The creepy way old people point (1 Viewer)

When I was a kid it use to freak me out when old people would point. They would always have a bend in their finger, and their hand would shake. Half the time you had no idea where or what they where pointing at.

I do this now. My fingers, broken and twisted multiple times in my life, and now twisted even more with arthritis, do not straighten out. I am probably now freaking out kids they way others once did me.

 
What creeps me out is old guys with their eyes bulging and jaw wide open looking like they're trying to scream.

They are trying to scream. That "look" is a heart attack, stoke, and pants ####ting happening all at once. Their faces get stuck like that at the moment of death. Cover them with a sheet and call the coroner.

 
"Do you see the man you've described in that courtroom today"

"...[feebly] Yes. [points]"

"Good Lord, he's implicated two-thirds of the gallery."

 
I had an great uncle who did the old finger point and it would freak me out. It was always accompanied with him saying, "Go get undressed over there." Just really freaky.

 
What to do when talking to someone with a roaming eye. do you follow the roamer? which one has the dominant vision?!

I usually move to stay in line of sight with the roaming eye

Just shuffle back and forth.

Dammit. :lmao: I've had 2 jobs in the last 16 years and both places have had someone with an eye like this. I usually try to focus on the bridge of the nose, but it's hard to not dart back and forth.

"They say that the eyes are the window to the soul, and you, sir, have a highly mobile soul!"

 
If you're walking down the street someday and spot some ancient hollow eyes, please don't just pass them by and stare as if you didn't care. Say hello in there, hello.

You know that old trees just grow stronger

And old rivers get wilder everyday

Old people just grow lonesome

Waiting for someone to say, hello in there-o

Sailing, football, judo, wrestling, aikido, climbing, manual labor on a farm. The stuff boys and young men do.

I've stuck with the girly stuff but look at these pretty hands. :bye:

 
Anyone else notice how Antonio Gates had the old guy crooked end pointy finger in The League? Was thinking about thread when I saw it last night (DVR'd a bunch).
