Old age pensioner
I've just been round to the Barangay Hall, (local government office), to have some papers signed, and the Brgy Chairman asked me my age. A 'little old' (read frail) lady chipped in and said, "55." I told the Chairman to guess. He said, "Up or down?"
Before I could answer, the LOL chipped in again... people do that a lot here; and proudly announced that she was 72. I had to tell her that I beat her by a year, and that I am 73. I bought her lunch.
