    No, they type too slowly and smell of wee.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 199 ✭✭sub-x


    Old people are mostly afraid of computers anyway,as we speak theres a little old lady in Mayo who tried to go online and now thinks the current world economic crisis is her fault.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,391 ✭✭✭Captain-America


    Of course not. The elderly should be disposed of after the age of seventy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,015 ✭✭✭CreepingDeath


    Of course not. The elderly should be disposed of after the age of seventy.

    If it's AH, then over 15.

    What's all this ageism about? What is boards going to do about it? We have a 'Thanks' button, and a 'Report' button. As a card carrying old person, I demand a "Nuke the OP" button.


    Boards developers: get to it!
