    Those texts are NOT great!! Tasteless and disrespectful of the elderly in my opinion.:crying2:

    They are sorta cute... but these are the sort of jokes maybe an elderly person can get away with forwarding on to their Red Hat Society ladies, just like only minorities can make jokes about themselves, or only African Americans can use the N word... I think there was even a Seinfeld episode about it, only dentists can make dentist jokes! (Anti-dentite!)

    some people really need to get a sense of humor- i thought it was cute :)

    How ironic... when I was much younger I used to joke about religions, ethnicities, disabilities... and I was regarded poorly for that. I have since matured and changed my ways, and now look. I'm being chided for not yukking this up. I just can't win.

    Agreed! We need to stop taking ourselves so seriously all the time.

    Made me chuckle! I'm sorry, but I just don't see how this is offensive. Someone somewhere will ALWAYS find something to be offended by......we can't stop getting older, so we might as well laugh about it. I know the current generation of increasingly elderly folks has a lot of individuals that could benefit from lightening up about getting older....just saying......

    I'm sure the residents would laugh at some of these things too.

    You know....when you get old, you don't lose your sense of humor.

    We have just become a universe full of people looking for a reason to be offended. It just amazes me.

    Live - Laugh - Love. At best we can all only hope that we are so fortunate to live long enough to be considered a senior citizen. The alternative sucks.
