BK001 took some of my good thunder - - she has a number of good ones. But for me - - it’s when you would rather play nine holes of golf instead of eighteen.

At 80 I am now probably the oldest male in our CYV community. Thoroughly enjoyed BK001s post . Much truth. Wife (of 57 yrs) and I still play golf together about 4 times a week(9 holes) an I sneak in 18 about once a week. New acquaintances are often surprised when we speak about how long we have been married or how old our kids are. Almost all of those with whom we play are 8-10 years younger. Life is great in The Villages. Don't mind being called old man by friends(I am) and being the subject of other typical old age jokes. They make me chuckle as did the OP here. Now , the other side of the story. I particularly resent being referred to by a few younger people as "young man" . Happens frequently, and is IMHO quite patronizing. Sometimes it is in a mocking tone. Most older men that I have spoken to generally agree that it doesn't endear them to the greeter.

For Villagers:
52. When you color coordinate your shirt to your baseball cap. 53. When you forget to plug your golf cart charger in. 54. When you realize that your favorite Village line dance is the 'shuffle.' 55. When you get winded at bunko. 56. When your server has to turn down her hearing aid to hear your order. 57. When your grandkids favorite game is find grandpas glasses. 58. When getting lost is no longer an adventure. 59. When a walk once around the Square equals a mile. 60. When you always order the soup of the day. 61. When you realize you can cheat on steps for your Fitbit by waving. 62. When you ask where is the balcony at Katie Belles. 63. When you forget the one you just made up before you could type it.
