I was taught as a young kid the following

I asked Copilot about the term:
Quote: The term “old fart” is a colloquial and somewhat humorous expression used to describe an elderly person who is perceived as being out-of-touch or holding old-fashioned views12. While it can be used affectionately among friends or family, it often carries a slightly derogatory connotation1.
Is there a specific context in which you encountered this term?
Why only slightly derogatory? Why this term not entirely eschewed?
I wasn’t worried about asking about that term (old farts are not a protected species) but there are many others I wouldn’t even ask about.

I upvoted this btw, just to show this day and age it's still possible for people to disagree on stuff and still like each other.
And I hear what you're saying btw, so I reckon it's context dependent for some.

It's just unimaginative and lazy.

Why do some people think it's cool to have their motorcycle make unbelievably obnoxiously loud noise?

What I am totally baffled about is the new fad called the ?CaliLean?, where the front of the vehicle is raised.
It looks stupid and is very dangerous, also looks like a dog dragging it's ass along the road.

Agreed. I think the idea is that with the tilt of the vehicle, you're experiencing great luxury because you're reclined in the seat.
