Tapping her patience

If he’s in that good of a shape, what kind of drugs does he need?

Same old song and dance!

Wait, wait, let him finish! I haven’t seen this one! Besides, they can do more damage with that cane than you think!

It’s the old “tap dance” routine, I know it well.

Eeeh? What? I can’t hear you, over all that tapping….

I have a shielded wallet. Now they want me to pay by phone so another way for crooks to get my info. Why not just post my info on a billboard and be done with it.

At least he has his cane ready

WABCO is a real company. Westinghouse Air Brakes Co. not drugs.

I had a short argument with a lady at a gas station a while ago. I used apple pay and tapped the screen with my phone. She asked me not to hit the payment box. I told her it says “Tap”. She said I didn’t have to. I left.

Only thing i like to tap is a sixtel of beer!

Looks to me like sump’n has already kicked in…

… take it home Grampa, show ‘em your shim-sham, shuffle and scuffle!

Wait until the cast of Riverdance shows up!

I need some of that WABCO in the morning

Well, the instruction was to “Insert, Swipe or Tap…”

Grandparents continue to embarrass grandchidren. It’s our job!

All the different stores have different card scanners.One card still needs to be swiped. One store only uses the tap. A lot of the stores have a sheet of plexiglass in front of the scanner., which makes it harder to read the prompts (especially when your wearing glasses). Some want to know if you want cash back, Most want to know if the amount is OK, One even wanted to know if I’d like to give it my phone number, so they could serve me better (((SERIOUSLY))?…..Anyway…the other day, a the drug store, I was reading the prompts out loud, I followed the the last one with “You do the Hokey-Pokey and you turn yourself around”…the cashier
