If you hang around with old people long enough, you quickly realize that they have a gift for complaining. It doesn’t matter whether they have a legitimate complaint or not, they will try to compete with each other to see who can complain the most.
It’s a lot of fun to stand back and watch this happening but it’s not quite as much fun when we are in the middle of the conversation. Suddenly, everything we say seems perfectly legitimate and we may even have some legitimate complaints, especially as we are reaching our golden years.
It doesn’t matter if you are there or not, you are going to find the following jokes hilarious. It’s about some friends who were standing around complaining but one of them shut the rest down in the best way possible.
“Sixty is the worst age to be,” said the 60-year-old. “You always feel like you have to pee.
“You always feel like you have to pee. And most of the time, you stand at the toilet and nothing comes out!”
“Ah, that’s nothin’,” said the 70-year-old. “When you’re seventy, you can’t even crap anymore. You take laxatives, then you sit on the toilet all day waiting for the arrival and nothin’ comes out!”
“Actually,” said the 80-year-old, “80 is the worst age of all!”
“Do you have trouble peeing too?” asked the 60-year-old.
“No, not really. I pee every morning at 6:00. I pee like a racehorse on a flat rock; no problem at all.”
“Do you have trouble crapping?” asked the 70-year-old.
“No, I crap every morning at 6:30 and no laxatives, no waiting needed, come 6.30 it’s all out there by itself loose and fine.”
With great exasperation, the 60-year-old said, “Let me get this straight. You pee every morning at 6:00 and crap every morning at 6:30.
So what’s so tough about being 80?” “I don’t wake up until 7:00!”
