Of course they do. There is no point in living long enough to be a GOM (Grumpy Old Man) or a GOG (Grumpy Old Git) unless you can do it properly. Young people want to live to be old. Not disposed of young because someone didn't like their tone of voice. Once you become a CD (Coffin Dodger aka anyone over 50, aaahem, sorry......60.) there is nothing that they can do to you that isn't going to happen anyway.
