I got my first “Join AARP” offer in the mail at age 18. Now that I’m 64, I get one perhaps every month, usually with some “free offer” for some cheap, cheesy item I don’t want.
I didn’t think it was that traumatic of an experience. But I considered all the good things that came with it, one being retired. I also get a discount with my phone provider.
I was in my late 40s when AARP and other retirement groups started sending literature to me, I shall not accept such until I am 65. I am Generation X, Like Susan B. Anthony I shall not call myself old because I shall be young until the Crack of Doom!

OK, fill me in here, this makes no sense to me. Might help if I knew what an AARP card was…

I hate to see what would happen when he gets a bottle of Scope in the mail.

Since I turned 40, I have received mail from ARRP everyday! I am now 80 and I still get this most annoying garbage mail everyday!
I would not join ARRP if they gave me free ins. That’s how bad I loath this company. The same goes for the ads..two of the same ads in a row…
LET ME AT EM‼️

We got them, but haven’t renewed in over a decade.

This is what happens when people internalize the idea that old is bad. Eventually, they turn into what they have been mocking.

In Canada it’s CARP. Appropriate, because that’s all they seem to do about most things. :(
