i don't think you're ageist but, you know, i live in 'merica, and culturally kinda so do you (same shit different accent), and just the other day i was making fun of an old man strangling his hot younger wife not just for being an abusive nastard but for being old.
some somali woman told me once it's okay to make fun of old people because we're all getting old-- whereas it's unfair to make fun of peole with genetic defects, etc.
now the point i was trying to make (i suppose there was a point) is that time goes by for everyone but you have a choice to make it your enemy or your ally-- those who want to be perpetual adolescents are in a losing war.

no, it's actually more of the same. "weird" = good.
