| Help! I"m getting *old* person mail. |
|
AARP cards with my name on them. Senior "death benefit" solicitations. Kiplinger personal finance newsletter offers.
I'm only 43!
Can't you bastards wait 7 more years?

| 2. The AARP card with my name on it was just *too* much. |
|
I thought about taking it to Golden Corral and asking for my senior citizen discount. But then, I'd have to eat at Golden Corral. :P

| 5. I keep a bunch of those cards in my car door pocket |
|
They come in handy on the occasional frosty morning when I have to scrape frost off of the windshield and windows. I don't like to throw anything away until it has served a purpose. :)

| 7. You ain't seen nothin' yet-When I retired at 59, I started getting |
|
"coupon specials" for Depends adult diapers and for several power chairs...and a yearly calendar from the neighborhood funeral home.
I have to tell you that shit didn't put a smile on my face.
You can either throw them away or mail them to someone else...;)

| 12. I was getting their mailings when I was 20. |
|
At the time I thought the idea of retiring while I was still in college sounded pretty interesting.

| 11. Do you know what's worse than unsolicited AARP cards? |
|
Funeral home brochures mailed to your home address, with your name on them! Jerks. I'm not that old and not ready to plan my own exit party.

Every day I get mail about Medicare supplements.
I get unsolicited phone calls about Medicare supplements.
How does every insurance company know my birthday?

| 16. I haven't gotten any offers to subscribe to Penthouse of Playboy in awhile. |
|
Got my first one when I was about 13. My mom wouldn't let me subscribe. She had some issues about that so I remained stuck with looking at the bra and panty section of the Sears catalog for a few more years.
