Never too old to be kinky

I was messing with my bracelet (a little pair of handcuffs on a black leather cord) while waiting, which sparked this conversation with 2 old ladies (at least 70 yrs. old) sitting next to me.

Old Lady #1: Oh my, are those hand-cuffs?

Me: Yes, Ma’am.

Old Lady #1: You shouldn’t wear that. People might think you’re into kinky stuff like that. You don’t want to give them the wrong impression.

Me: Who says that’s the wrong impression?

She gets up without saying a word, just shaking her head as she walked away.

Old Lady #2: (pats me on the knee) Silk neck ties are so much more comfortable than handcuffs.

Tom Hiddleston reads When You Are Old by W. B. Yeats

When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
