Theres no maybe about it! The elderly should have saved for retirement! not work and spend then when your back aches and your eyes go blurry expect to live of anothers work for the next 20 years!

They should have superannuation, instead they say they don't have any because they stayed at home raising the children. Guess they shouldn't have had so many kids then!

I remember reading something in the paper years ago. An old lady wrote in to the letters page complainnig about her pension. She claimed she needed more money because she couldn't survive and 'could only afford to have a flutter on the pokies two or three nights a week'.

She actually said that, and I thought how stupid she was, and wondered if even she realised how stupid that comment was!!!!

The thing that I don't get...oldies complain about not having enough money to buy food, but they sure have enough money to come to Macca's three or four days a week and pig out on cheeseburgers and Big Macs!

And don't get me started on those blasted seniors cards...seriously, I want to tear them up and flush them down the dunny.

I use the 'office' as well. Also, crapper, head, and latrine.




Cigs smell nasty, and girls who smoke them taste like ash trays.
