These Irish kids' definitions of 'old' will depress you

“Forty is kind of old.”

YOUTH TUBER ENLISTED a group of Irish children to discuss old people.

Among the topics they touched on were what old people do all day and at what point you can be considered old.

Some choice quotes?

Forty is kind of old.

Old people sometimes wear funny perfume.

“Old people are smelly ’cause they’re in the hospital for a long time.

THE NERVE.

It also includes other cheeky observations and some pretty dead-on impressions of auld lads.

Kids today, eh?
