Stereotypical old guy: Get off my lawn! Young whippershnapers! My hip! My back! *shakes cane menacingly*(not)
And my personal favorite: I've fallen and I can't get up! (lifealert commercial)
This is all that stuff you see on TV, or hear from other kids who have seen or heard this through the media. Or perhaps some elderly person actually yelled something like that at you, or some kid you know. Well, that's not gonna be me. I'm gonna be the one blasting 'Rockstar' by Nickelback with the base turned all the way up in the nursing home. I'm gonna be the one racing the other nursing home occupants to the elevator in my wheelchair. I'm gonna be the one up at 2:00a.m. jumping on my bed with a grape soda in my hand. NO ONE CAN STOP ME FROM JUMPING ON THE BED!! (Except maybe the nurses that work at the home, but let's not put a damper on high spirits)
I'll be riding to work right before I retire on a skateboard wearing $225 BAPES(Bathing Apes). And when I get into my 70s or 80s, I'm gonna ride that skateboard down the hallways of wherever I'm situated! I'll tell my grand-neices and nephews or grandchildren, Owl City, Train, Maroon 5, Nightwish, and Boys like Girls, were the bands I listened to when I was young. That was back when music was alive!
Anyways, that's what I have to say on aging and nursing homes. Thank you for listening,

P.S. I know this is kind of a strange rant for a teenager to go off on, but I saw the picture that I posted. This was me: YES!
