Grumpy Old Farts Clan! Actually, there is a clan like that, or at least was, in the age community. I don't know if they're still active.

*braces self, after remembering what happened last time he suggested this*

Yoda's Bitches.

The Ancients,
The Collection of Brittle Old Hips,
The Collection of.. *snore... snore*

EDIT: I need to learn how to read... I thought this was talking about people who have been SDNet denizens since the beginning. My bad.

But they're older than Yoda.

we would do that, if only you told us what "widom" means.

It's an adjective describing the gaping maw that was once your rectum after a curmudgeonly group of your elders and betters get done tearing you a new one.

Really? I kinda figured he was the oldest one around...

Oh well. They're all his bitch anyway. Like the rest of us.

Not a uncommon problem when you have diabetes.

And it would be fun to wander off somewhere and talk about actually seeing Star Wars on its first opening night, before you had to share a lineup with twits dressed in costumes made from black plastic piping and a bedsheet. Or how thankful I was when the eighties came around and people stopped wearing so much damn brown and orange in their ensembles.

More importantly....seeing Star Wars not "A New Hope", not Episode IV but Star Wars.

Considering the sheer abundance of "snot noses" around here I doubt there are a whole lot of people who saw The Empire Strikes Back or Return of the Jedi in the theater during their first runs either.

I say you should call it "The Old Folk's Home", which Kenobi called the Jedi Counsel in AOTC.

"The Old Ones"
"The Ancients"
"The Veterans"
"The Receding Hairlines"

Just a few suggestions. BTW, I'm 34 and there are no signs of physical dysfunction yet.

Only if you can catch me, which is quite hard considering you can't walk and all.

I would prefer Veterans or...something with pride, given I'll soon be inducted.

Dear god, I had one of THOSE since I was 25, and some of my contemporaries were even worse off. I tell you, losing hair really, really makes a guy feel crappy even if he knows full well there's nothing emasculating about it.

The Hearing Aids or The Eccentrics. So I had to throw in the mandatory culture reference, but...

I really like The Maiar. They were after all, guides of the development of middle earth. Hell (I think Gandalf was Maiar, right? Or a derivative of...) He lived for 800 lifetimes of men. Heh. Miar also sounds very sophisticated. If it comes down to a vote to actually establish a forum for this particular usergroup, I support it. Older folks need a haven where they can get together and chat without the ever present "Beeotches" and other slang that seems to burn their eyeballs. Damn whippersnappers. I'm 26 and I still...oh fuck it, who am I trying to kid, I'm 12. have been for the last 16 years.

And If you count the rerelease ... We were there TWICE.... 30 plus Rulz....

I really DO like that suggestion.

Gator and I remember it showing up at the matinee over in Humbolt (BTW there really isn't shit to do in Humbolt, but the movie theater was good.

yeah, I still remember back when it was just called Star Wars, the first time the camera panned down the starscape and the normal sized Sci-Fi space craft then you see the tip of the persuing vessel. And it was just WHOA!

37 no receding hairline a few gray hair here and there,and my little soldier is still standing proud.

Give it time, give it time...

NOW that is something with pride to it.

Oh yes, that is one of the memories that stuck with me, watching that SD start as a tiny point and grow... and grow... and grow........ And then the first appearance of Darth Vader, the only truly BLACK object on the screen. (Stormies were white, Rebels were gray)
