I don't have a problem with it if it's honest sentiment expressed in a way that might not be PC now, but is still an honest question, which is how I took her comment when I read it.
I hope I get the same consideration when I'm older...mostly because I'm closer to "old fart" status than most of you here, I think.
Wrong language can be ok... racist/sexist is not, even if you are old.
I'm not offended by what she said (it is whatever), I just find it very bizarre someone would point that out as a great/funny story.
