gordon, my fiance had his grandaughter (14) in the car with him recently and in the midst of the conversation he said, "but i'm probably just an old fart". to which she immediately said to him, "papa, you're not an old fart! you're just old!"
at 63, i would be offended at being called a fart, old or not, it is just a word that i don't think has a place in polite conversation. i would much rather be call an 'old tart'! 🙂 but polite conversation has deteriorated to the point where words that would have gotten my mouth washed out with soap are now commonplace........unfortunately.
