Can't I just be dead, instead of being old like that?

Anyway, I'd be the kind one, assuming I live that long. I don't see myself changing personalities because of age. (It might happen, but I'd like to think it won't.)
The realization that death is close, and the feeling of helplessness that goes along with it changes most people.

I'd like to be the kind of senior that everyone enjoys being around, but based on what I stated above, I'll probably be a hermit or something.

I went with wise old guy because thier was no option to be the cool old dude who smokes weed on the porch (or whatever the drug of choice in the future is) with the teenagers on my porch. Baring that though wise would be fine cause then I could offer stories about my teenager years(and the time of my parents and granparents) and make sure the kids realize how lucky they are.

I'll be old and cranky as hell. I'll repeatedly yell at non-existent kids to "get off my lawn" and moan about how everything was better back in the 90's. I'll gradually shift towards conservative politics, as new ideas and optimism and hope will frighten the bejeezus of of me. I'll wax nostalgic about how "kids behaved in MY DAY" to anyone who will listen, and of course, complain bitterly about how kids behave today.

I am ACTUALLY looking forward to that. It'll be the only bright side of being old. I mean, I do that anyway (except the conservative voting thing).

I want to be the kind that isn't male, but you have no options for that, do you?
It's okay, anyway, since I'll be dead long before I reach those years.
And glad of it. No having to grow old for me.
So I'll be the dead woman. No need to reach the "Old" part for me.

Why not a Creepy, Nostalgic, Wise Old Man?

"I was a woman once...I'm not quite sure what happened."
Hahaha, I'd have to say something like this.
I'm not sure when my transaction from woman to man will happen, but it's exciting!

OT: I'm already physically falling apart at the the age of 18, so I'm going to be screwed by time I'm in my 70s/80s. I'll probably be cranky old man because of it. I'll tell kids they don't know they're born too and compare our technology with theirs.

I don't want to become a man but I am almost certainly going to be a cranky old person when I'm older. Odds are I'm going to be a total curmudgeon.

I would probably end up like my grandfather.

"Hi grandpa'!"
"Hello, how are you doing?"
"Fine you?"
"Did you know that today is the day that Alexander conquered Babylon? Let me tell you about it..."

I love my grandpa, talking about history and geography while playing chess and eating nuts. Great, now I want to visit him...

I don't want to grow old, but... I'd want to be wise or kind. Most certainly not cranky or creepy. :eek:

My neighbor is a creepy old man. He spies on people. :(

It is my hope and dream to become a cranky old man that yells at all the kids in the neighbor to stay off my lawn.

I will be the creepy man who goes wandering into suburbs at night to LOOK INSIDE OF PEOPLE'S HOUSES.
