No. With age comes age.
A stupid person at age 20 is going to still be the same stupid person at age 55 if they continue to believe in the same shit they've believed in for their entire life.

In other words, you have to do something with your mind in order to gain wiasdom... sitting around to 35 years believing the same shit is not going to make you wise... just old.

exactly. thanks cosmo. aerial's comment "with age comes wisdom' is about as sensible as "respect your elders". I used to work with an old woman (when I was 19) who used to tell me that all the time. I said "you don't gain respect just because you're old-you gain respect by the way you act".

What I hear you saying is....if people do not believe what you believe that is what makes them stupid....Now That is Stupid!

Sounds like a disrespectful 19 year old ......are you a hater of the elderly?
Why do you think parents raise children....they are older and wiser.

parents raise children cause they gave birth to them(well the mother anyway) and therefore are responsible for their ongoing existence until they reach the age of legal maturation. nothing necessarily to do with wisdom tho ill give you that theyre older.

and that's what she said. I'll give you the context to help you better understand.

we both worked in a restaurant. I was the baker. she was the dishwasher. neither of us were each others' boss. but she told me to do something that wasn't my job, it was hers, but she wanted to go for a smoke. I told her so. she got pissed off at me. I told her to shove it. she said "don't you know what 'respect your elders' means?". she thought for the simple reason that she was older than me that I had to bow to her every whim. it's bullshit. I'll listen to someone who is older and more experienced than me, but don't confuse "experience" with "wisdom". I've met a lot of fucking stupid old people.

hater of the elderly. good god.

Older and wiser comes from life experience. We all have those. And most of the people who find fault with others prejudices have bunch of their own including one towards those people.

Elderly-hater!

(add THAT to the "about the author" portion of your book )

Respect, like trust, is never a given with me. Both are earned over time.

Living, in and of itself, doesn't equate to a free-pass to either.

Life brings the possibility of collecting wisdom and knowledge...Age simply means you have had more of a possibility, it does not mean you took advantage of it.

*learning from life experience

For some reason, I thought of this scene from Seinfeld:

Agent: I know why we have reservations.

Jerry: I don't think you do. If you did, I'd have a car. See, you know how to
take the reservation, you just don't know how to *hold* the reservation and
that's really the most important part of the reservation, the holding. Anybody
can just take them.

It's the holding of the reservation!

Yup, earned is key here.

Wow I never knew the show Seinfeld was so deep guess you'll do fine in life being a fan who can quote it.
I love his stand up that's a favorite of ours.His presentation, funny dude. Fire one up and wet our pants laughing, of course I couldn't quote it.
Maybe the show is the same I never have watched it.

I was always told that quoting would get me far. So I AM doing fine in life, thanks!

The quote (courtesy of a quick search) wasn't meant to be deep, just relevant in an odd way.

Yup, the show's good as shit. I actually like it better than his stand-up.

There's not much in life I can't relate to a Seinfeld or Simpsons scene/quote.

I think possibly...just a hunch...that maybe google was involved? :idea:
I can see how you thought it was deep though.
