Of Coots And Whippersnappers

[Sock Puppet]

Okay, so we've got a couple of old folks, to wit: :oldman: :grandma: :grandpa: :unoldflame:

However, none of those are cranky & cantankerous. These three are getting there ... :oldpoke: :kids2day: :geezer:

... but, while I appreciate the violent retribution of the first two and the expression of the third, none of them are shouting. We need a "get off my lawn" smiley to convey that sense of impotent rage at the unforgiveable offense others commit by being younger than us. Especially those that point it out. :glare:

Something in that bombastic King Lear vein: "And thou, all-shaking thunder, strike flat the thick rotundity of the world. And get me some prune juice while you're up."

I scored this from one quickdraw (http://quickdraw.deviantart.com/) at dA: :shakecane:. Is that the vibe you're going for, Sock?

Hurry up and die of old age so we teenagers can get all your stuff :D

[Crumb]

That's good, liv. I bet sock'll like it.

[Shelli]

Yeah, that's great. :thumbup:

Somebody get Grandpa Sock up from his nap so he can make a ruling. Change the channel on his golf game, that usually startles him out of it.

Bumping now that Sock is back after days of ignoration. :glare:

[Shelli]

:giggle: @ what Ensign said and "ignoration"

[Sock Puppet]

Yes, I love it. That's just the stuff, and I find that smiley way more invigorating than a double-shot of Geritol. :clap:

Don't make me shake this cane harder, young'un! 'Cause I WILL!
