    Default Old Folks Deodorant

    I tried to make something on my own and my Deodorant served as my inspiration.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Hmm.

    Pretty insensitive and inaccurate, I'd say.

    I quit trying to please everyone many years ago. when I found out the no matter what you do or say someone won't like it. Especially those who don't understand humor. No particular statement is being made by my attempt at creativity. If you have forgotten how to smile it's not my fault. But, thanks for your comment anyway.

    Wizard, I believe it's Ode De Geriatric. That's what my wife tells me.

    I guess anything less than an accolade merits an attack.

    I feel it misses it's intention.

    Crutches and old age? Very few elderly people use crutches.
    Bad hygene and old age? It a very cheap shot. An old stereotype.

    For what it is it's really skilfully done, but for me it's not funny.

    I know some elderly people where your product would be very useful. But they can't help that and I know how upset and humiliated they be if they saw this.

    I've seen plenty of elderly jokes that are very funny - they don't rely on such crude stuff as this.

    Let's just agree to disagree.

    you are very fond of this phrase when you want to halt discusion, and I for one am getting sick of it...

    lighten up Paul, its a drawing.. take it in context.. this is TG, not the guardian website

    I can quite equally say I know lots of elderly people who would just laugh - one of whom in this thread already has...

    if you want to be a politically correct control freak do what someone else did and start your own forum, ohterwise take things in the spirit they are meant

    Handrawn I expressed an opinion, I don't care if you don't like it.

    I said we could agree to disagree because we've both said our piece.

    I am no control freak. I have given an opinion, you can disagree with it.

    It'a pity you can't talk about the OP's drawing instead of me.

    And yes, I don't want childish arguments.
