FUNNY! Senior Citizen Dress Code -- just sent to me by my cousin!

Subject: Senior Citizen Dress Code

Many of us over 50 -- WAY over 50, or on the way to 50 -- are quite confused about how we should present ourselves. We're unsure about the kind of image we are projecting and whether or not we are correct as we try to conform to current fashions. Despite what you may have seen on the streets, the following combinations DO NOT go together and should be avoided:

1. A nose ring and bifocals
2. Spiked hair and bald spots
3. A pierced tongue and dentures
4. Miniskirts and support hose
5. Ankle bracelets and corn pads
6. Speedos and cellulite
7. A belly-button ring and a gall bladder surgery scar
8. Unbuttoned disco shirts and a heart monitor
9. Midriff shirts and a midriff bulge
10. Pierced nipples that hang below the waist
11. Bikinis and liver spots
12. Short shorts and varicose veins
13. Inline skates and a walker

And the ultimate "Bad Taste" in fashion for the "Older Folks":

14. Thongs and Depends

2. Glad you're laughing, Generic Other --

Laughing in old age is about all we can do --

I'm trying to find that poem some woman wrote about being old and wearing purple.

I saw the quote in some airport shop and didn't buy anything there.

6. LOl ~ I couldn't agree more !

I gave up miniskirts and I'm not into support hose, yet.

I love my Red hat ~ I've even worn it with purple ~ that's making a fashion statement for sure!
