Dear Mods. I have a suggestion for a new sticky to either be put in "Community Discussions" or "Casual Banter"

Some of you people will recognize it from one of the other threads.

There needs to be an "Ask a Geezer" sticky.
I imagine the topics there could get quite interesting. Such things as "When I was your age, we didn't have any damn _________"

to "Kids, get outa my yard"

C'mon Mods, be a sport.

Why does it need to be a sticky? I find that making something a sticky almost guarantees it won't be read.

I thought the stickies were like "Ask a Master" and "Ask a Mistress"?
mea culpa.

Soo, what ARE those things called?

I'm afraid to ask on a site that deals with sexuality... but what is a sticky?

Oh, and Hill, if you're going to be an old geezer you've got to do it right. "Kids, get outta my yard," don't cut it. The proper phrasing is:

"GET OUTTA MY YARD YOU DAMN KIDS!"

Or, if you want to put a country twist to it:

"HEY! COME ON MY PROPERTY AGAIN AND I'LL SHOOT YER ASS!"

Oh you want a whole new CATEGORY. Ain't happening. But I do dig ASK A GEEZER. Or alternately, COOT. I think of our Ron more as a COOT.

I'm still confused. There isn't anything that looks like sticky notes at the top of the forum. Off to the side there what look like sheets of paper with one corner folded. At the very top of the screen are the "file folder" tabs... but nothing that really looks like a sticky note.

Doggone it. Try this again.

My grandparents didn't have indoor plumbing until I was 15. We had to go out by the railroad tracks to use the outhouse and bathed in a big tub bucket in the kitchen. True story.

And by what stretch of the imagination does the word "Top" resemble a sticky note?

I am more confused than ever.

That coulda been rough if you had eaten too many fresh peaches and there was a freight train coming thru.

ETA, my bad, I thought ya said the outhouse was on the other side of the tracks. THAT woulda been a hardship.

Boiled turnips and cabbage for dinner and fresh peaches for dessert would clear those little fuckers out.

Most of the time we didn't have television. When we did it was black and white. We never had cable television. I didn't have cable until 15 years ago.

We have two now. The spiffy new LED 47 incher I asked for, for Christmas, a year ago last..........and the 16 year old, 26 incher, that is sitting unused in the basement.

Right now we have no cable or dish hooked up (it's too nice outside to be sitting on our asses inside). It's DVDs or nothing.
