Recently I have started to notice that old people get benefits in life that us younger folk do not. For instance my dad and I went to Wendy's the other day and because he was over 60 he got 10% off his meal. I am 23 years old I want 10 % off my meal. Does Wendy's think that old people are going to eat that much less that they deserve a discount. Or is it that they thoroughly enjoy the presence of old people so much that they give them a discount.
Another instance is the early bird special. Often happens around 5-6 am. Old people can cruise on through since they have already been up for an hour or two and get a 2 dollar breakfast. Now I realize this is not the busiest time of day so the companies might want to get these oldies in their seats. But damn if i get up at 5 am and want fucking breakfast at I Hop or Denny's or something they best be giving me that deal as well. I mean hell I earned that discount. I was probably up till 3am and only got 2 hours of sleep and just felt like wandering to get some food. As where an old person went to bed at 6:45pm and got 10 hours of sleep. They did not earn this discount at all. They got a great nights sleep. They had time to get up. Shower, put there teeth in, fix their toupee and they still get a discount? What kind of society is this.
Wow I just learned of a senior discount that takes the cake............................ An EZ pass turnpike discount for seniors. This is the most outlandish thing I have ever heard. First of all this discount starts at age 65. This is an age where old people need to start cutting down on driving for the rest of our safety. Not only is this unfair, it just encourages our roads to be less safe to drive on. I do not want to drive down the turnpike and have 4 lanes full of old people who said hell were going to travel more now because we got our EZ pass discount. I can just imagine people going 60 miles an hour and then not looking slowing to 50 to change lanes and cutting people off left and right. This sounds like a hell on earth, and I for one can not be a part of this.
Someone soon needs to take a stand against these discounts for the old folk of our nation. Do yourself a favor a google simply " senior citizen discounts" and look at some of this shit. Some of the sites have a mind boggling amount of deals for the "old".
I am young and don't have money, and the amount of discounts I receive as a student does not compare at all to that as an old person.
It probably hurts companies to give these discounts to seniors only. I do not want to be in a place or restaurant that is overtaken by old people. Don't get me wrong this articile is not about bashing the old people themselves, its about the fact that old people are profiting from being old, while us younger folk are spending more money so old people can get discounts. Its just not right!
Super Senior Discount (80+)-->Super Gold New England Pass ( Sunday River's season pass)....

ReplyDeleteI believe the term would be raging on old people not "raging about old people". But hey whatever you are welcome to your opinion
