    Robert Maddox is the living saint of Fucking Around Til You Figure It Out. He’s a mad man. He claims one of his influences is Wile E. Coyote. He’s had one of his carts up to 90. I am always just in awe of the guy

    I pick a complete menace to society. I wanna become the most anarchist old geezer that ever existed.

    When local young people blast rap, k-pop and lo-fi from their Bluetooth speakers, I’ll bring boombox and Disturbed.

    I want to be both. I want to be the 90 yo great grandpa sneaking the kids out of their high school classes to take them skydiving, and giving them life advice on the way (if they ask for it)

    3 main points of grumpy old men, 1: grumpy old men and angry/rude old men are completely different, 2: grumpy old men are just men who have lived long enough, putting up with being politically correct to idiots and bad behaviour, and decide to finally say no to idiots and bad behaviour, 3: the “bad” effect of grumpy old men is just a younger politically correct person’s inability to accept the truth
