Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make
their
days interesting. Well for example, the other day I went into town and
went into a shop. I was only in there for about 5 minutes, when I came
out
there was a cop writing out a parking ticket

I went up to him and said, "Come on man, how about giving a senior
Citizen
a break?"

He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I called him a Nazi
turd.

He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn
tires.
So I called him a shithead.

He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the
first.
Then he started writing a third ticket.

This went on for about 20 minutes. The more I abused him, the more
tickets he wrote.

Personally, I didn't care. I came into town by bus. I try to have a
little
fun each day now that I'm retired. It's important at my age.


almost makes me want to sell my car and start taking the bus.
although in a more youthful era a friend and myself use to stay a
couple of cars ahead of the metermaids and put coins the meters.
geeze that would piss them off.

Now, y'see there? Some retired people know how to have fun. Here's another
example from a Walmart memo banning a Mr. Bill Fenton from the store.:

MEMO

Re: Mr. Bill Fenton - Complaints - 15 Things Mr. Bill Fenton has done while
his spouse/partner was shopping:

1. June 15, took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts
when they weren't looking.

2. July 2, set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute
intervals.

3. July 7, made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the rest
rooms.

4. July 19, walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone, "Code
3 in Housewares..." and watched what happened.

5. August 4, went to the Service Desk and asked to put a bag of M&M's on
layaway.

6. September 14, moved a "CAUTION - WET FLOOR" sign to a carpeted area.

7. September 15, set up a tent in the camping department and told other
shoppers he'd invite them in if they'll bring pillows from the bedding
department.

8. September 23: When a clerk asks if they can help him, he begins to cry
and asks, "Why can't you people just leave me
alone?"

9. October 4: Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror,
and picked his nose.

10. November 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, asked the
clerk if he knows where the antidepressants are.

11. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously, loudly humming the
"Mission Impossible" theme.

12. December 6: In the auto department, practiced his "Madonna look" using
different size funnels.

13. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through,
yelled "PICK ME!PICK ME!"

14. December 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed
the fetal position and screamed, "NO! NO!
It's those voices again!!!!"

15. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door and waited a while;
then, yelled, very loudly, "There is no toilet
paper in here!"
