This was just suggested on a thread I just read.
My name suggests that I embrace that accusation. 🙄 Let's not dilute this staggeringly important poll with too many negative choices. |

No! Now get off my lawn! Now, THAT is an acceptable negative choice. |

I like to think of myself as a late middle-aged optimist. |

Inherently affable and optimistic more and more I find myself heading in that direction. |

Acc'd the recent age poll, some of us are young curmudgeons. |

Nope not by how I define the term.

No – I am a youthful optimist. |

Old? Yes. Curmudgeon? Maybe I am not the best judge of me. |
| Woollygooseuk | 17 Apr 2026 7:56 a.m. PST |
Surely you're only as old as the curmudgeon you feel. |

I'm only 62 and in the prime of my…well, I may be a bit grumpy from time to time. |

When the die rolls are going against me (almost always) yes. |

I've been one since my teens. Now that I'm in my 60's I see no reason to change. |

I'm such a curmudgeon that I have to point out that "old curmudgeon" is redundant. You have to be old to be a curmudgeon, like the "you must be this tall to ride" sign at the back room of the strip club. Now some other curmudgeon is going to point out that my complaint is actually that of a pedant, not a curmudgeon. Ha! Beat you to it. |
