gericondriac 

Similar to how a hypochondriac decides they are sick and the self fulfilling prophecy renders them ill, a gericondriac decides they are old and tired. Soon after, the gericondriac settles into a boring, vegetative state - doomed to live out their life as a shadow of their former selves.

the Geritol crowd

Senior citizens. Could be used affectionately, humorously, derisively, or simply as a matter of fact depending on the speaker's tone of voice and whether s/he is a senior citizen.
John, give the Geritol crowd a break when you get on the bus. Those "Priority Seating" signs are there for a reason. It's very difficult for a senior citizen who needs to get around to do, say, shopping, to sit down or get up if s/he has sciatica and is forced to sit in the back of the bus.
