All of us are now getting on a bit, some of us are even about to enter old age or retirement, so do you find yourself doing things that might be seen as a bit eccentric?
Me, I've recently adopted sometime I'd call plate economy; had some crumpets for afternoon tea, get home and can only be bothered to make a sandwich, so I'll use the same plate and just occasionally if it was a non-messy sandwiches I might use again to have a piece of cake as pudding! :gasp:
For a society as a whole, should eccentricity in old age be encouraged or should us 'Olds' shut up and slip off that coil quietly and be bound by conventions?
Meowtf?
As a kid I thought Logan's run presented a dystopian society, but I now think of it as utopian.
Isn't this standard student behaviour?

No it's saving the planet, one unused dishcloth at a time.
Eccentricity in old age seems to be a British specialty, we could use more of that here.
But your example is not setting a high bar :lol:

Sure we could do that, so Eddie do you have any, maybe a Chuck and Di only lying around? :D
