32 witty, one-liner jokes about getting old to make you smile

10/08/2025 by Roy Sutton

Looking for some jokes about getting old, dear reader? Well, today I can offer you 32 of them.

Whether you’re young or old, I’m sure you’ll be able to relate to a few of them.

I hope you enjoy them all and I hope they make you smile. Certainly, they all made me smile.

And remember this; we all get older, but getting old is a state of mind much more than anything else. You don’t have to let the old man or woman in.

Anyway, take a few moments to read them all and then pass them on.

Jokes about getting old:

The older I get, the earlier it gets late.

Women rarely admit their age; men rarely act it.

I’m so old that my first car was a covered wagon.

How come everyone my age seems older than me?

I’m at the age where I can’t keep up with all the things I hate.

A wise man remembers a woman’s birthday but never her age.

I’m so old, I can remember when emojis were called hieroglyphics.

Regular naps will prevent old age, especially if taken while driving.

Ageing gracefully is the polite way of saying you’re slowly looking worse.

You know you’re old when dining out means catching the early bird special.

We were so poor growing up we could only listen to Simon or Garfunkel.

You know you’re old when people call at 9 pm and ask, “Did I wake you?”

I believe in loyalty. So, when I got to a certain age, I decided to stick with it.

My wife’s so vain, she’d rather pay full price than admit she’s a senior citizen.

I’d like to say I’m ageing like fine wine, but in my case, it’s more like a fine banana.

I like older women because they’re used to life’s disappointments, so they’re ready for me.

When you’re old, getting lucky is walking into a room and remembering exactly why you’re there.

Old age is when your old classmates are so grey, wrinkled, and bald that they no longer recognize you.

If it’s your birthday today, you should congratulate yourself. Especially if you’re still able to remember it.

The older I get, the more cults make perfect sense. Do you know how hard it is to make friends as an adult?

You know you’re getting old when you have more candles on your cake than friends at your birthday party.

The skill of the diplomat is the ability to tell someone to go to Hell in such a way that they’ll look forward to the trip.

Old age is when you’re faced with two temptations and you choose the one that will get you home by nine o’clock.

The best moment of a woman’s life isn’t giving birth, it’s seeing an old adversary and realizing how fat and ugly she is now.

When you’re young, you make a lot of noise just having fun. When you’re old, you make even more noise just bending over.

I wanted to look distinguished in my old age, so I grew a beard. Turns out the statement I’m making is more like, “Discount, please, I’m a senior!”

When I was a boy, I had a disease that required me to eat dirt three times a day in order to survive. Fortunately, my older brother told me about it.

When I was young, I did stupid things because I didn’t know any better. Now I know better, I still do stupid things, but I can’t help it.

I always feel better when my doctor says something is normal for my age, but then I remember that death will be normal for my age at some point.

I’ve reached the age where looking in the mirror is like checking the news. I know there’ll be some new developments I won’t like.

When you’re young, embarrassment is forgetting to zip up your fly. When you’re old, embarrassment is forgetting to unzip your fly.

As I get older and remember all the people I’ve lost along the way, I think to myself maybe a career as a tour guide wasn’t the right one for me.

Sarcasm Quotes

Me? Sarcastic? Never!

Zombies eat brains. You’re safe.

Well, that was almost interesting.

Am I free tomorrow? No, I’m expensive.

Stupidity is not a crime. You’re free to go

I’m not insulting you. I’m describing you.

I disagree, but I respect your right to be stupid.

Well, you never learn anything by doing it right.

I’d agree with you, but then we’d both be wrong.

If only closed minds came with closed mouths.

I stopped listening, so why don’t you stop talking?

I can only hope your day is as pleasant as you are.

I’m guessing you don’t get invited to many parties.

I’m returning your nose, dear! I found it in my business.

That joke is so old, I’m sure the first person to hear it fell off his dinosaur.

Oh, you’re talking to me. I thought there was something wrong with you.

If somehow you persuaded someone to marry you, they have my sympathy.

The trouble with you is you lack the power of conversation but not the power of speech.

From the moment I saw you, I knew I was going to spend the rest of my life avoiding you.

Yes, I walked away mid-conversation. You were boring me to death and my survival instincts kicked in.

You could shake my pelvis and call me Elvis, but I’d still be willing to bet no one spends time with you willingly.

Your flexibility amazes me. How do you get your foot in your mouth and your head up your ass at the same time?

Why you should put something away for a rainy day

10/08/2025 by Roy Sutton

Dear Reader, have you ever considered why you should put something away for a rainy day?

When you’re doing well and have a good income, it’s easy to imagine that the good times will go on forever and you can enjoy it all with the expectation that money will continue to flow in your direction without interruption.

But life’s not like that. Into every life, some rain will fall, as the saying goes.

Good times don’t last forever. Life tends to be cyclical, like the changing of the seasons.

The time to repair your roof is when the sun is shining, for winter will have its day and we must be prepared for inclement weather.

Savings matter:

When you get paid each month you must set some money aside, separated into three accounts, as follows:

You must be prepared to pay those bills that come in regularly; you must be ready for an emergency. Equally, you must start creating wealth, so that one day you’ll be able to retire.

Bill Payment:

You cannot live in the modern age without incurring bills.

Whether it’s utility bills, phone bills, TV subscriptions, mortgage payments or rent, credit card payments, food bills, repayments on a car loan, et cetera. You must set money aside to pay all those bills when they fall due.

Emergency Account:

As the saying goes, stuff happens.

And when stuff happens you must be prepared to deal with it. You must have an emergency fund you can tap into to deal with emergency repairs or even an unexpected interruption to your income. These things do happen.

Financial Freedom:

When you’re young, it’s easy to think that you’ll keep on working, if you must, to earn an income.

However, trust me, one day you will want to retire from work, or at least from the daily grind.

If you are to retire you will need some wealth.

The best time to start building wealth is when you’re young.

Start a 401K or pension whilst you’re young, pay into it regularly and with some luck and good financial management, you can enjoy a comfortable old age.

By starting young you will benefit from the magic of compounding. The impact of compound interest should not be underestimated.

Remember; it will rain:

Think of life in terms of the seasons and prepare accordingly.

Most people experience hard times at some point in their lives, particularly when they’re young.

You can be sure it will rain; the only question is when.

You will be able to weather the storm a lot better if you have a financial cushion in the form of some savings.

If you are lucky enough to have an income now, you’d do well to remember to put some of your income away for a rainy day.

It’s easy to squander your money thinking the good times will never end.

However, nothing lasts forever. So, my advice is, to be prepared.

Why you should put something away for a rainy day

21 inspirational quotes about moving on

10/07/2025 by Roy Sutton

Today let’s explore some quotes about moving on.

How often do we form an emotional attachment to the bad things that happen to us when what we should be doing is drawing a line under them and moving on?

Bad things happen to us all, and of course, they can be a bitter pill to swallow.

However, you can’t change what’s happened; only how you choose to look at what’s happened.

You can allow these things to define you, constrain you, and prevent you from enjoying the happiness you deserve.

Alternatively, you can say, “Pity me not. Stuff may happen but I’m a tough nut to crack. I will not let anything prevent me from enjoying my life as best I can. I value my self-esteem and my happiness more than I will allow unfortunate circumstances to throw me off course.”

The past serves only for the lessons it teaches us; it has no other bearing on the future. However bad the past may have been, that doesn’t mean the future can’t be better. You can’t change the past, but you can shape the future.

So never be constrained by anything that has happened to you. Just take it on the chin and move on.

Learn the lessons, of course, as they will make you wiser and stronger. Otherwise, focus on the future, don’t worry, and above all, be happy.

Nothing matters much, and few things matter at all.

Here are 21 inspirational quotes about moving on to reinforce today’s underlying message.

QUOTES ABOUT MOVING ON

It takes bravery to end a relationship. ~Leona Lewis

If it ain’t working, it’s time to move on! ~Lucius B. Wack

Part of the game is moving on. And you do. ~Chris Hughton

I do a good job of staying positive and just moving on. ~Katie Taylor

Moving on is a simple thing, what it leaves behind is hard. ~Dave Mustaine

I can enjoy anywhere, and I can leave it. Life is about moving on. ~Waris Dirie

Sometimes you have no choice but to move on for your own good. ~Tom Irwell

Grief is in two parts. The first is loss. The second is the remaking of life. ~Anne Roiphe

Moving on can be hard but, in time, you’ll adapt to your new circumstances. ~Betsy Plumb

Leaving is hard but a new chapter can re-energise you and lead to better outcomes. ~Joseph Crosby

Who can’t relate to the idea of leaving one chapter behind and moving on to the next? ~Mike Shinoda

Every day is a new day and you’ll never be able to find happiness if you don’t move on. ~Carrie Underwood

It’s time to say goodbye, but I think goodbyes are sad and I’d much rather say hello. Hello to a new adventure. ~Ernie Harwell

There’s always something to suggest that you’ll never be who you wanted to be. Your choice is to take it or keep on moving. ~Phylicia Rashad

I’ve been heartbroken. I’ve broken hearts. That’s part of life, and it’s part of figuring out who you are so you can find the right partner. ~Heidi Klum

You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing that we call ‘failure’ is not the falling down, but the staying down. ~Mary Pickford

To help yourself, you must be yourself. Be the best that you can be. When you make a mistake, learn from it, pick yourself up and move on. ~Dave Pelzer

As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn’t leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I’d still be in prison. ~Nelson Mandela

Forgiving does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead, forgiving what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future. ~Lewis B Smedes

You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don’t try to forget the mistakes, but you don’t dwell on them. You don’t let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space. ~Johnny Cash

Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have – life itself. ~Walter Anderson

15 inspirational quotes about society to get you thinking

10/06/2025 by Roy Sutton

Today, dear reader, let’s explore some quotes about society. I think the importance of society is not always fully appreciated.

People are social animals, and society is the fabric that binds us all together.

We don’t have to like each other, but we do have to get along with each other if life is to be tolerable and people are to feel safe and secure.

Getting along requires us to treat each other with respect, of course. Still, society cannot function without an accepted system of governance, a broadly shared culture, and everyone feeling that they are being treated fairly.

That does not mean people within a given society must be completely homogeneous. It does not mean that there cannot be differences. There are and will always be some differences between people within society, and that’s fine.

However, no group can stand completely apart from everyone else in society if society is to function well. You’re either part of a society or you’re not.

We all have a responsibility to society:

Suppose you choose not to be part of a given society for whatever reason. In that case, that’s your decision, and it’s perfectly reasonable to have a preference for living in some other society.

After all, that’s why people emigrate. They seek to find a way of life that’s more consistent with the way they would prefer to live. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

However, you cannot accept the benefits that come with being a member of a given society and then reject the obligations you have to your fellow citizens, which are a natural part of living within a given society.

Our fellow citizens matter too:

We must all strive to understand our fellow citizens and appreciate the reality of their existence.

The better we know other people, the more we will see them as people just like us with hopes and dreams and a desire to create a better world for their children.

Strip away superficial differences, and we are all the same. Well, I think so anyway.

Society must exist for the benefit of everyone if it is to have any meaning at all.

Benefits versus obligations:

Everyone should benefit from being a member of society, but that means we all must contribute to the society within which we live as well. And we must also respect our fellow citizens.

Those making the greatest contribution may derive the most significant rewards, but the strong should also lend a hand to the weak.

We all have a part to play, and we all gain when society functions well. If we all work for the common good, then society can benefit everyone.

The question to ask yourself:

Ask yourself this question: “What is my contribution to society and what will my legacy be for future generations?”

To think about it another way, for what will you be remembered? For what would you like to be remembered?

How is your contribution making the world you know a better place right now?

Here are 15 inspirational quotes about society to spark your thoughts.

Quotes about society (1-8):

I think the first duty of society is justice. ~Alexander Hamilton
The most violent element in society is ignorance. ~Emma Goldman
A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both. ~Dwight D. Eisenhower
The ultimate test of a moral society is the kind of world that it leaves to its children. ~Dietrich Bonhoeffer
He who is unable to live in society, or who has no need because he is sufficient for himself, must be either a beast or a god. ~Aristotle
You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty. ~Mahatma Gandhi
Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves. What is equally true is that every community gets the kind of law enforcement it insists on. ~Robert Kennedy
We must reject the idea that every time a law’s broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions. ~Ronald Reagan

Quotes about society (9-15):

There can be no keener revelation of a society’s soul than the way in which it treats its children. ~Nelson Mandela
Individual commitment to a group effort; that’s what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, and a civilization work. ~Vince Lombardi
Society as a whole benefits immeasurably from a climate in which all persons, regardless of race or gender, may have the opportunity to earn respect, responsibility, advancement and remuneration based on ability. ~Sandra Day O’Connor
Anyway, no drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we’re looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn’t test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power. ~PJ O’Rourke
Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we’re being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I’m liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That’s what’s insane about it. ~John Lennon
An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life. ~Robert A. Heinlein
No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable. ~Adam Smith

Change habits and you can change your life

10/05/2025 by Roy Sutton

To change habits requires discipline and recognition that change is essential if life is to improve.

So, is your life going in the direction you’d like it to go, dear reader? Perhaps, it’s not.

Somehow, you can’t quite achieve the results you’d like to achieve. Would that be true?

In the video included here, Bob Proctor explains that the reason you’re stuck and can’t get the results you want is likely to be because of a paradigm.

And what’s a paradigm?

Well, Bob goes on to explain what paradigms are and how they are formed.

He also explains how change can be achieved.

If change is something you’d like to achieve, then this is a really interesting presentation; it is fairly short but worth watching.

21 quotes about dreams and why they matter

10/04/2025 by Roy Sutton

Today I have some inspirational quotes about dreams for you, dear reader.

Dreams are so important, wouldn’t you agree?

Those dreams we have, particularly when we’re young, about what we could be as individuals and what our lives could be too.

Dreams are undervalued:

How many young people are discouraged from pursuing their dreams?

Maybe you’ve had this experience. You go to your careers officer in High School and explain that your ambition is to be an actor, a football player, a photographer, or whatever. They listen politely, and then they tell you to be more realistic.

The received wisdom is always like, “Oh, football is a tough profession; you might not make it. Have you thought about becoming an electrician?”

For football, you can substitute music, acting, theatre, writing, or any number of jobs people dream about building their lives around.

In short, youthful dreams are undervalued and often crushed before they can even see the light of day. How sad is that?

It’s true, you might not make it, of course, but it’s better to try and fail than to spend the rest of your life wondering what might have been.

Dreams matter:

The beauty of being young is that for most people, you have plenty of time to try things, make a few mistakes, and learn from your experiences until eventually, you find that thing that works for you and where you can make a difference.

You only get one life, so you have to live it on your terms.

We all need a vision of what our own lives could be, and then we have to live life with passion and enthusiasm in pursuit of our dreams, making the most of every minute.

Life is short:

Life is short, so you cannot afford to live your life based on someone else’s idea of what will work for you.

You must identify what it is you want in life, and then you have to go out there and get it if you can. And you have to keep on trying and refining your approach as you go.

Never let other people discourage you. And never accept an answer unless it’s the one you want.

Remember this; always trust your instincts.

If you feel you can do it then have a go. It doesn’t matter whether other people think you can do it, as long as you believe you can do it.

Of course, the converse applies as well. If it feels wrong to you then that’s probably true too.

So, here are 21 inspirational quotes about dreams to help you think about today’s underlying message.
