SAVE OUR OLD PEOPLE!

Why I hate trendy people Reason #3: They are cheating poor old men out of their winter clothes.
Don't get me wrong, old people are fine... I'm not the biggest fan of hanging out with them, but I respect their right to do their thing. But I put my foot down when it comes to their clothing. Old people have every right to dress like old people. They have earned it, they wore heels and form fitting things back in their day, things that were far more uncomfortable than anything I wear. They get to rock their high wasted pants, Joseph's technicolor dream coat inspired sweaters, and bald spot covering hats. As probably the least trend inspired age group, they wear the clothing we all dream about getting to wear when we're old enough to throw our dentures up in the air, and wave them like we just don't care. The foreseeable paradise for slobs like me, is in danger. Trendy people have usurped old people's right to clothes and taken them for their own.
How many times from behind have you seen someone with short hair and a big sweater and thought to yourself, "Oh how nice, that old man is enjoying the park", only to be viciously mistaken when the person turns around and turns out to be a trendy female smoking a menthol cigarette. TOO MANY TIMES! When will it end? When will the old people get their right to tacky clothing back? When will the sequined sweatshirts, the nature inspired t-shirts, and the ugly shoes belong to the old people again? We must fight the hipsters, and let the old men in Goodwill be the ones to buy the oversize, overused, overly-colorful sweaters. What else are we grandchildren supposed to buy for our loving old people? The hipsters are cheating us out of our well planned gifts. We must band together to stop them. Otherwise the old people will no longer be cool, just cold.
