Default Who says seniors don't know texting?

Though I'd pass these around to folks who's older than me.

Why, they've created their own codes:


• ATD - At the Doctor's
• BFF - Best Friends Funeral
• BTW - Bring the Wheelchair
• BYOT - Bring Your Own Teeth
• CBM - Covered by Medicare
• CUATSC - See You at the Senior Center
• DWI - Driving While Incontinent
• FWBB - Friend with Beta Blockers
• FWIW - Forgot Where I Was
• FYI - Found Your Insulin
• GGPBL - Gotta Go, Pacemaker Battery Low
• GHA - Got Heartburn Again
• HGBM - Had Good Bowel Movement
• IMHO - Is My Hearing-Aid On?
• LMDO - Laughing My Dentures Out
• LOL - Living on Lipitor
• LWO - Lawrence Welk's On
• OMMR - On My Massage Recliner
• OMSG - Oh My! Sorry, Gas
• ROFL..CGU - Rolling on the Floor Laughing...Can't get Up!
• TOT - Texting on Toilet
• TTYL - Talk to You Louder
• WAITT - Who Am I Talking To?
• WTFA - Wet the Furniture Again
• WTP - Where're the Prunes
• WWNO - Walker Wheels Need Oil


Hope these help. GGLKI (Gotta Go, Laxative Kicking in!)

I was LMAO until I HGBM!

Warning! - NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

Here are some good things that happen as you grow older
Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off!
Kidnappers are not very interested in you.
It's harder and harder for sexual harassment charges to stick.
If you've never smoked, you can start now and it won't have time to hurt you.
Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them, either!!
Your eyes won't get much worse.
Things you buy now don't have time to wear out.
And, one of the best advantages of being old.
"I've seen it all, done it all, heard it all. I just can't remember it all!"

Default 3 tips for seniors...

  1. Never pass the opportunity to go the can
  2. Never trust a fart
  3. Use herbal tea with V**gra. You'll sleep like a baby but won't fall off the bed.
Any other ideas?

What worries me is the number of ticks I can put against Jim's list.


Nah, it's not quite that bad, but it's getting close

My favourite rule, now that I'm older, is....
If you can't be a good example to your kids, be a terrible warning!
