Sometimes but more often than not, they underestimate my age. They simply do not believe me when I am over 100 years old.

They should know how rude it is!

[acquirement]

Age is merely a number, is it not? If a person has lived 50 or 100 years, it's what they've done with those years that count.

[localgrandma]

Indeed and yet, some just do not understand.

It's enough to make me wonder if I should give a lesson on manners!

Etiquette and manners likely differ country to country, though it would be interesting to see how that is the case.

[localgrandma]

Or at least learn the basics of knowing how to say please and thank you. I think that should be enough to start.

[acquirement]

I certainly can agree with the sentiment. It's good practice to be polite, especially when engaging with others.

[localgrandma]

Although, how begs the question if anyone would be interested. I suppose most people wouldn't like to have a lesson taught about this.

[acquirement]

Most people don't like to be told they have no manners, no.

[localgrandma]

And thus, I will have to try to figure something else out.

Unless you can find something that makes teaching such a thing more enjoyable.

[acquirement]

I'm not a teacher myself, so I'm afraid that is something I'd have difficult with.

[localgrandma]

Then would you like to be my student in helping me find ways to make it more interesting?

[acquirement]

Are you asking me to be a test subject?

[localgrandma]

Yes but if you do not wish to be one, then I will ask no more.

[acquirement]

I suppose we can have a trial run, and if I don't deem it too uncomfortable we can continue.

[localgrandma]

Then let's give it a try and we shall see how it goes.

But I shall not leave you disappointed as I do have a reputation to keep.
