Seeing as how "senior" has no definitive age minimum (it all depends on where you are, who you are talking to, and what you are doing), accepting such a discount is, or should be, uneventful. Now if said places had a sign with "Senior discount to those 60 or older" or some such verbiage and you took them up on it, then that would not be cool.

Yeah, I'm often in a quandary. Do I take the student discount or the senior citizen discount?

Funnily, there's a few places I frequent that actually regularly give me freebies just because I treat them like human beings, unlike many of their customers.
Makes me feel warm and fuzzy everytime.

It's pretty insane
Governments seem to have gone from knowing nothing about computers to still knowing nothing about computers, and breaking every computer related law as a result

Laws doesn't apply to governments.

Just learn to accept that every government knows every detail about your life. Its a big pill to swallow but once its done - it's done! I for one welcome our new overlords!

It's about time the bank-robber look comes into fashion. Now I can walk the streets like that and not be ashamed or feared.

Hmmm, ok. I did a search before I posted it and didn't get any results for "Facekini".

Facekini aside, why are grown women waring floats on their arms? Are they really big enough to help?

Hi - I wanted to share an opportunity I think some (hopefully all) of you will find interesting. MasterCard is bringing their developer challenge, MasterCard N>XT, back to Toronto from October 4-5 at MaRS. This year developers are being challenged in groups of 3-5 to build cutting edge retail solutions. Thirty teams will be accepted to N>XT this year and will be competing for $30,000 and more in prizing. Teams will be working with wearable SDKs from our partners (like Bionym and Samsung) and MasterCard APIs. Registration closes September 18
