Asking for a *friend*:

At what age do we stop falling over & start having falls?

No, *for a friend*. Not me! I DID NOT HAVE A FALL!

Well, yes, since you ask, I did slip on a slimy surface & fall over, scoring a bloody knee, but that's *completely* different!

[repeats while rocking]

I'm old, but not THAT old,
I'm old, but not THAT old,
I'm old, but not THAT old,
I'm old, but not THAT old

[occasional sobbing]

🤔 It's not working

I'm ok, 'tis but a scratch, but... 👴

@thefathippy I think the threshold corresponds with the likelihood of breaking a hip if you fall over.
@thefathippy 🩹🫂 owie! (Coulda happened to anyone, but, those slimy surfaces are MEAN!!)

@thefathippy

I realised this morning that Shakespeare's villain Iago is an acronym for

I Am Getting Old

🤯😢

@thefathippy If you slip because you were on an unstable surfac... you are probably safe
@thefathippy when you stop getting up quickly. Hope your friend is OK
