Driving the posted speed limit in the left lane with their blinker on.   Plus, if there is a Cracker Barrel, it is mandated they stop.

Yep.  Or, in order to help the old timers,    YES

The majority of posters here are middle aged or older.

My only complaint is the mods keep increasing the age for the Senior Discount.

Not if you go to Rockford and take I 39 and I 74. Plenty of Cracker Barrels and I love them. Yes, I'm a devout boomer.

Make the check to Rocky personally rather than Scoop and you can get your subscription dues much cheaper.

Writing checks is for old people who actually have money in their bank accounts along with other investments. That's why we can buy multiple houses and leave younger people having to rent overpriced apartments.  :D

FIFY

Not to take us even further off topic, since this is Scoop and all and we absolutely never do that, but I was at a school function for my kindergartner where they were selling raffle tickets.  Of course, they were selling them cash - no venmo or other app payments and no credit cards.  I had no cash on me... but low and behold, I had our checkbook!   

It created quite the buzz!  By the time I was done there was literally a small crowd gathered around the spectacle of someone paying via check.  I got a lot of questions and comments about doing so.  Mainly they remarked that they a: didn't have checks, b: asked why we actually had one with us, or c: commented that they wouldn't know how to write one out if they did have them.
