Looks more like, "Are you a stereotypical murican?" rather than an old person.
Hmmm... that's a less than enjoyable comparison for the state of my country, but it is apt nonetheless...
I'm jus saying, it's you who has basically said that the common stereotype of Americans is easily mistook with fuddy-duddy-ness, not me. :blob_joy: Because, I promise you, I only chose the sentences which describe narrow-minded, stubborn, brash individuals who complain about the state of things constantly compared to the past, and match the traits of a fuddy-duddy the most . I took it from people both younger and older than me, ones that I know in my life. I literally redacted the stuff that is associated with politics to avoid stereotyped politics of America.

You mentioned lawns. Carefully tend to your lawn a whole bunch? Keep it neat and trimmed all the time with the care of an expert gardener? Who the fuck has lawns beside murican people? What narrow-minded or stubborn or whatever. LAWNS. You mentioned LAWNS. The only place that has LAWNS is The United States America.

To quote someone who is very smart:
:blob_aww: :blob_aww: :blob_aww: Awww, thanks! My incongruence between Sailus and my prior statement which you quoted aside, my grandpa is still the ultimate fuddy-duddy. He is a solid 33 out of 33 for the first list, and a 25 out of 32 for the second list!:blob_joy::blob_joy::blob_joy: Love him so much though.

Nah, some of them have nothing to do with being old, like joints. But while joints is more of a meme, this "Do you truly think (rather than joking) that your country is on the way to ruin because 'insert reason(s)'?" has nothing to do with age.

  • Have you started more than three conversations in your life about how television is no longer good, because it's all 'insert reason' and agencies all 'do this'? Then I have some good news for you, *points finger so aggressively it nearly boops you on the nose* because you've just earned 3 ?
  • Constantly tired? 4 ?
  • Complaining about your joints once every one-two days? 4?. Though for those with preexisting conditions, that's a 0! *finger guns*
  • Do you believe there was a Golden Era of Music, and that music is in its bygone age? Is this age of music all ruined? Is what kids these days enjoy trash, whether you are younger than them or not? Here! Catch! *lobs 4 ? at you*
  • Have you started more than three conversations in your life about how video games are no longer good, because they're all 'insert reason' and agencies all 'do this'? Exact same question as the TV one, but with video games, and a 'yes' only gives you 2 ?.
  • I wonder... 8 or more jobs in your roster? Bonsai! *falls onto you, sitting on a stack of 2 ?*
  • Expect people to move out of your way while pushing an sparsely-filled grocery cart? Here, I have some wonderful stickers to you. Four, in fact. Whack! Whack! Whack! Whack! You now have 4 ? crisply slapped to your forehead. Ignore the red mitten-imprints on your face please!
  • For many of the times you go to get groceries, do you complain about inflation afterward? Well, while it is an oldie thing to do, inflation is happening, so here's 1 ? only
  • Bemoaning the replacement of the great stories of your childhood, or the works before your childhood more than twice? Are all of the stories (insert one of these words: childish, cringe, crude, trashy, smutty, [redacted to avoid conservative vs liberal arguments], [redacted for the same reason], [redacted for the same reason]. Here are 4 ?.
  • Do you truly think (rather than joking) that your country is on the way to ruin because 'insert reason(s)'? Depending on the country, you either get 5 ? or none for this.
I talk alot about why television is bad.
I'm most of the time out of breath for no reason or emotionally tired for may reasons.
I'm used to my joints being in pain.
I dislike the music of the old.
Talked about how video games once were better without this paytowin and paytoplay shit.
No jobs.
Moving out of the way of the shopping cart is a process I rarely see.
I complain about inflation.
I have forgotten most of the things I did as a child but it doesn't matter to me because I'm a disloyal bitch in many ways.
Thinking about why Germany is going to shit is far more common than thinking about how things can go in a good way.
