Bill Cosby "I'm 76 and Tired"
I'm 76. Except for brief period in the 50's when I was doing my National Service, I've worked hardsince I was 17. Except for some some serious health challenges, I put in 50-hour weeks, and didn't call in sick in nearly 40 years. I made a reasonable salary, but I didn't inherit my job or my income, and I worked to get where I am. Given the economy, it looks as though retirement was a bad idea, and I'm tired. Very tired.
I'm tiredof being told that I have to "spread the wealth" to people who don't have my work ethic. I'm tired of being told the government will take the money I earned, by force if necessary, and give it to people too lazy to earn it.
I'm tiredof being told that Islam is a "Religion of Peace," when every day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters, wives and daughters for their family "honour"; of Muslims rioting over some slight offense; of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren't "believers"; of Muslims burning schools for girls; of Muslims stoning teenage rape victims to death for "adultery"; of Muslims mutilating the genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah, because the Qur'an and Shari'a law tells them to.
I'm tiredof being told that out of "tolerance for other cultures" we must let Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries use our oil money to fund mosques and mandrassa Islamic schools to preach hate in Australia, New Zealand, UK, America and Canada, while no one from these countries are allowed to fund a church, synagogue or religious school in Saudi Arabia or any other Arab country to teach love and tolerance..
I'm tiredof being told I must lower my living standard to fight global warming, which no one is allowed to debate.
I'm tiredof being told that drug addicts have a disease, and I must help support and treat them, and pay for the damage they do. Did a giant germ rush out of a dark alley, grab them, and stuff white powder up their noses or stick a needle in their arm while they tried to fight it off?
I'm tiredof hearing wealthy athletes, entertainers and politicians of all parties talking about innocent mistakes, stupid mistakes or youthful mistakes, when we all know they think their only mistake was getting caught. I'm tired of people with a sense of entitlement, rich or poor.
I'm really tiredof people who don't take responsibility for their lives and actions. I'm tired of hearing them blame the government, or discrimination or big-whatever for their problems.
I'm also tired and fed up with seeing young men and women in their teens and early 20's bedeck them selves in tattoos and face studs, thereby making themselves un-employable and claiming money from the Government.
Yes, I'm damn tired.But I'm also glad to be 76.. Because, mostly, I'm not going to have to see the world these people are making. I'm just sorry for my granddaughter and her children. Thank God I'm on the way out and not on the way in.
There is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us sends it on!
This is your chance to make a difference.

Not Bill Cosby, obviously.
Personally, I'm tired of people ranting about things they can't, or won't, learn about properly. I'm tired of seeing whole religions tarred and the actions of a very few blown way out of proportion. I'm tired of people who had a life full of success assuming nothing bad happens to people who don't deserve it. I'm tired of the people assuming that every problem can be solved with a prison sentence or a bullet.
And I'm really tired of old folks blaming it all on "kids these days," just like every generation since the dawn of time.
Thanks "Bill Cosby" I haven't heard an old guy complaining like that since about an hour ago.
I wonder why some people seem to grow wiser and kinder as they get older and others just get angry at the world? But I'm sure its the world's fault. And "Bill Cosby" I hope I'm nothing like you when I'm 76.
Frankly I'm sick & frickin TIRED of the unending LIES, useless WHINING, and the sense of victimized ENTTITLEMENT that conservatives consistently INDULGE themselves in/with.
What a bunch of bitter cry-babies. And how frickin absurd and nasty to attribute this to Bill Cosby of all people. Of course I get it: Bill Cosby is BLACK, so let's *use* his good name to glorifying our racist bigoted whining screed, even though Bill Cosby had f*ckall to do with it.
Nice LIES you hypocritical assholes! Way to go. As you forward your nasty whining self-absorbed, self-indulgent diatribes pushed out to you by lying rightwing think tanks (sponsored by uber-1%er, the Koch brothers), hope ya have a great time at Church this Sunday... where you'll all feel ever so piously self-righteous and snobbily pat yourselves on your backs for being such "great Christians."
boo-yah! Y'all make me TIRED. TIRED of having to live on the same planet and in the country as YOU bitching moaning selfish jerks.

Shit, why stop at Bill Cosby? Why not Amos and Andy?
Whoopsie! Missed Valeyard's link.
I'm tired of idiots being too goddamn lazy to spend 3 seconds fact-checking a DOB before they attribute something written by a self-proclaimed 76-year-old to a famous guy who is only 74.
(I mean, it took me like THREE SECONDS to Google Bill Cosby's age - come ON, people.)

If you got the BOGUS email, it's time to hit DELETE!
There's an email floating around - entitled "I'm 76 and tired" - purportedly sent by me. I did not write the email, I did not send the email, I'm not 76, and I don't subscribe to the ugly views expressed in the email. We are coming up to an important anniversary on Sunday, which is a day when we should all come together. Whoever wrote this email is not thinking about our country, or what is important. If you get the email, it's time to hit DELETE.
