I can imagine that you read that with disgust!

However some old people think they can push people and its ok!

Was talking to my friend next to a wall in the shopping centre today, she is 35 weeks PG, and an old fella with a walking stick comes up behind her, and pushes her out of the way and says 'you are in the way' So I said loud enough 'whats wrong with going around?!' - we weren't blocking the way he just decided he wanted to go between us and the wall

Then he mumbled something about blocking the way...there was about 15 feet spare he could have walked - so my friend shouted 'grumpy old person'

What a miserable old git!

I think your friend was very polite, you know it's only a few badduns that give the rest of them a bad name!

I know completely what you mean hun, people are so quick to judge the young ones, but the old people are sometimes just as bad. I had an old lady try and push infront of me on the conveyor belt at Tesco when I was about 18, needless to say I didn't say anything but I thought it just goes to show that some old people are damn right rude! xx

It is!

Funny thing was while we were talking a cleaner was behind us with one of those big sweeper brushes and another old fella came the other way and stopped in front of the cleaner man and just frowned at him for ages til he had moved along....hmmm ever though of going round the cleaner?!

Can I come? I want to push an old person too!

I have had nothing but rude old people pushing me about through my whole pregnancy! They think that because they are 'old' that they should be allowed to get away with it.

I couldnt care less how old or young somebody is... bad manners, is bad manners and I dont see why we should make exceptions for the old cranky ones!

Phew... rant over!

I agree!!! Many many years ago I worked in our local Somerfield and it was guaranteed the rude people were the old people! Dont get me wrong I know there are some absolutely lovely, polite old people out there but the ones that are rude are awful!

I also think your friend was very polite, I dont think I would of been xx

If you are allowed to push an old person..than I'm allowed to back my vehicle into their vehicle and shove them into a ditch! Old ppl should never drive! xxx

this is one of mu pet hates!!!

the other day in asda we were sat at a table, lewis happily in a highchair eating, a lady with a walking frame at the table behind....this old woman comes walking up and actually pushes lewis, highchair and all, so she can get through, no excuse me or anything!!! she then went and stood over some guys shoulder glaring at him until he moved off his table, even though there were 10 other tables free

i hate how old people whinge about the younger generation being rude, yet they're the biggest lot of rude ass fekers ever!!!

LOL! I swear there are a tribe of ancient ones, that make it there personal mission to live out the remainder of their years to be assholes! Am seriously thinking of joining this tribe when the time comes!

oh totally agree. I actually find it a total pleasure when you speak to a nice old person.

your friend was far too polite

ooh you just reminded me to tell adam this story too.
last week in tesco an old lady on a scooter rammed my trolley with the girls in, she said sorry........ then said it was my fault for not moving beacuse i was looking at some books, i told her saying excuse me would have done the same job which ended in an arguement in which her grandaughter called me an ignorant biatch and said i had got to have seen her out of the corner of my eye and was just being rude.....erm of course thats it i just wanted you to ram my trolley with my 6 week old baby in, silly me!!!!


grrrrrrrrrr old people can be so bloody rude!
rant over!

I've never known anyone tobe as rude as old people! Fair enough I think old people deserve respect just as I think anyonedoes but being old does not excuse having bad manners and being rude to people!

OHHHH mmyyy word gemz, what a rude old bint, sorry to call names at an old person but honestly I owuld have called her a bint for that!

I cant believe how rude some old people have been to you guys!

I was in Tesco about to reverse out of a space recently and an old lady cut through the parked cars to get to her car. She couldnt fit her trolley through the space between me and the car next to me... so she the just tilted my wing mirror & then folded it right in, smiled at me and walked on. I dont think she was all there

some old people are so rude, when i wasi think about 38 weeks preg i was waiting outside debenhams in town for my sil to meet me, when this old man came up to me right in my face pointed his finger in my face and said ' its people like you having babies and ruining our society!!'
i was so shocked and peed off that i told him to basically do one!! i mean he looked about 80! i know i look young but how friggin rude!!

you would expect some oaps to have a bit more respect for others but sometimes i think they think there better than everyone!!

pmsl!
