Yea, it's funny how they do that. Sometimes you gotta throw them for a loop just to keep it interesting and remind them that you're still just as alive as they are.

I don't like to be the topic of discussion, so I try and not think about it.

Most of my coworkers seem to regard me as the sometimes cranky old curmudgeon in the group. Beyond that, if people do think of me that way I'm not aware of it (which probably means they just don't want to risk saying it when I can hear them).

I was given the name Grumpy when I was patching in my first motorcycle club.
Most folks say "well that makes sense ".
Intolerant may be a more fitting description though Grumpy works.
I noticed that folks seem to enjoy it when they've hung a name on you that you obviously don't like.
So I just went with it.
