Some of them really are...
I was watching this documentary about retirement place (a HUGE one) in Florida.. It was just like in high school.
There were popular folks, and then the not so popular, and they bashed each other like little kids, talking behind their backs and back stabbing each other all the time.
Rumours spreading, nasty ones too! It made many old peoples lives miserable, you could just see it. THey just didn't get along at all. They had clubs, but you didn't get in if you weren't thought as 'cool'. Sure, you could try and come, but they'd smoke you right out by making you feel like crap and failure. If you couldn't dance good because you were too old and bones aching, then you suck and you are being laughed at. It was CRUEL!
Kind of funny, I thought when you're old, you'd want some peace and enjoy your life a bit... but that was not fun from what I saw for most people. Someones wives or husbands died (like they do in those places all the time) but they were still outkasts.. but now alone.
Remind me to never go to a place like that. And if my kids send me there, I'll just have to whoop their butts.
Also one of my buddies was working in hospital for old folks and he was pissed all the time because they were torturing him. Now he's a good and decent kid, a class act. But some of the oldies just tried to make his life miserable by talking him down all the time. Nothing was good for them, nothing. Coffee time was the worst he told me.. 'no, my spoon must be on the left side, how many times have I told you this you little punk? now go make me a new one!' 'NO NO NO! My sugar must be on the left AND the right side, go back and do it again'. It wasn't good enough to apologize, and correct the error and smile, oh no.. that would just ruin their days. His favourite was 'this is too HOT!', and it was impossible for some of them to wait a bit to cool down.. and at the same time others complained it was too cold! And some of them really weren't nice about it either. Nothing but a bunch of bitter old losers! 
When I grow old and if I get grumpy like that, I hope the nurse or whatever hits me in the head few times. Or maybe nude wrestles me if shes a hottie. If the matress is good enough, maybe I can body suplex her too.
Oh.. and they pee in their pants too, like little kids.

I remember one lady who wasn't a whiny kid;
Mrs C lived in a tiny Georgian 2 up-2 down house. No exlectricity. Ironed and washed until 3 months before she died - of bowel cancer. No medication, no visits from relatives, fvck all help expect my Mom used to pop round to get her shopping.
Like to see any of you Mofo's measure up to that.

Don't get dementia victims mixed up with old folks.
Dementia is a disease that means you behave like a little kid - plenty of old folks still play with a full deck.
Oh yeah, dementia is not just a disease of the old - my uncle had pre-senile dementia, it drove my aunt batty. Quite frankly death is often a mercy in such cases.

Oerdin, SUre you shouldn't take those personally, as they would do it to anyone serving them. And naturally some of them are in bad condition and that has to be tough mentally, and then they take it out on people they shouldn't.. but maybe they don't have anyone to take it out on.
But the Florida thing was for people who are in good condition. You know like a big society. That was the high school place, all about social competition.
I mean they even had cheerleaders there, and they were training to put on a show later, and that was TOUGH competition, ladies getting put down and smoked out with outmost cruelty. Like they were all that, who was in it.. I mean who cares, they were not THAT hot even when they clearly thought so, and not so much better than other applicants. They were just more cruel and nasty.
