Intro to Old People 101

The Passing Lane:
Walking behind an Old Person, presents problems. They will gravitate toward you and cut you off.  They can feel your presence as you are getting near, then in an effort to get out of the way, they move over.  Unfortunately they have just moved in front of you. 

The trick is to pass them NASCAR style.  Go as fast as you can directly in line with the old person, then at the last minute switch to the other side of the hall and pass.  If they freak out and move to the other side of the hall, then that is a bonus.  They just got out of your way.  Be warned, you do not want attempt to draft them.  This will always turn out bad.  You don't want to get a nose full of that exhaust.

This is a very dangerous maneuver if done incorrectly.   You will be in constant danger, so be very careful.  Oldies are constantly crop dusting their way down the hall.  So there is the chance you could find yourself walking into an Old Person's fart.  Just maintain your speed, and hold your breath.

Class dismissed.
