Advice from Old PeopleSometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.
Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.
Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

Today in the carI was thinking about why is it that tiny animals (as in baby animals) are considered so much nicer than grown up ones?
I see a tiny deer, all wobbly legs and i'm all "Aaaaaaaw! Itsch a widdy wickle deerkin!"
I see an adult deer and I think "Mmmmmmm, venison casserole"
I see a little puppy and I go "Wook at da widdle puppypuppypuppypuppypuppy! ITsch SOOOOOOOOO cute!", but adult dogs are just "nice dog" and on with my day.
And small birds are the same, if I see a row of ducklings it's all I can do to stop myself from picking them all up and cuddling them and rubbing my face on their cute little downy fluffeh-ness, but with a grown Mallard I just think "If I had enough gaffa tape that would make a cracking sex toy".
