Thews40 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 So I took the day off from work and went to buy some new golf attire at Kohls. I'm in a good mood mostly because my daughter was released from the hospital yesterday . Whilst I’m checking out, the young woman behind the counter asks me if I qualified for a seniors discount . Taken back by the mere possibility that I could possibly come close to this (I assume the cutoff is 55), I said, “No” and looked at her as if she had just injected some black tar heroin to even ask. Don't ya think if I did qualify I'd be the one to offer up that info? I’ll be 46 next month, and when I buy beer at the local gas station they always card me… sign says, “We card everyone under 40” and I must admit I enjoy the whole carding experience . In retrospect, I should have answered Yes! And had her card me to prove it. …life’s missed opportunities . Question for the old farts... does it all go downhill from here?

Riffraff Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I'm the opposite, I look 5 years younger than I am. Kind of sucked when I was 4, I still looked like sperm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riffraff Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Question for the old farts... does it all go downhill from here? But the good news is that you go faster when it's downhill. Err... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMD Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Don't worry about it. My wife came back from the store upset that she was asked the same question - AT KOHLS. I think they are just trying to save everyone money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taken back by the mere possibility that I could possibly come close to this (I assume the cutoff is 55), I just checked and it seems the cut-off age is 62. I'm not joking.

Cunning Linguist Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 My wife and i were out to dinner a few weeks ago and the server asked only to see my ID. I'm 43 and she's 41. Needless to say, that didn't help her tip since my wife bought dinner If looks could kill, that waitress would be toes up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
