I only respect people who deserve it, respect isnt something gained with age, but something to be earned.
LokeGroundrunner
Some elders are racist pieces of shit. Respect people who deserve the respect.
Whackamoley
Always respect your elders... Until they decide to kick you and yell at you.
Chrisantemus
My grandfather was a great electrician and mad musician but he was a violent asshole to his children.
TheOneThatGotBanned
Why would it matter where they come from?
TotalSmartAss
#1 why isn't that nurse at the nurse's station playing cards with the other nurses?

ddriscoll3
This is spectacular. Thank you.
TheShogunOfSarcasm
Bullshit. Their younger self could have just as easily been an asshole.
insongwhang
I'm 35 and this both scares and depresses me
mizmoose
I'm in my late 50s and I relate to this so much. And it's gonna get worse.
Takavos
Respect is earned not given. Age, skin color, gender, status it doesnt matter. Nobody is owed repect
GameKeeper3001
The sad part is the older I get the less I remember the young man I was.
pdp1
The older I get, the younger I think I am, and then I hurt myself because I think I can still physically do stuff when I shouldn't
commentsectiontrafficcop
Who you were made who you are. Dont worry about the seed. Look at that dope ass tree!
UndeadLahmacun
As a 21 year old with an ongoing identity crisis: thank you. I know this sentence, but it was very good to read it right now.
commentsectiontrafficcop
I'm happy the positivity I put out found you when you needed it.
prosperouscheat
I was a dumb asshole. I'd rather forget that.
Thephedora
Some of us are still young, but feel so old.
DarthLogos
Thankfully, my immaturity prevents me from forgetting that young man. I only adult when I have to.
EverybodyWasKungFuConfessing
I could have done a lot more.
ManickTheSmith
Were all half the man we used to be
mesowetodit
At least u don’t have to worry bout dying young.
poorwhitetrash
The young man I was was an asshole. The older man that I am is also an asshole.
brucom
Brent, is that you?
poorwhitetrash
Mom?!
smorsdoeuvres
I feel like I’ve had multiple lives/ lifetimes.
commentsectiontrafficcop
Same. Reinventing yourself is fun. Just don't forget where you started. I hate seeing that.
smorsdoeuvres
I’m grateful for every bit of it. Good & bad. Made me the person I am. I just hope I can keep my faculties, lol.. only works if you work it!

It must be hard knowing you're an infant girl

You are who you were, you just know more now.

I keep the chatlogs of my youth to remind me how fucking awful I was. Lmao

Damn man; that hit harder than I thought.
IamTheBestAtDonutEating
Dont miss the man I was. I just dwell on the opportunities I missed out on when I was younger. Said too busy too many times. Big ragrets
GhettoPenguin
Not even one letter?
pdp1
Just think to yourself, "Some things could have been better, but then others could have been much worse"... and try to move on
SardonicGrin
The will always be ragrets. But hey, there's always time for bigger better ones!
dyced
What’s a ragret?
scritch13
I think they mean regerts
HedonistBeard
You ain't dead yet. Imagine all the things you're missing out on because you're busy regretting your past.

You sir are the hero we need to stop all these feels. Great job!
hipifreq
One of the nice things about having kids is them reminding me of all of the stupid things I used to think/do/say/etc.
slabaReactionSmuggler
I used to respect my elders until they joined Facebook and I knew better
Noodlespanker
Can't wait to get old and die horribly. Thanks for the reminder!

eddewarde
After years of neglect in facility with angry staff (and fam won't believe complaints).
optimusgoose
There's always a silver lining. You could die tomorrow.
evilcarp
I remember praying everyday that I would get to live long enough to die an old man in my sleep. Perspective.
SlightlyBlackerTactleNeck
I'll respect the elders when they stop yelling at me about 2 cent markups
MicahtheMartian
Yes but please can you stay out of the fast lane?
Combatman23
Growing old is my number fear in life, it's the ultimate degenerative disease and it has a 100% mortality rate.
UnoriginalUsernamePerson
Respect is a two way thing, everyone should respect each other regardless of age, we're all human and in this shit together!
Cinema104
I don't get why respecting elders is controversial. I hope when I'm old, people will take the extra effort to be kind and patient with me.
IndigoR
This makes me sad
rmsrmsrms38
My grandfather faught Nazis. Mad respect.
whatwhatintheassholekid
My grandfather was a Nazi.....well this is ackward
thereareantzinmypants
Mine faught americans...

My grandfather fought your grandfather, maybe we should continue the fight?
WussupVoltage
Nah, that would be silly.
227Recon
I'm traveling with my grandfather who fought in WWII in Europe. I fought in Iraq and Afghanistan and stepped on a landmine.
TomZarekVP
so did I last week!
MattDude
They called my grandfather "Terror Billy", but I don't know why.
joelataupe
My grandfather died in the Auschwitz camp, when the south watchtower collapsed.
palmo
Luck for you it seems like you might have a chance to do the same thing.
CVStp
My grandfather fought your grandfather
InAMellowTone
My grandfather escaped the Nazis but not without being indoctrinated as a kid. Mad respect
TwistedSapper
As a veteran myself, those guys back then were bad ass. Beyond mad respect!
Chkari
My grandfather was in the US Navy during WWII but he didn't do much fighting. He was very humble and even embarrassed about his service.
HeroThatWasNeeded
Did he punch them in the face?
5P4C3M4N
Did he kill fiddy men
AllHailTechnoViking
Have you continued the family business?
Everyfootisalegend
Stay real, nowadays you can be happy if he isn't one.
bananaramabanana
my greatgrandfather fought for the nazis. can't choose your family, eh?
DisguisedLizardThing
If he was on the eastern front you can rephrase that to: He fought the soviets. Sounds way better if you don't add when and where.
TheNuclearRabbit
My great-great-grandfather fought confederates and raised 3 boys alone after his legs got shot off. Never met him, but mad respect.
AdmiralLightningrod
Bet they must have given him the run around back then.
VielSpass
My faughther faught Japs, but then was ordered to protect them from Filipinos who would cut off their egg rolls. War is twisted.
StopAskingMeForAnAccountImgurIWannaLurk
For some reason I read that as "granddaughter" which is unfortunately entirely plausible in today's world.
avi8tor
My friends grandpa fought the Yanks. Mad respect.

I despise that saying. They don’t deserve respect just cause they didn’t die sooner. Very many examples of nasty old people.
Suomijuusto89
what are those old black man papers, student loan?
VampireHisses
I'm sure the old white guy use to be a nazi death scientist, remembering poisoning Jews, now he just poisons cats, but it ain't the same.

jridley
Only another 37 years...

Everyone deserves respect until they do something to lose it. Don’t live your life looking for the wrong in the world or you’ll find it
itisafunnystoryifyouignorethetragicelementsandthesenseofdoom
Hey come on, this sort of wholesome positivity has no place in today's society...
Behomie
I tolerate everyone until the give me a reason to respect or disrespect them.
ragingphx
Why does the asian women look like DK from tokyo drift
OrkieBleu
Oh shit!
elijajaja
Hopefully not because all Asian women look the same to you.

Forget that? Why is the black man's career "graduate"
CelticmoonKate
I think its more them remembering their "glory days".
pleaseconsiderthatImightbejoking
same question
CelticmoonKate
graduating is a proud, glorious moment.
triumphintx
Cause she lived her life a quarter mile at a time
800lbJeezuz
Mmm, maybe a quarter slide at a time, given the context.
triumphintx
Ya that works a little better. I couldn’t think of a better quote from Tokyo drift.
AlmightyThor117
#2 looks like James Franco
LokiDoky
Just because you used to be younger doesn’t automatically command respect from others. There are some pretty fucked up older people.
LokiDoky
To all you motherfuckers that downvoted me
v
ConnectToReality
It's not that they were young, but these particular people did respectable things when they were young.
Wanderingmaniac
It does automatically command respect until they do something fucky. You don't start the other way round.
ilsalta
The problem is that the saying doesn’t imply that. It implies “no matter what”, and that’s where I can BS.
PandaLord200
Idk respect to the fireman, soldier and science guy. Don't look to fucked up to me
evilcarp
Yep, now get off my lawn you little shit.
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
I think they mean don't disrespect them just for being old. Which is an actual problem, unfortunately.
adrianenspired
fucked up younger people too. why not start from "I don't know you, but I'll treat you with basic respect" ?
Hemelsblauw
I go by this.
izzysage1616
I will treat you ok if I dont know you. However I will not respect a person until it is earned.
PandaLord200
Tru dat
nonepizzawithIeftbeef
I tOTaLlY hear you but that does also sound like an excuse a cunt would use to be cunty to people who have been around the sun more times.
Heavenissize17socks
Ima change my name to Cunty McCunterson…
nonepizzawithIeftbeef
It’s lovely, needing a new name myself got a couple of ideas in the works
TheGiggityGuy
Exactly. Respect is earned, not given,
MeowMyOvaries
I'd like to think perhaps many of or elders earned that respect with years , and years, and a lifetime of work and whatnot as many do
nonepizzawithIeftbeef
Sometimes there is a bit of both you see the world isn’t always as black and white as a cliche
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
They're talking about treating someone respectfully. That should be a given, unless they give you a reason not to.
meta666
But a lot of young ppl treat their elders with disrespect just because they’re old, which I think is the point. They are people too.
PandaLord200
I think the fireman earned it pretty well
Animorphs
Why? He could have been a terrible one. Or remembering his dope Halloween costume.
cottoncandies
A terrible firer fighter is still braver than the average person. It still took a lot to even get to that point.
PandaLord200
And everyone loves a dope Halloween costume
