Can you remember being a teenager or in your 20s? You know, back when (for most people) all of your body parts worked as they were designed to work. What we wouldn’t give to have one day in our teenaged bodies, right? With every new decade, most people encounter new problems. One night I was asleep and an excruciating pain in my knee woke me up. It was the same pain I felt both times I tore an ACL. I jumped up and could barely stand, so my husband ran and got me some ibuprofen. When I woke up in the morning, I was OK, but I told my husband that we’re officially at the age where things break while we’re sleeping. Who knew? If you can relate, you’ll enjoy the hilarious joke below.
Three men were discussing aging at the nursing home.
“Sixty is the worst age to be,” said the 60-year-old. You always feel like you have to pee. And most of the time, you stand at the toilet and nothing comes out!”
“Ah, that’s nothin’,” said the 70-year-old. “When you’re seventy, you can’t even crap anymore. You take laxatives, eat bran, you sit on the toilet all day and nothin’ comes out!”
“Actually,” said the 80-year-old, “Eighty is the worst age of all.”
“Do you have trouble peeing too?” asked the 60-year-old.
“No, not really. I pee every morning at 6:00. I pee like a racehorse on a flat rock; no problem at all.”
“Do you have trouble crapping?”
“No, I crap every morning at 6:30.”
With great exasperation, the 60-year-old said, “Let me get this straight. You pee every morning at 6:00 and crap every morning at 6:30. So what’s so tough about being 80?”
“I don’t wake up until 7:00.”
