These Are Funny Senior Citizen Stories
We Can ALL Relate To

We senior citizens may not be as quick or as strong as we used to be. But, there is no question that we are some of the most AMAZING people on this green Earth! And, we do funny stuff. Right? Sometimes just because we are seniors! And, it's fun to share our stories with each other.

In this article we will share stories all of us seniors can relate to and have a good laugh with. Sometimes it's stuff that only us seniors have a real connection with. Funny stories that let us know, "Yeah, we're normal. We're still OK." And, we are funny!

Don't you agree?

Laughing
Boosts Our Well Being!

Did you know laughing at ourselves is one of the best things we can do for ourselves? And, research is proving this every day:


“The ability to laugh at your mistakes (and yourself) boosts your physical and psychological well being.”
reference: “Laughing at Yourself”


“Laughter strengthens your immune system, boosts mood, diminishes pain, and protects you from the damaging effects of stress. Nothing works faster or more dependably to bring your mind and body back into balance than a good laugh. Humor lightens your burdens, inspires hope, connects you to others, and keeps you grounded, focused, and alert. It also helps you release anger and forgive sooner.” reference: “The Benefits of Laughter”

So let's have some more laughs whenever we can!

We Hope These Stories
Make You Laugh, OUT LOUD!

Where do all of our funny senior citizen stories come from?

Simple....  We’re seniors now. We’ve seen a LOT of life. We've had a load of incredible experiences. Both good and bad. We have priceless good memories. We have battle scars. Aches and pains. The engine just doesn’t run quite the way it used to. And, neither does our thinking all the time. So what?

Right?

That's what makes some of our stories so funny!

And, some of the stuff we do and say now, as well as some of the situations we get into are just hilarious. Don't you agree?

In sharing these stories we mean absolutely NO DISRESPECT to any seniors or anyone else in any way. Heck, most of the staff here are seniors. (Including myself!) We just want to bring a little more light and happiness into everyone's day.

So, hopefully these funny senior citizen stories, anecdotes, and one liners are things you can relate to and hopefully some will make you laugh out loud!

The
Survey

Where do our stories come from?

We have a lot of great readers who send them to us.

We started including a question in many of our surveys that says: “What is your funniest senior citizen story, or, funny moment you can remember? It can be one that happened to you, or, just a funny story you heard.”

We received 558 replies back from this question so far. We tried to leave out the dirty ones (although some of those were hysterically funny). So, you can comfortably read these with your family members.

What we have in this article is our Top 59 favorite funny senior citizen stories so far.

Remember:
You’re Not The Only One Getting Older!

One more great thing about sharing funny senior citizen stories is that they not only make us laugh, these funny stories make us feel “normal”. And, not take everything so seriously.

We realize most everything is OK. Because it really is. We realize we're not the only one getting older. There are millions of us! Millions! And, we all share a LOT of the same funny situations and frailties now.

How many times have you thought that something you said, did, or were unable to do anymore was just your own personal curse? It's not. You're just like the rest of us.

Please take your time to enjoy as many of these funny senior citizen stories and mishaps as you can. There's lot of very funny stuff here. We’re all in this “getting old” boat together.

Funny Senior Citizen Stories #1
WILL I LIVE TO BE 100?

Fred turned 80 and was feeling pretty good. He was wondering if he might live to be 100? He wanted to know how to plan accordingly. So, he went to get a full physical check up.

After two visits  and extensive lab tests, he was told, “You’re doing pretty well for a man your age.”

This “pretty well” didn’t sound so exciting. So, he asked, “Do you think I’ll live to be 100?”

The physician replied, “Do you smoke or drink wine, beer, or spirits?”

Fred answered: “No. And, neither do I do any drugs.”

“Do you eat thick rib eye steaks? Or, BBQ of any kind?”

A PERFECT MARRIAGE?

A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had kept no secrets from each other, except that the little old woman had a shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never to open or ask about it.

For all of these years the old man had never thought about the box. But, one day the little old woman got very sick and she knew she would not recover. In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took down the shoe box and took it to his wife's bedside. She agreed it was time that he should know what was in the box.

When he opened it he found two crocheted dolls and a stack of money totaling $95,000. He asked her about the contents.

"When we were to be married," she said, "my grandmother told me the secret of a happy marriage was never to argue. She told me that if I ever got angry with you I should just keep quiet and crochet a doll."

The little old man was moved to tears. Only two precious dolls were in the box. She had only been angry with him two times in all those years of living and loving. He almost burst with happiness.

"Honey," he said, "that explains the dolls, but what about all of this money? Where did it come from?"

"Oh," she said. "That's the money I made from selling the dolls."

ELIZABETH

Elizabeth was an 85 year-old woman who was particularly despondent over the recent death of her husband Edward. She decided that she would just kill herself and join him in death.

Thinking that it would be best to get it over with quickly, she took out Edwards’s old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself in the heart since it was so badly broken in the first place.

Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become paralyzed, she called her best friend to inquire as to just exactly where her heart would be.

“On a woman,” her friend told her, “our heart is just below our left breast.”

Later that night, Elizabeth was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound to her left knee!

After about 15 minutes, she taps him on his shoulder again and she hands him another handful of peanuts.

She repeats this gesture about five more times.

When she is about to hand him another batch again he asks the little old lady, 'Why don't you eat the peanuts yourself?'

ALBERT

An old man was grocery shopping with his grandson. The toddler was crying, and at times, screaming at the top of his lungs.

As the old gentleman walked up and down the aisles, people could hear him speaking in a soft voice... 'We are almost done, Albert...try not to cry, Albert... Life will get better, Albert...'

As he approached the checkout stand, he carefully brushed the toddler's tears from his eyes and said again, 'Try not to cry, Albert... We will be home soon, Albert...'

As he was paying the cashier, the toddler continued to cry and scream. A young woman in line behind him said, 'Sir, I think it is wonderful how sweet you are being to your little Albert.'

The old gentleman blinked his eyes a couple of times before saying: 'My grandson's name is John......I'm Albert….

THE WALMART ONE DAY WONDER!

Can you believe I lasted less than a day as a retail store greeter?

A few hours into my first day on the job a very loud, unattractive, mean-acting woman came into the store with her two children, yelling at them all the way through the entrance.

As I had been instructed, I said pleasantly, 'Good morning, and welcome. Nice children you have there; are they twins?'

The ugly woman stopped yelling long enough to say, 'Hell no, they ain't twins. The oldest one's nine, and the other one's seven. Why the hell would you think they're twins? Are you blind, or just stupid?'

So I replied, 'I'm neither blind nor stupid, ma'am, I just couldn't believe someone would make a baby with you twice. Have a good day and thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart.'

The HR department said I probably wasn't cut out for this line of work.

Question: Why do retirees count pennies?
Answer: They are the only ones who have the time.

THE CONSPIRACY

Have you ever noticed that when you're of a certain age, everything seems uphill from where you are? Stairs are steeper. Groceries are heavier.
And, everything is farther away. Yesterday I walked to the corner and I was dumbfounded to discover how long our street had become!
And, you know, people are less considerate now, especially the young ones. They speak in whispers all the time! If you ask them to speak up they just keep repeating themselves, endlessly mouthing the same silent message until they're red in the face! What do they think I am, a lip reader?
I also think they are much younger than I was at the same age.
On the other hand, people my own age are so much older than I am. I ran into an old friend the other day and she has aged so much that she didn't even recognize me.
I got to thinking about the poor dear while I was combing my hair this morning, and in doing so, I glanced at my own reflection........Well, REALLY NOW ......... even mirrors are not made the way they used to be!
Another thing, everyone drives so fast today! You're risking life and limb if you just happen to pull onto the freeway in front of them. All I can say is, their brakes must wear out awfully fast, the way I see them screech and swerve in my rear view mirror.
Clothing manufacturers are less civilized these days. Why else would they suddenly start labeling a size 10 or 12 dress as 18 or 20? Do they think no one notices that these things no longer fit around the waist, hips, thighs, and bosom?
The people who make bathroom scales are pulling the same prank, but in reverse. Do they think I actually "believe" the number I see on that dial? HA! I would never let myself weigh that much! Just who do these people think they're fooling?
I'd like to call up someone in authority to report what's going on-but the telephone! company is in on the conspiracy too: they've printed the phone books in such small type that no one could ever find a number in here!
All I can do is pass along this warning: Maturity is under attack!

THE TURKEY HUNTERS

An 80 year old man went in for his yearly check-up. The examining practitioner was amazed at what good shape the old man was in. Curious, he asked the man, "To what do you attribute your great vitality?"

The old timer said, "I'm a turkey hunter and that's why I'm in such good shape. I'm up well before daylight and out chasing turkeys up and down the mountains."

The attendant then said, "Well, I'm sure that helps, but there's got to be more to it. How old was your dad when he died?"

The old timer said, "Who said my dad's dead?"

"You mean you're 80 years old and your dad's still alive? How old is he?"

The old timer said, "He's 100 yrs old and, in fact, he hunted turkey with me this morning, and that's why he's still alive... he's a turkey hunter."

"Well, that's great, but I'm sure there's more to it. How about your dad's dad? How old was he when he died?"

The old timer said, "Who said my grandpa's dead?

"You mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather's still living! How old is he?"

The old timer said, "He's 118 yrs old." The practitioner was getting frustrated at this point and said, "I guess he went turkey hunting with you this morning too?"

The old timer said, "No... Grandpa couldn't go this morning because he got married."

In amazement the practitioner exclaimed: "Got married!! Why would a 118-year-old guy want to get married?"

The old timer replied, "Who said he wanted to?"

"Unfortunately,
aging seems to be the only available way to live a long life.”

REMEMBER WHEN

Remember when the worst thing you could do at school was smoke in the bathrooms, flunk a test or chew gum? And the banquets were in the cafeteria and we danced to a juke box later, and all the girls wore fluffy pastel gowns and the boys wore suits for the first time and we were allowed to stay out till 12 p.m?

When a '57 Chevy was everyone's dream car? . . to cruise, peel out, lay rubber and watch drag races, and people went steady and girls wore a class ring with an inch of wrapped dental floss or yarn coated with pastel frost nail polish so it would fit her finger? And, no one ever asked where the car keys were 'cause they were always in the car, in the ignition, and the doors were never locked? And, you got in major big trouble if you accidentally locked the doors at home, since no one ever had a key?

Remember lying on your back on the grass with your friends and saying things like "That cloud looks like a _____"? And, playing baseball with no adults to help kids with the rules of the game? When baseball was not a psychological group learning experience? When it was just a game?

Remember when stuff from the store came without safety caps and hermetic seals 'cause no one had yet tried to poison a perfect stranger?

And...with all our progress...don't you just wish...just once...you could slip back in time and savor the slower pace.... and share it with the children of the 80's and 90's....?

Remember Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys, Laurel & Hardy, Howdy Doody and The Peanut Gallery, The Lone Ranger, The Shadow Knows, Nellie Belle, Roy and Dale, Trigger and Buttermilk?

Remember the sound of a real mower on Saturday morning, and summers filled with bike rides, playing in cowboy land, baseball games, bowling and visits to the pool...and eating Kool-Aid powder with sugar?

When being sent to the principal's office was nothing compared to the fate that awaited a misbehaving student at home? When we were in fear for our lives not because of drive by shootings, drugs, gangs, etc... But, because our parents and grandparents were a much bigger threat!?

We survived because their love was greater than the threat. It feels good, just to go back and say, Yeah, I remember that! And, was it really that long ago?

IT'S NOT THAT BAD

At a retirement home in Miami, Florida, a group of Senior Citizens were sitting around talking about their ailments:

"My arms are so weak I can hardly lift this cup of coffee," said one.

"Yes, I know. My cataracts are so bad I can't even see my coffee," replied another.

"I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck," said a third, to which several nodded weakly in agreement.

"My blood pressure pills make me dizzy,".... another went on.

"I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an elderly man as he slowly shook his head.

Then there was a short moment of silence..........
'Well, it's not that bad," said one woman cheerfully. "Thank God we can all still drive.”

CALLING MOM

A man called his mother in Florida. He said to his mother, "How are you doing?"

She said, "Not too good. I've been very weak."

"Why are you so weak?"

"Because I haven't eaten in 38 days." "How come you haven't eaten in 38 days?"

"Because I didn't want my mouth to be filled with food when you called."

MILDRED AND CLAIRE

Two elderly senior sisters, Mildred and Claire, were out driving in a large car -- both could barely see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along they came to an intersection. The stoplight was red but they just went on through.

Claire, in the passenger seat thought to herself, "I must be losing it, I could have sworn Mildred just went through a red light".

After a few more minutes they came to another intersection and the light was red again. And, again Mildred drove right though. This time Claire was almost positive that the light had been red, but, was now really concerned that she may be losing her own mind. She was was getting nervous and decided to pay very close attention to the road and the next intersection to see what was going on.

At the next intersection, sure enough, the light was definitely red and they went right through. Claire turned to her sister and said, "Mildred! Did you know we just ran through three red lights in a row! You could have killed us!

Mildred turned to her and said "Oh, am I driving?”

THE HAT

An elderly senior lady was standing at the railing of the cruise ship holding her hat on tight, so that it would not blow off in the wind.

A gentleman approached her and said: "Pardon me, madam. I do not intend to be forward, but did you know that your dress is blowing up in this high wind?"

"Yes, I know," said the lady, "I need both hands to hold on to this hat!"

"But, madam, you must know that your privates are exposed!" said the gentleman in earnest.

LOST KEYS

After a meeting several days ago, I couldn't find my keys. I quickly gave myself a personal "TSA Pat Down."

They weren't in my pockets. Suddenly I realized I must have left them in the car. Frantically, I headed for the parking lot. My husband has scolded me many times for leaving my keys in the car's ignition. He's afraid that the car could be stolen.

As I looked around the parking lot, I realized he was right. The parking lot was empty. I immediately called the police. I gave them my location, confessed that I had left my keys in the car, and that it had been stolen.

Then I made the most difficult call of all to my husband: "I left my keys in the car and it's been stolen."

There was a moment of silence. I thought the call had been disconnected, but then I heard his voice. "Are you kidding me?" he barked, "I dropped you off!"

Now it was my turn to be silent. Embarrassed, I said, "Well, can you come and get me?"

He retorted, "I will, as soon as I convince this cop that I didn't steal your car!"

50 DOLLARS IS 50 DOLLARS!

Morris and his wife Esther went to the state fair every year, and every year Morris would say, "Esther, I'd like to ride in that helicopter".

One year Esther and Morris went to the fair, and Morris said, "Esther, I'm 85 already. If I don't ride that helicopter, I might never get another chance."

Esther replied, "Morris, that helicopter is 50 dollars -- and 50 dollars is 50 dollars."

The pilot overheard the couple and said, "Folks I'll make you a deal. I'll take the both of you for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say a word I won't charge you! But if you say one word, it's 50 dollars."

Morris and Esther agreed and up they went. The pilot did all kinds of fancy maneuvers, but not a word was heard. He did his daredevil tricks over and over again, but still not a word. When they landed, the pilot turned to Morris and said, "By golly, I did everything I could to get you to yell out, but you didn't. I'm impressed!"

Morris replied, "Well, to tell you the truth, I almost said something when Esther fell out, but you know -- 50 dollars is 50 dollars."

OUT SHOPPING

This is a true account recorded in the Police Log of Sarasota, Florida:

An elderly Florida lady did her shopping and, upon returning to her car, found four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle. She dropped her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at the top of her lungs, "I have a gun, and I know how to use it! GET OUT OF THE CAR!"

The four men didn't wait for a second threat. They got out and ran like mad.

The lady, somewhat shaken, then proceeded to load her shopping bags into the back of the car and got into the driver's seat. She was so shaken that she could not get her key into the ignition. She tried and tried, and then she realized why. It was for the same reason she had wondered why there was a football, a Frisbee, and two 12-packs of beer in the front seat.

A few minutes later, she found her own car parked four or five spaces farther down. She loaded her bags into the car and drove to the police station to report her mistake. The sergeant to whom she told the story couldn't stop laughing. He pointed to the other end of the counter, where four pale men were reporting a car jacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, glasses, curly white hair, and carrying a large handgun.

No charges were filed.

Moral of the story?

If you're going to have a senior moment...make it memorable!

GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT LIFE

There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it. For example, I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.


Reason to smile: Every seven minutes of every day, someone in an aerobics class pulls a hamstring.


Families are like fudge...mostly sweet with a few nuts.


Middle age is when you choose cereal for the fiber, not the toy.


The more you complain, the longer God lets you live.


You know you're getting old when you stoop to tie your shoes and wonder what else you can do while you're down there.

ROUTE 142

Sitting on the highway waiting to catch speeders, a state police officer saw a car puttering along at 22 M.P.H.

He thinks to himself, that car is just as dangerous as a speeder. So, he turns his lights on and pulls the car over.

Approaching the car, he notices there are 5 elderly ladies, two at the front and 3 at the back, wide eyed and looking like ghosts.

The lady driving, obviously confused, said, "Officer, I don't understand, I wasn't doing over the speed limit!, What seems to be the problem?"

"Ma'am," the officer said, "you should know that driving slower than the speed limit can also be dangerous".

"Slower than the speed limit? NO SIR! I was doing exactly 22 miles an hour", the elderly woman said proudly.

The officer containing a chuckle explains that 22 was the route number, not the speed limit.

A bit embarrassed, the woman grinned, thanking the officer for pointing out her error.

"Before I go Ma'am, I have to ask, is everyone OK? These women seem badly shaken and haven't uttered a word all this time."

"Oh! they will be alright in a minute, Officer, we just got off Route 142."

WHEN GOD LOOKED DOWN

Most seniors never get enough exercise. In His wisdom God decreed that seniors become forgetful so they would have to search for their glasses, keys and other things thus doing more walking.

And God looked down and saw that it was good.

Then God saw there was another need. In His wisdom He made seniors lose coordination so they would drop things requiring them to bend, reach & stretch.

And God looked down and saw that it was good.

Then God considered the function of bladders and decided seniors would have additional calls of nature requiring more trips to the bathroom, thus providing more exercise.

God looked down and saw that it was good.

So, if you find as you age that you are getting up and down more, remember it's Gods will. It is all in your best interest even though you mutter under your breath.

THE JUDGE

Lawyers should never ask a Georgia grandma a question if they aren't prepared for the answer.

In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand. He approached her and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know me?' She responded, 'Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you since you were a boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you'll never amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you.'

The lawyer was stunned. Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across the room and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense attorney?'

She again replied, 'Why yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship with anyone, and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him.'

The defense attorney nearly died.

The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and, in a very quiet voice, said,
'If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you both to the electric chair.

SHARING EVERYTHING

A young man saw an elderly couple sitting down to lunch at a local hamburger stand.


The elderly man placed an order for one hamburger, French fries, and a drink. When he brought the food back to the table, he carefully unwrapped the plain hamburger and gently cut it in half, placing one half in front of his wife.

He then carefully counted out the French fries, dividing them into two even piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.

He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them. As he began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people around them were looking over and whispering.


Obviously they were thinking, “That poor old couple—all they can afford is one meal for the two of them.”

As the man began to eat his fries a young man, who had been observing them, came to the table and politely offered to buy another meal for the elderly couple. The old man said, they were just fine—they were used to sharing everything.

People closer to the table noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite. She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink....

Again, the young man came over and begged them to let him buy another meal for them. This time the old woman said “No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything.”

Concerned, the young man then asked the wife if she was going to eat anything, and she replied, "Not yet. It's his turn with the teeth.”

THE LAWYER

An old penny pincher had no friends. Just before he died he asked his best friend, pastor, and lawyer to gather around him at bedside.

"I have always heard that you can't take it with you. But I want to disprove that theory," he said. "I have $90,000 under my mattress, and when I die, just before they throw the dirt on me at my burial, I want you each to toss in an envelope with $30,000 within." 

The three attended the funeral and each threw his envelope in the grave.

On the way back from the cemetery, the pastor said, "I must confess. I needed $10,000 for my new church, so I only threw in $20,000."

The best friend then said, "I must confess too. I needed $20,000 for a new business I was opening up, so I only threw in $10,000."



The lawyer looked at them both and shook his head. He then said, "Gentlemen, I'm surprised, shocked, and ashamed of you. I don't see how you could dare to go against that man's final wish. I mean, I threw in my personal check for the full amount…"

Finally, John picked up courage to ask her, "Will you marry me?" After about six seconds of careful consideration, Sally answered, "Yes,..... yes I will!" The evening ended on a happy note for both of them!


The next morning John was troubled. Did Sally say yes or did she say no? He couldn't remember.

Try as he would, he just could not recall. He went over the conversation of the previous evening, but his mind was blank. He remembered asking the question but for the life of him could not recall her response.

With fear and trepidation he picked up the phone and called Sally. First, he explained that he couldn't remember as well as he used to. Then he reviewed the past evening. As he gained a little more courage he then inquired of her. "When I asked if you would marry me, did you say yes or did you say no.

"Why you silly man, I said Yes. Yes I will. And I meant it with all my heart." John was delighted. He felt his heart skip a beat.

Then she continued. "And I am so glad you called because I couldn't remember who asked me!"
