Nope

Should have know it was some stupid hipster crap.

 

[Orangeredblooded]

Parents.

Relatives are “the rellies.”

Where is all this crap??? “Rents”, “Rellies”, etc. I’m almost positive there’s a etc. I don’t need anymore reminders that I’m getting older.

Rents taking us to dinner tonight

Ciao Bella Italian Grill › Ciao Bella Memphis

Oh wait, you’re the dummy that brought up “Rents”. I had to go back and look. I skimmed over it and thought it was a autocorrect thingy.

I first heard the terms in British fiction. (Murder mysteries and police procedural SS - I’m too lazy to read Literature.) I suppose it jumped the pond.

So is it just British and not kid butcherism of the English language? I guess I need to get out more.

I put the security system in there. Am friends with the Tashie cousins that own the place and their family. Weird they all come from classic Greek lineage, go over to Greece often, but have an Italian restaurant.

I am familiar with the Tashies

 

[theFallGuy]

I would try the Penne Carmelina.

Exactly what I ate. Booooooon!!!

 

[theFallGuy]

Okay, am I the only one that doesn't know what or who Rents is?

Lawd lawd lawd

Just slang, AFAIK. Maybe like us using “stoopit” and “drankin’”.

FWIW, I think in the books where I first came across it, it was the younger cops and civilians using it, and the old farts shook their heads. Some things are universal, I guess.

Yeah right, because we use correct and full words and talk in complete sentences.

Rious.

For every new addition to the grey crop on top of my head, I’ve found SMDH applies more and more.

I don’t have grey hair, it is wisdom hair.

And STFU TFG.

And this is EXACTLY why I don’t dye my grey hair, only some of the blah brown. I earned every one of those grey hairs, most of them the hard way!

 

[VolNExile]

Yes, I’m sure you were. That’s ok. Learn to embrace differences. It’s good for you.

Exactly dammit!

Is there a place where I can sign up for the “I’m old and proud” and is there a month to celebrate it?
Edit: STFU to anyone that posts the Social Security Department. Yea, I’m looking at you Souce.

Well, we could try for tribal affiliation: American Indian elder - Wikipedia

But otherwise, we seem to live in an age where professional success is often defined as endlessly moving from one corporation to another, destroying institutional knowledge and experience, and stripping it bare in the name of cost-cutting and increased stock returns for the C-Suite, in order to shine up one’s LinkedIn account, adding those action verbs, and moving to the next employer, leaving the wreckage behind. (Source: Hubs’s last decade or so at a Fortune 500 company.)

The general disrespect for older people, who knows? A lot is Hollywood and popular “culture” in general.

OK, Boomer.
