If you are a senior you will understand this one,
if you deal with seniors this should help you
understand them a little better,
and if you are not a senior yet……..
God willing, someday you will be. . . . .
My wife and I went to breakfast at a restaurant where the “Seniors’ Special” was two eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast for $2.99.
‘Sounds good,’ my wife said. ‘But I don’t want the eggs.’
‘Then, I’ll have to charge you $3.49 because you’re ordering a la carte,’ the waitress warned her.
‘You mean I’d have to pay for not taking the eggs?’ my wife asked incredulously.
‘YES!’ stated the waitress.
’I'll take the “Special” then,’ my wife said.
‘How do you want your eggs?’ the waitress asked.
‘Raw and in the shell,’ my wife replied.
She took the two eggs home and baked a cake!
Hilarious!!! My husband and I are sitting here laughing about this one.
I love it Barb
I absolutely love old people
In contrast to old people they still have manners!
Thanks for your visit Kim!
This was great Barb, you gave me a right old laugh!! c
Happy to be able to give you a laugh Cecilia!
That was one insensitive waitress. Where I ate breakfast like “IHOP” or “Denny’s” seniors are like celebrities. They gets the best deals, a cozy corner, and any revisions they want. I have high respect to seniors. They were young once and gave so much to the society and their family. And yes, one day, I want to have a breakfast that cost less but have a lot of possibilities. Have a sweet , blessed day …
Thank you IT, for your kind, thoughtful comment.
So funny, and so true..great !
Brilliant! This made me smile
Thanks Rachel, and welcome to my blog! I love the name of yours so I had to check it out and now you have a new follower – I have to get to know your little gang, they look like they are a lot of fun!
Oh I love it! I’ll have to remember that trick next time I don’t want something served in a restaurant…
I think I would chicken out!
LOVED this!
I may be a senior but nowhere near as quick-witted as this lady —
Good joke, serious effect, sharpening my wits —
Thanks, Barb!
She was sharp as a tack!
I did a double-take at first Barb when I started reading about your ‘wife’…. then the penny dropped and I realised it was a joke! Good one.
Glad the penny dropped!
Hehe
Haha that is funny!
Great one!
Hahahaha!! You don’t have to be a senior to appreciate that one!!! Thanks for the laugh!!
No worries . . . your time will come!!!
Good one, Barb! We must stick together…
We should put it to the test Denise!
After managing a senior’s residence for three years, I learned a LOT about speaking up. So as humourous as these jokes about seniors are, I love them because often the nonsense we have going in society needs to be blown off. When any of us speak up, it makes tremendous sense! When seniors speak up, it provides an excellent role model.
That’s why I love it too – to counteract the nonsense we have in society today. It brings us back down to sensible basics!
Well that was a great lesson. Both for the waitress and myself! LOL
A good lesson for all!
That was a great story – playing them at their own silly game!!
Hope you’re having a fun weekend,
Your pal Snoopy
Yup – throw their silly game right back at them!
DON’T MESS WITH SENIORS!!!

that’s a good slogan!
Thanks Dietmar!
This was a much needed chuckle piece. TY!
You’re very welcome!
Hilarious Barb, thanks for making me laugh
Got a job start on the 16th Yippie
Thanks Jackie.
Great news about the job start!
Thanks Shell!
Thanks for the smile Barb.
That makes me happy granny!
great one barb, rock on the seniors
Can’t get one over us, huh Harry?
We seniors know how to handle those situations.
Loved this. Hugs
Just up our street Mumsy!
Too funny!
Thanks Bongo!
Seniors rock!
We do . . . wait till you get there Nancy!
I have heard a similar story, but not the same punch line. I laughed at that one too. Having been a senior legally for some time now, I love hearing witty things in defence of seniors (and not against them). Thanks for the boost, Barb.
No worries Sandra!
Go Barb! I promise I will take your threat seriously….seriously I will! (- ; Margie
LOL !!! that’s a good one! Wouldn’t it be fun to try it some time…
Might get some funny looks if we did!
~rofl~ I love it. Thanks for sharing this. I needed the laugh.
Glad to help out Elizabeth!
Loved it! and what a very good idea
We should try it some time Patrecia! Might get a funny look from the waitress!
Hi barb19,
That is hilarious, I loved the punch line.
I wasn’t sure about posting this, but now I’m glad I did!
