When you reach a 'certain age'...

[trof]

"Because I don't want to" becomes a perfectly valid reason.

[trof]

6. Depends on what the issue is. If your talking wearing a mask, then you're not only talking about

yourself, you're talking about everyone else as well. Most Srs. have or close to getting their Covid 19 shot so they might be immune to getting sick, but they don't know if you can still have the virus cells in your nasal tract & could infect others. Im 77 & in that very category. I always wear my mask to protect whoever I might encounter.

I'm all with ya on lots of other situations, and certainly am quick on the NO response. As long as I'm not harming anyone else, I think I've complied with lots of things to0 please others over the years, and "dam it, I don't have to any more!"

7. I will slightly amend that

"Because I don't f***ing want to"......yes INDEED

[Nay]

8. I actually say "I'm an old lady and I don't have to do that if I don't feel like it." My 15-yr-old

grandson thinks I'm cool as shit.
