door or 4 door! I wrote back google convertibles!! ( why does convertible have an I and not an a?) I have a feeling this is either a kid, a tire kicker, or a moron.

RE: the 10 commandments

Oh you mean those obsolete ideals to be a good person? From what I see people today think all that matters is what they think and want to do. And all religions order rules to live a good life and then say unless it benefits the church or elite. Then it is fine to be a p*dophile or slaughter in wars in the name of that religion. We live in a world of ME.

RE: I'm off shortly to get the covid vaccine, its such a life saver, pun intended

Good luck. I will still skip it. It doesnt give immunity. Just hopes it keeps you out of hospital. CDC is yes/no/yes/no. J&J only half protecting. Talked to others who got Phizer. Seems like first doze tells body to watch for virus. Second gives virus to you. Everyone suffers for two days of heck after second.
Varients are unknown factor. So far OK. Late versions? People in US are confused. Wear masks? Dont have to? Like above, where is your ear tag. Honor system didnt work for masks so how will proof of vaccines?
I will stick to my normal recluse life. Wear mask if in a store. Wait to see if new spikes, kids catch and spread, break through cases and all the rest. Science says, life proves. Or not.

RE: Muslim vs Christ ?

No difference. Both religions preach love and kindness. And both say..unless one confronts someone who isnt of the one you follow..then kill them.

How dumb do they think we are anyway?

Funny thing. When I grew up, there were few allergies. Rare was the person who had one and it was for shellfish or strawberries. Farmers had hay fever and handled it anyway. Kids were told eat what is on your plate. And we did. Every kid ate peanut butter sandwiches. Now, the brains have come up with if you give a kid tiny amounts of peanut butter, over time..he loses his allergy.
There are few who violently react to things. I would like to hope they are NOT stupid and know where stuff may lurk. Anyone who reacts that badly to the fact that that allergen was in the same building has a real issue.
How many illnesses are invented by the medical industry and Big Pharma and people are TOLD they have to have it?
As far as the human race goes, the earth would be better off if we all perished and left it alone.
