Today, while moving into my new place, I saw my new, elderly neighbor sitting on her porch. I cheerfully greeted her with, "Hello, how are you?" She simply rocked slowly in her chair and replied, "Just waiting to die." She was the most cheerful person I met all day. FML

Go back tomorrow and talk to her, cheer her up and ask her about her life. It's always interesting to listen to elderly people talk about how the world used to be.

I didn't realize it was a dick move for somebody to correct themselves #15. Maybe I'm out of the loop.

did you just bitch at 1 for correcting his own spelling? *starts chainsaw*

Calm your ****. He was correcting himself genie ass

Yes... Yes I did. *face palm*.. on the new app I don't notice the usernames as much. Sorry!

Thank you! Unlike OP's neighbor I'm not waiting to die.

It's okay Roevera, good to know someone has my back when the nazis come. Besides I think this is the longest thread I've had on one of my comments, so thanks!

"Roevera... *points to #33*... Attack!!!"

*catches chainsaw* c'mon guys death is too harsh a nice beating will suffice;)

Last dying words: don't kill grammar Jews..

Although it'll be good to know what she still enjoys & make her happier about her present. Else like in a movie that Dwayne Johnson starred in, she could actually be an undercover look-out sitting on that porch there! :D

Well, I can still hear screaming in the apartment next door...

This is the first time I've ever seen an Author reply. :/

I feel more sorry for your neighbor than you. That's so sad. :(

Aren't we all though? OP should now make a point to live her life to the fullest.

It's hasn't even been a day man. I'm sure you'll make some great friends in a few months.

"It will come sooner than you expect with that attitude...*wink*" and walk away. That's how you responded right?

So ficken true, if only I could talk to my grandparents. Sadly they only speak Spanish.

Sounds like you need to liven up your environment. Surround yourself with positive people and it will change your life.

Is there any other people around not waiting to die?

Don't worry, we recognize you anyway. You're the babysitter! :)

No no 49, she's the preschool teacher that was walking around the club with red & green shots saying "red and green, merry Kwanzaa!" but had no recollection of doing so, save for a video her friend took. (if I remember correctly) Oh wait you're trolling... damn should've noticed.

Omg! I'm remembered! Also, it looks like I did sign in, it just didn't show up in the app at first.

Just ask her if she needs any help, you're right next door.
