    they love to p1ss off people!! they must do it on purpose so they can moan to each other about young people, how things aren't as good as they used to be, how young people are rude...etc etc!!

    old people are very antagonistic!

    Never criticise old people for being slow. A lot of elderly people suffer with ailments that slows them down. Older women have often had hip replacements. older men have had or still have heart problems. Remember this, you will be like this one day, we all slow down as we get older. Have you any relatives who are slow getting about. If so you know how it is for them. As for shopping on the weekend, they have the freedom to do this if they want to. A lot of pensioners have to shop daily because they are trying to stretch their pension money out, and they budget for each day. Show more respect for these people. give them some courtesy.

    They shop 7 days a week, by the time they get to Saturday and Sunday they are knackered that's when we run into them.

    Damn' nerve of you. Who do you class as old?

    By the looks of your punctuation and syntax, you must be approaching the age of 14 ('going on 12', and retrogressing rapidly).

    Yes, we are here to annoy you. We exist totally to annoy you. We pay for your education, your youth clubs, your youth courts and we suffer your deadbrain din that purports to approximate to the very edges of organised sound-to wit, the various approximations of cacophony that some grinning capitalist has convinced you to auscultate as 'music'.

    Be sure to walk behind us, doff your hoodies or your rotten baseball caps. You only exist because of us, and a lot of us are regretting the simple act of begetting you.

    because most people work through the week and the last thing we want to do after working all day long is to go do the shopping after work - so we go on the weekend

    Why shouldn't they? Do they have to spend all Saturday and Sunday at home just to make your life easier? What about the unemployed and stay at home mums, should we make them stay at home too at weekends?
