Does the elderly=manners?
My wife and I took my dad and son to the local pizza buffet for lunch. No problem there right? Well, to be honest, this has happened before. We have been to the pizza buffet a couple times before, it's a good place to eat. Anyway, I get a couple slices from the buffet hotplate/counter, then my wife goes up to the counter while I grab some napkins and straws. I see her out of the corner of my eye and here and old voice say, "pardon me" and I turn to see the overweight sickeningly slob of an old man push his shit-filled Depends-wearing self in front of my wife with his grandchild. I put down my napkins and straws at the table and walk-up to the counter and in a purposely loud voice say, "Did that old man push in front of you?", my wife says, "Yes.". I believe my wife, she's a very honorable person. The elderly sack of shit prolly didn't hear me because he had 2 things on his mind: 1. Eating as much pizza he can thus filling his diaper with more hot shit and 2. Looking through the hole he made in the wall of his bathroom at his grandchild while he/she undresses to use the toilet.
Here's my beef and it's come-up before (afterall this is real-life and not everybody's perfect and courteous and lives by the Golden Rule) where I have been surprised by the actions of others. This is an elderly gentlemen from a time when the word 'gentlemen' meant something, a man who is entrusted to pass along good manners and etiquette to subsequent generations, a man who had the future of the world by his side as rudely pushed his way passed a woman just to be the first to get a piece of food from a bountiful quantity of food. There is and, practically speaking, always will be enough for everyone, but he saw fit to be the first at the cost of a stranger and a young woman. It will be surprising if that child at his side doesn't grow up to be a money grubbing, Hummer driving son of a bitch in their later years. Thank you grandpa.
It would certainly not be against my better judgment to take that old man outside and kick his ass, then make him eat his Depends.
