Old people should stay old
I say this with regards to a conversation i had yesterday with my grandad.
Its very cold in Delhi (compared to singapore at least). So i have to wear some warm clothes. Yesterday I wore a blue shirt with a sweater on top. Now i didn't tuck my shirt in so it was showing below my sweater. So this is my conversation with my grandad:
Grandad: "Is this the new style? To have your underclothes showing underneath your cardigan?"
Rusty: "No, I just don't believe in tucking in my shirt."
Grandad: "Oh you young people ... this style is called something. I can't remember the name."
Rusty: "I don't think it has a name."
Grandad (jumps up): "I KNOW!! I REMEMBER!! ITS CALLED A THONG!! YOU'RE WEARING A THONG!!"
Rusty: "........ I think that your underwear not undershirt...."
Then later:
Old dying uncle: "I like your clothes with the undershirt sticking out. It looks young."
Grandad: "Yes, these young people are into all these kinds of things. I don't think I'll ever learn to like thongs like Suren does."
Rusty: "ummm....."
Old people ... please stay old. You were young once, you had your chance. Don't spoil our fun now. Thank you. Go back to your walking sticks and fake teeth.
