The old biddies are obsessed with the (insert rhyming word for boobs that starts with a t)

Tubes? Rhyming word for boobs with a t?

I still can't figure out what you mean. I know a word that starts with t but doesn't rhyme with the word boobs.

Duh, just figured out you meant rhymes with biddies. Holy cow I'm dense. I shouldn't even post this and reveal my stupidity but I can't stop laughing at myself.

Years ago when I worked at a care center, there was a lil ol lady that had a chair alarm in her wheelchair. Every time she tried to stand up, the alarm would go off, "Beep beep beep..."

After about the 3rd time the alarm beeped, she loudly exclaimed, "Well if somebody would just feed those damn birds, maybe they'd shut the hell up!" :)

A few months ago I had a septuagenarian send her spouse of 50+ years out in the hall while she disrobed and was placed on telemetry. "He's never seen me naked." Welp, okay.

They have seven children.

I guess he "felt" his way?
