I just learned of a benefit to aging and I'm 100% overusing it. When you're around young people, they do things for you! You ask. They get up and do it. Would you be a dear and get me _______ . They'll do it! I'm only 58 and I can get those dummies to do anything.

@fesshole I have friends in their 70s and 80s who regularly go to galleries and gardens and ‘accidentally’ wander into ticketed areas. Sometimes they’re accosted, in which case they feign ‘oh sorry, we didn’t realise’ and overplay the doddery old dear act before paying their way, but don’t be fooled, they absolutely know what they’re doing! I can’t get away with it just yet (I’m 47), but I’ll be learning from the best until I can 😆

@fesshole Two possible corollaries:
1. You look much older.
2. You're crying wolf, and will eventually understand the moral of that old story.
