The Older I get the Less I Can Stand Teenagers!

Sure I did. A thirty year old dude talking about how bad 18 year olds are in the sack just seemed wierd to me, that's all.

So you'd call Al Copeland 'Super creepy'? And Mr. Hefner? Truth of the matter is, is that the majority of older guys think this way (but barely say it), it's just the rich/famous ones that get to live it.

I'm not sure where you got the "super" from, but I guess the answer to your question is yes. Hefner was Mr. cool, but grow up dude.

The word "super" came from the fact that instead of being in their thirties and doing said things, that they are/were in their 50 - 80's doing said things. As far as the "grow up dude" comment, I think it was a little uncalled for. I found that this thread was more of a comical type thread, instead of a serious debate thread, so I approached it as such. For the record, I in no way condone the behaviors of the two individuals I brought up earlier, the fact is that I actually can't stand people who act like that. That is people who think that they have free reign to do what ever they want no matter how morally wrong it is.

On a side note, others may percieve you as one who needs to "grow up" based on your positions in the legalize pot theatrics this board was going through a few weeks back because they may think that a thirty-something year old should be more mature than that. I don't feel this way towards you because I actually feel the same way as you do on that matter. I'm just saying that you shouldn't tell an idividual to "grow up" based on a couple posts in a thread, one deemed as somewhat comical at that.
 
Yall behave.Taco Bell & beer--- hahaha! Yeah, I hear what you're saying, Jonesy. Irresponsibility does rock. But for one thing, I've been working since I was 14, so that's different for me. And the jobs I had back then were certainly crappier. Today's jobs-- one of which, I do only because I'm good enough at it that people wont let me quit, both rock. I dont actually work that much, either. I do miss the 30 inch waistline, and never having heartburn. I dont know, but I feel more attractive and interesting now. Hell of a lot smarter!

And you know, I can have Tacos & beer any time I want, or lobster, or like last night--- Jack Daniels. I can go to Disneyland or Vegas whenever, and I have SEASON SAINTS TICKETS!!!

Back then, my biggest want was a huge stereo, which I have enough cash in my pocket to just walk in and buy tonight, but now, I dont want it. Thats the other great thing about age--- I am much easier to entertain. Sat with my wife on a porch swing Sat. nite, and looked at stars. Had a blast.

So, yeah, the memories are fun, but this old thing is actually way better, more fun, and much easier, and my relationship with God is good. I worry about little.

And while that "17" yr old would be illegal & wrong for me, my wife looks like a cheerleader, (she specifically likes maturity in a guy) (and no, I didnt leave anyone for her), . . . and I dont have a piece of work car, or milkcrates for furniture. Its also nice knowing where I'm gonna sleep tonight.

Good thread, Optimus! . . . No one who dresses up like a robot at the Superdome can ever be a "fuddy-duddy."


Good post, Mike...thanks for cheering me up after getting depressed over the "Body Measurements - How do you and your mate match up?" thread :covri: You, Joe, Drew and I are all around that same stage of life and yes, the "old" thing is just fine, minus the slower metabolism. :D I care a lot less about what other people think than I did years ago; making my family and myself happy is more important. BTW, I'm avoiding work right now, listening to Q-93 with your traffic reports mixed in, and thinking that we need to plan the draft get-together.

Teenagers....like 'em just fine, but without the attitude that I know nothing. I have no problem with them thinking they know it all, as long as they don't treat me like I'm stupid. And the pants hanging down to their knees with underwear showing...I truly don't care much about what teens wear and can rationalize the appeal of most styles, but that particular style drives me nuts. It cannot possibly be comfortable, and looks horrid. There, I'm officially a fuddy-duddy.

You wanna go running down Westheimer with me? It's about to get horribly hot, which is the right time to lose those pounds, and get firm. I wont make you chew any of my tobacco, and you can finish up by shopping in the Galleria.

btw, That sure is one mighty fine picture of US, isnt it (on your signature pic)?

I am a better long distance runner than I was as a teenager, even though I ran the mile in school.

WOW, I can't believe you slammed me that bad. Man, when I said grow up, I meant HEFNER, NOT YOU!!!! I am a pretty respectful poster around here, I think that a few folks around here could attest to that. If I ruffled your feathers, I sincerely apologize.

This however, would be an entirely different thread, and I don't see the relevance to this thread. Thanks for bringing it up though! :9:

Cool then, man I apologize as well. I thought it was directed at me, but I feel like crap now for shooting back! Sorry, I'm in idiot sometimes!
 
I am about to turn 28, and I really don't like tolerating any teenagers or guys in their early 20's. The are so damn lazy, know everything without knowing anything, and want you to do everything for them, and get ****** if you try to teach them something you learned from experience. I just wish I had a "get out of jail free" card so that the next time at work one of these little sob's bows up to me, I can knock their scrawny little heads off and let them feel what 260lbs of fist up their head really feels like so they will no longer be disillusioned. Im normally laid back, and have no ego or mancard that will provoke me into making a scene. Not much you can say or do will make me that mad, but these littles ##*$*$* do it enough repeadedly to make me say they have crossed a line and someone is going to be made example of.

Its all good, Claw, there are plenty of hostile posters, so normally you wouldnt be out of line. Thorin's just not one of them, although he gets flamed sometimes because he loves America and God.

28? Wow. I used to be 28.
... I can knock their scrawny little heads off and let them feel what 260lbs of fist up their head really feels like so they will no longer be disillusioned.
Remind me not to tick you off, PJ. See, you prove my theory about the internet and hostile posters. You're actually in shape, have likely seen numerous attractive women nekkid (free of charge), and have an active social life, thus you are nice on the internet.

We Houston posters mostly see each other in person, so the trollism is pretty minimal. Not that we're all normal, either... ho ho ho..... Everybody be excellent to each other--- we are rooting for the same team, and I think we all love Louisiana too. Much in common.

I have a way better vehicle than I ever did as a teenager.

Wow, easy there Junior.
 
My 15 year old says stuff to me that, had I uttered those statements, would have ended my life. That's why being back at work is joyful; I can stay away from someone's protracted "development" without running the risk of his bodily injury.

My teenaged period never existed. I had two perennial teenagers as parents and spent much time living with their maturity issues, not to mention lack of money, mobility, and a homesetting cross between "The Simpsons" and "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf". The statute of limitations obviously hasn't expired yet, because today I have one parent and one child who are maturationally interchangable.
