Sometimes The Old Lady feels rather full of herself. She becomes opinionated. She gets mouthy.

“Hey, I’m entitled!” she snapped. “I earned it! I am The Old Lady!”

Her latest soapbox: Constructive Criticism.

“It’s still criticism,” she snorted, “and offering it when one hasn’t been asked presupposes that one thinks one’s self better than the recipient of our patronizing largesse. Maybe we could just tell each other all that we like about the thing, and give no notice or energy to what we do not like.

It’s all opinion, after all.”
