Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior!	comment	Many senior citizens in fiction believe that the rules of manners and society no longer apply to them once they reach a certain age. Essentially, "I can get away with anything, because I'm old!" When racist or sexist statements are involved, this may be a case of a person experiencing temporal Values Dissonance in his own lifetime. Or he's just a Jerkass who no longer feels obligated to play by society's standard rules. Sadly, this too often is a case of Truth in Television, but it can also be a case of a young person interpreting the reaction to their own rudeness as a "rude old person being a jerk to me". Also, senility is less common than one has come to expect, so anyone with wrinkles and gray hair can use this as Obfuscating Insanity. Often they enjoy it so much they do it all the time. When Elders Attack, you can never tell if it's a crazy one or a Retired Badass telling you to get the hell off his lawn. See also Grumpy Old Man, When I Was Your Age..., Evil Old Folks (when this goes too far, and moves from impoliteness to villainy) and Curse of The Ancients (when a senior tries to be impolite but fails comically because they lag behind in the curseword fashion industry for half a century or so). May result in Racist Grandma. On the flip side, it can also be a trait of the Cool Old Guy, or its female counterpart. In Real Life, rudeness by seniors may be due to Alzheimer's or dementia. People with Alzheimer's disease may become agitated or behave aggressively as the disease gets worse. This agitation and frustration may lead to the senior making rude remarks, even if this is out of character for them. Similarly, seniors with dementia may become agitated and make offensive or inappropriate comments.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_17fa5f0a	comment	Muriel in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows gets away with insulting just about everybody, all while repeatedly informing them that she is one hundred and seven. Although it's implied that she's one of the wealthier members of the family, so that might also have something to do with it. As for the Harry Potter series, this trope is averted with Albus Dumbledore, who's over one hundred years old himself but always infallibly polite, even to Voldemort.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_1b386512	comment	Happosai of Ranma Â½. Then again, he's been screwing politeness his whole life (except around girls he's hitting on), so his seniority is really a secondary factor. And sadly as one of the most powerful martial artists in the world, nobody can really restrain him in any way (unless they bring panties). It should be noted though that while the females as well as his students act respectful around him when he is able to hear them, Ranma is rude, brutal, and blunt towards Happosai (as long as he isn't female which will end with him/her being molested), making him pretty much the only one able to actually keep him from causing chaos.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_1bd69d53	comment	In The Adventures of Pete & Pete, Big Pete noted in the episode, "When Petes Collide", that Dad never looked forward to Grandpa's visits due to the fact that despite now being married with two boys of his own, Grandpa still treated him like a kid, regularly condescending and dismissive towards him. Things got worse in the course of the episode as he caused a rift between Pete and Pete over who would inherit the family bowling ball. It took Mom demanding that Dad finally stand up to his father and get the boys to make up or else she would stand on the roof until a lightning bolt would track down the metal plate and her head and blow her to Kingdom Come.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons: Grampa Simpson basically has no filter. The most notable instance of this was when he visited Bart's class for Grandparents' Day. His actions ranged from interrupting all of the other speaking grandparents with his rude commentary, poking fun at Martin's weight, spitting on the floor, and bopping Mrs. Krabappel on the head while calling her "knothead". Agnes Skinner is outright hostile to anybody who crosses her path (her own son getting the worst of it). Mr. Burns might fall into this category when he's at his most affable.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_3e5de40b	comment	Doctor Kelso from Scrubs, the Dirty Old Man Dr. Jerk described by others as a product of his time, thinks nothing of being ruthlessly nepotistic towards his patients, has an apparently insatiable sexual appetite with boundaries that disturb his fellow workers (much to his amusement), and has no qualms about randomly bringing up very offensive topics during small talk, such as making extremely morbid jokes about dead patients that horrify everyone around him (much to his confusion) and casually asking others to accompany him to Donkey Shows. It's implied that he does this simply because this is how everyone perceives him and because it makes his job easier. One episode is centered on what is supposedly the one day a year his wife lets him have sex with her, where his behaviour does a complete 180 and he acts extremely nice and is willing to do whatever employees ask of him (implying his usual behavior is merely a result of You Need to Get Laid). Turns out the thing about his wife was a lie and he does this so that people save all of their requests for that one day and leave him alone the rest of the year. One episode shows that his behaviour is a facade that he puts on because without everyone in the hospital united against a common enemy, they just spend all their time fighting and arguing with each other and no work gets done. In later episodes, after he retires, he actually admits to Dr. Cox that he likes him and they become friends. He's also a lot less mean, though he is still rather snarky and even gets away with getting free muffins every day and stealing a table and chairs from the hospital cafeteria. In a direct use of this trope, at one point Dr. Kelso says to Dr. Cox, "Let me make this clear, Perry- I'm old, and I don't care what people think of me." Then he farts, turns around to the patients waiting in the room and says, "That was me, folks."

At one point his son points out that, since he's 63 years old, he isn't technically a senior citizen yetnote in Canada, where every second of the show takes place, 65 is that magic number, though one government suggested it should be raised to 67, but Oscar completely ignores this.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_42c05590	comment	Grandpa Wolfe from Rocko's Modern Life: He definitely hates Wallabies & Kangaroos, and he acts hostilely towards Rockonote though he apparently thinks Rocko is a beaver. Even with Grandpa Wolfe's incredibly poor eyesight, Rocko still wasn't safe. Heffer's grandmother was apparently very nasty as well. It's revealed that she died and went to Hell but wouldn't have it any other way. This trope was surprisingly deconstructed in a later episode when Rocko and Heffer got stuck on a senior citizens' cruise with Grandpa. When Rocko complained about how Grandpa treated him, another senior reminded him that many seniors have to deal with a lot (aches and pains, losing a loved one, etc.), so they may not be as cheerful as a result. Rocko ends up going through this as well when they end up in the Bermuda Triangle and he and Heffer magically turn old as a result.

(At one point the narrator explains that they don't think of themselves as old, but they take every possible advantage of other people's perception of them as such.) Note that they have the advantage of being witches. Nanny Ogg is also the maternal ancestor to a sizable portion of Lancre. The locals might not be fooled by the witches. They certainly don't regard them as being any kind of infirm. The wizard Windle Poons from Moving Pictures. "I'm an old man, and I'm hungry!" Hells, Wizards in general are like this. Most of the Faculty is past retirement age. Cohen the Barbarian, who has the advantage of being good enough at being a barbarian hero that he survived to old age, and he has a huge sword if people don't catch the hint. Topsy Lavish, "a Mark One Feisty Old Lady" in Making Money, has "a forthright way of speaking which flirts with rudeness, and more importantly flirts with flirting". Played with when it comes to the unconventional Mrs Cake. She is a minor and short-going-on-medium recurring character who is definitely pushing into "the Other One's" traditional territory of judgement and foresight... who terrifies priests, wizards and postmen alike. By being both stubbornly, aggressively and technically Very Useful at them, while taking none of them too seriously. Being a seer helps. She's utterly destroyed those she goes against.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_526d4c5c	comment	The computer game Knights of the Old Republic: Jolee Bindo, a Jedi knight who is at least sixty years old and probably quite a bit older. When asked questions about his past, he will deliberately launch into long, semi-relevant monologues. One of his best lines is "I'm old, dammit! I'm entitled to be enigmatic when I want to be!" Kreia is a bitter old Zen Survivor, callously ridicules everyone and everything, openly mocks the GFFA's concepts of morality, casually commits Mind Rape on your crew, and is completely open with the fact she's running The Plan with your character as the central piece. She justifies it by saying, in effect, that she's seen it all, and hates it all. She is also a Sith Lady so her lack of politeness is pretty understandable. Canderous Ordo is somewhat younger than the two above, but he's around sixty in the second game. In his case, it's less a lack of manners due to his age and more a cross of his Proud Warrior Race placing a high value on Brutal Honesty mixed with how a lifetime of battles means he's Seen It All.

Subverted - or maybe even played even straighter - when he reveals that his entire persona is a facade that keeps him from being assassinated: why would his noble rivals need to kill him if he's an old, senile, presumably easily manipulatable ruler? Belkar, who had already liked him before this, promptly began idolizing Shojo.

Not to mention one of Jerry Seinfeld's many bits on old people. In this one he comments on how it seems that, once people reach a certain age, they don't look when they back their cars out of driveways anymore. It's like "'Look out everybody! I'm old, and I'm backing out!. I've survived, let's see if you can!'" It's difficult to tell whether George's parents are using this trope, or if they're just Jerkasses, but Jerry does seem surprised when his parents mention how horrible the Costanzas are because, "They're from your age group. I didn't know you could detect abnormal behavior among your own kind."

Another episode has Malcolm working for an elderly neighbor who fits this trope. The family's grandmother, Ida is made of this trope, along with Racist Grandma. She's a borderline case of Evil Old Folks. The first one is an interesting case, because Reese refuses to give up the changing room and actually gets into a physical fight with the old lady (and Malcolm gets involved, too). She is portrayed as being totally in the wrong, blatantly trying to use her age as a tool of manipulation. It pretty much works: when others catch them fighting, the boys find themselves in a fairly indefensible position and are seen as being total monsters assaulting a poor old woman.

He was rude and never stopped complaining about how things used to be better in the old days because you could be openly racist and there weren't any gays. The guy seriously never stopped complaining. Black Mage ended up pushing him out of an airlock.

I have to go buy a single piece of fruit with a coupon and then return it, making everyone wait behind me while I complain!" In the card's defense, Farnsworth has been declared dead at least once.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_af6a4464	comment	The Secret World: Dame Julia Beatrix Tyburn, on top of being a no-nonsense military commander with experience dating back to World War II, is also an extremely prickly presence with no interest in social niceties and will often insult you over the phone even when she's complimenting you on your abilities. For good measure, any attempts at speaking to her outside missions will usually result in her snapping at you for attempts to fraternize. Old Joe might be a fairly laid-back old-timer, but he's not above prodding you with his walking stick if he feels you're moving too slowly - usually while grumpily remarking "some of us aren't getting any younger!" Eleanor Franklin is very free with her opinions, old age and several decades spent alone in a Haunted House having left her with little regard for social graces: among other things, she happily calls the admittedly slow-witted Deputy Andy "gormless", remarks irritably on the "mumbo-jumbo" of the local Wabanaki tribe, snarks that it's too late for the local priest to save her soul, and quips that the parties she used to go to weren't actually orgies. For good measure, Sheriff Helen Bannerman's sole attempt to call her Ellie ended in Eleanor giving her a rant that began with "I remember when you were learning to walk..." Khalid, the ancient hermit of the dunes, when he isn't being an aloof All-Powerful Bystander. To put things in perspective, most quest-givers will absently voice their mission briefings to no-one in particular without expecting you to actually do anything about it; Khalid is not one of them, and gets very irritable when you don't get his drift. Olga Dimir has no respect for anyone or anything, and may actually be mentally ill if her letter-writing habits are any evidence. Over the course of her scenes, she loudly voices her rabidly anti-supernatural views to complete strangers, slaps her adult son around for making mistakes, and does everything possible to make you feel unwelcome short of actually spitting in your face. Octavian the Eagle, having been seventy years old for the last two thousand years, has stopped giving a shit about everything except sleeping and waiting for the apocalypse to kill him. As such, any attempts to rouse him end with him very pointedly ignoring you; when you finally get his attention, he spends his first cutscene yelling at you to just leave him alone and issuing an extremely bitter Cluster F-Bomb to everyone trying to make him save the world. SaÃ¯d is so old that he's seen empires rise and fall a hundred times, so it doesn't matter what faction you're from: he's not impressed, and he'll say it to your face. He eventually does become impressed with how thoroughly you manage to screw things up, though.

Their first incarnation, which was the oldest-looking of all, was particularly fond of the trope. Since their later incarnations tend to look younger, they can't get away with it as often anymore. Ten summarizes it pretty well: The Twelfth Doctor once again looks like an old man and returns to form. For instance, when Danny Pink insisted that his name was not "P.E." and that he was a math teacher, the Doctor blamed a bad memory. "Demons of the Punjab" has Yaz's grandmother Umbreen, who's at least in her eighties in the present day and does things like calling Yaz her favourite granddaughter in front of her sister Sonya, and, at the end, when she sees the faded henna on Yaz's hands, bluntly remarks that the design is terrible.

In addition to her, the third game gives us the grouchy and unemployed Victor Kudo, and Investigations 2 gives us the better tempered, but still sharp-tongued Bonnie Young. In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney â€“ Spirit of Justice, Nayna, who's an elderly-looking servant to Princess Rayfa of the Kingdom of Khura'in, is never heard speaking to Rayfa, since she only whispers answers to her questions in her ear, but becomes much more condescending and abrasive to Apollo(who's in his early twenties) when she takes the stand in the game's final case. Subverted when it turns out that she's actually Amara, Rayfa's mother and the former queen, who not only is genuinely nice and was merely putting on an act, but is only 44 years old.

Doug is assigned to a woman named Mrs. Whackhammer, who initially refuses to talk, and then blows up on him. Later on, Doug realizes her hostility may be her trying to mask how lonely she really is. At the same time, Doug is supposed to do a history report on one of the town's mayors, and upon some research, finds out that Mrs. Whackhammer actually knew him.

Whenever he gets the chance to use his elderly magical disguise Emrys, he cheerfully insults everyone who gets in his way, especially Arthur and others who get on his nerves in his daily life. He also goes all out with his magic which he normally has to keep hidden, sometimes attacking enemies even when it's not strictly speaking necessary. One example is when he's surrounded by a bunch of Knights, all of whom are close friends, but often like winding him up. So he knocks them all out and uses them as a staircase to climb onto his horse.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_f5799bd9	comment	On The Critic, Jay's father Franklin acted insane almost constantly. His wife used the "He had a stroke" excuse. Once admitting immediately that he hadn't really, and they just said that to explain it. This wasn't because Franklin was elderly, though; the man was insane. A brief glimpse into his mind revealed he drove like a maniacal Jerkass because he was dodging Donkey Kong's hurled barrels with the car horn as the jump button.

Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior! / int_febf1ff3	comment	Pepper Ann's grandparents are both pretty cranky and complain a lot of the time. At the end of one episode, they come to visit unannounced and criticize everything. Pepper Ann had spent the episode learning An Aesop about respecting the elderly, and repeatedly tries to remind herself of that lesson before her mother informs her that being old has nothing to do with this, and that they've been this way their whole lives.
