Old suggests you have life experience, but OLD means you won't shut up
about it. Old brings with it a more relaxed pace of life, while OLD is
synonymous with slow driving (and even slower digestion). Old comes with
a quiet confidence envied by youth, but OLD comes with bitterness and a
rigidity that youth cannot rightfully stand. While growing old is a
privilege, becoming OLD is optional. If you don't mind being "Okay,
Karen-ed" by Millennials and Gen Zs, that's totally your choice. But if
want to update some of your long-held beliefs (and possibly your
even-longer-held hairstyle) to become more relevant, How Not to Be Old
will clue you in on how a slight adjustment in behavior and thinking
will help you more fully connect with today's world... and the people
who will be in charge of your nursing home one day.
A humorous how-to guide on aging gracefully... or not. Perfect gift
for boomers, GenX, & millennials looking to find the funny in getting
older.
