retired geezers

Old retired guys who have too much time on their hands.
They are characterized by a lack of patience, which is surprising considering the fact that they probably have nothing better to do than watch Family Fued.
Quite often they start their own blog.
Retired Geezers are the guys with the little change purse in their pockets, who insist on counting out the exact change in the checkout line ahead of me. Usually they get it wrong or don't have the correct amount.
"Dude, that's what they pay the Clerks to do".
