I was born in 1953. In 2001, I went into a fast food restaurant and asked for the senior discount. The youngster said, “You have to be 55 or over.” I pulled out my ID and said, “Look — I was born in 1953. This is 2001. Do the math!”
I got the discount. Sad…but I felt no guilt at all.

I’ve seen college students who could not divide 1000 by 10 without using a calculator. :-(

…um, why is everyone looking away uncomfortably…?
