I was at the supermarket this morning and this eldery man
was walking around with his mouth hanging open. Now I
usually laugh at stupid things, and things I'm not suposed
to. I know its not right but that's my nature. I really
didn't laugh at this guy. Okay I might have chuckled a
little bit. But it wasn't the usual bottom lip that
hangs open look. It was that look that most elderly
people have. The whole entire jaw drop look. Like
as if his jaw was stuck in that position. As if he
had lock jaw. I was just curious if this is a condition
that some people get when they age, Or is it that
they can't help it? It's a look that makes them almost
seem like they're walking in anger,or frustration LOL.

It sounds like the poor chap was getting over a stroke,or has parkinsons disease or something of the kind,or it could be arthritus a very painful condition laugh I think you need to understand what it is like to get old and just hope people are kinder to you then you were to him.

If it counts for anything, this wasn't a discussion I started
to poke fun at old people at all. I wasn't walking around
the store laughing and pointing at the guy. Yes it did make
me smile or chuckle a bit, but I was really curious as to
what causes something like that to happen to a person. I
never thought of a stroke, or any of the other symptoms that
you described. I'm well aware of the fact that our bodies
respond and handle things differently with age. Sme of us
end up worse off than others. I have seeb people with their
mouthes open like that in the past and thought nothing of
it. So this time I really wanted to know what can cause such
a thing to happen. I knew the guy wasn't just walking around
like that for the hell of it.
