does getting old suck?

[Phatt Matt s]

So is anyone here a senior citizen and if so does it suck ass?

I personally find that as I get older I become more rational, less psychotic and delusional, more gentle and charitable, and less selfish.

Yes. I believe we get more 'sane' as it were, as we get older.
I have lost most of my urges to beat peoples faces into pulp when they insult me, for example.
This was a regrettable habit that I developed in what you Americans call 'grade school'.
I once said to my father, 'i've calmed down now'. He said 'yeah, but barely'.
I guess he could see it in my eyes, still.
I feel the problem has begun to lessen after my 35fifth birtday.

I sure don't miss the social side of adolescence, but I do miss my insane metabolism, whichhas been replaced by useless weight and occasional backaches.

Id prefer weight gain and arthritis over my previous psociopathic and masochistic tendancies and god complex.

I heard that, my friend.

Worst aspect, by far, is outliving great friends.

Generally, yes, though it does have its benefits.

There are good sides and bad sides to getting older. I don't like some of the changes I'm going through, but I don't think it sucks so much as it's just different.

The only thing worse than getting old is dying young.
