Something disturbing i have noticed at my new workplace...

I am now working at a huge mall for a clothing store called Zara and i couldn't help but notice that EVERY morning the place is FILLED with old people , either sitting down and doing nothing, speed walking with dumbbells or waiting for the clothing stores to open... I just saw an old lady with a walker that had wheels at the bottom and she was at the verge of jogging...

For one, the mall is air conditioned. Old people love that shit in the summer. Two, those senior mall-walks have been going on for years. Do you have any idea how boring/unsatisfying retirement is for a lot of people? Mall-walks are a great way for old folks to socialize and stay active.

Yah i don't think so either , i can't imagine being 80 years old and gay, can you imagine what flirting would be like by then?

It surprises me also, considering they have much less body fat at that age.

edit: Actually no, it makes sense...because they're also much more susceptible to the heat/sun/humidity.

This action by seniors has been going on since malls were first invented.

They've been doing this forever. I used to go to mall arcades in the mid 90's. In the mornings the place was always swarming with old folks walking back and forth in front of the caged shops. I thought it was kinda weird, but I'll probably be doing the same thing eventually.

who's down to show up at a mall early and pretend the oldies are zombies and the mall is our last holdout?

This is true, we have a mall that is held up by a few major stores but the weak are always loosing their businesses and that mall is full of old people walking with hand weights that strap on with Velcro around the wrist and ankles. It even has plaques around the mall to show how far of a distance you have walked.

it grosses me out when I see a really old person eating... especially when it's something like pudding or custard. Ugh! Makes me feel nauseous.
