Young people have always hated old people and always will. You're not the first and you won't be the last. If you live long enough to be old, young people will hate you too and for exactly the same reason you did. That's just how time works.
The sort of thing said by someone who is too naive to understand the value of wisdom or that it is wildly hard to find on line and too young to realize it is wisdom that tells you what knowledge is valuable.
Most are sane, and nearly all who survive carry more wisdom than the young. Wisdom is given, earned through tragedy and struggle, or the result of age.
You should read King Lear by Shakespeare. It's well arguable that wisdom is not the product of age or tragedy, but is the result of foolishness and hindsight.
Well I'm an idiot but I know that if I don't get myself killed or get a terminal illness I'll live to at least 70
You know that? Damn, what's your secret?
I told you I was an idiot
Lol fair enough
Confidence.

Yeah but not all (or even most) older people and seniors are smart, sane, and wise.

Agree - wisdom is gained by being knocked down by life and learning from it.

I read that in Yoda's voice
How about respecting everyone unless they give you a reason not to…?
You can be civil to all people but respect is earned, not automatically given.
Yup
But there is a difference between respect and manners.
Just cus your smarter then someone that doesn't mean you shouldn't respect him
Actually, if you're smart, you are respectful.
Ding ding ding!!!
Respect has never meant you have to agree, or even like each other. Just be civil. It costs you nothing.

Pretty sure it's Then
You may have a point. Darwin has not been able to do his job.
Lmao Darwin isnt thinning the herd like the good ol days
As an atheist, I pray to Darwin every day that he may cull the weak as he did in days of old.
jacob seed culled the weak but he wasn't atheist, in fact he was the opposite
go slap your grandma then
This is why an old man was pushed off his feet by police.
They pushed him off his feet because they are police, not because they are younger than him.
Bullies can be any age
Still true enough that they had to reproduce though, at least in the case of ancestors rather than "random old dude on the street"
Damn ... truth bombs
Is this question a joke?
