Flossie Dickey is 110 and Done With All of Us

Last week, a woman named Flossie Dickey celebrated turning 110 years old. She’s been here since 1906, and has seen more things than any of us could imagine. That also means she’s dealt with her share of bullshit.Flossie has 3 kids, 12 grandkids, 20 great grandkids and 15 great great grandkids.

Cameras showed up to her nursing home to interview her and Flossie wasn’t here to entertain them or even act like she wanted them to be there. The video interview is a gift to the cantankerous old person who lives in me.

Miss Flossie is basically me and I am Flossie. I also aspire to take as many naps as I can but the way life be setup, it’s a struggle and people won’t let me be!

Her plan for birthday 110 was to nap in peace, eat one bite of cake and chat with her inner circle. It was not to have a microphone and camera shoved in her face all early. Then the news folks sent the chirpiest most perky anchorwoman for this. I’d be annoyed too. Like DAFUQ are you so happy about right now?

BuzzFeed did us a favor and GIFFed Flossie’s look of “why are you here?”

Flossie Look

It also didn’t help that the reporter was asking her questions like she’s 5 years old. Y’all see how she didn’t even reply to a couple of the questions she was asked? She just sat there sipping whatever’s in her cup. FLOSSIE AIN’T GOT TAHM, BRUH.When the lady handed her flowers, though, and she looked at them like she couldn’t even be paid to bother, I hollered.

She ain’t here for our feelings and she has earned a right not to be. I need to get her one of my Giver of No Dambs tshirts. Lemme live to be 110, in Jesus mighty name. Shiddddd… I’d be telling people why they ain’t shit instead of “Good Morning.”

She is mad as hell at whoever set this interview up. It is 8:54am. That’s the first reason why this was wrong. It is the butt crack of mid-morning and you got her doing a TV interview. I BARELY wanna be up at this time and I’m supposed to be a young, virile 31. Imagine 110. Y’all better not even THINK about me, let alone say my name or set up some interview before noon. My dreams ain’t even settled yet at that time.

Flossie said she is tired.

Flossie Tired

ME TOO, GIRL. I’m so sick of people and things and stuff. I know you feel me. You’ve had to deal with over a century of boolsheet. I’d need naps every other hour too.

When the reporter asked her if she was excited for her party, Flossie hit her with a quick “not one bit.” Because you know she told them she didn’t want no fuss but they didn’t wanna listen. Now she gotta deal with Miss Perky and then later, all her family members, including the kids who are just gonna be making noise.

This is why her favorite thing to do is to have whiskey straight up.

Miss Flossie is the real MVP, man. She’s lived too long to give a damb about anybody’s feelings. In fact, they should thank her profusely for not cussing them out. She is so over all of us.

I fux with Flossie, man. Mood goals.

I fux with Flossie, man. Mood goals.

I love old people.

If you missed my ode to Miss Edith Childs, getchu some of that.

    “Not one bit”. I am rolling in here. I was over birthday parties after 21 so i can’t even imagine giving a crap about birthday number 110. You need to start a hall of fame for Flossie and Miss Edith and all of the other old ladies with not one f&*% left to give.

      THIS! I was like at 110 there better be some diamonds and muthaf&ing DONUTS. Good Morning Spokane need to come up out of pocket at 845A. You know they were there at like 630A to set up and annoy the sh&t outta miss Flossie.

    Flossie is the moon, the sun, the stars and the rain. She is all the elements combined. She is it. Everything. The ultimate in the pursuit of that Nan Dambs Left life goal. I love She.

    We must all bow down to her fukk deficient fabulousness.

    i love her! she is now my official mascot for older-age-hood. i am so proud to be getting there: at 61 i find myself at least a few times a day thinking ‘oh shit! did i really let those words come out of my mouth???’ words that i would have been appalled at unleashing in my 20’s now freely flow. take a lesson from us seasoned folks, young’uns…you’ll save yourself from years of stuff-that-you-shoulda-said.

    This has to be one of my favorite stories. I’m adopting (Ms) Flossie’s philosophy right now. I love her no answers and “not one bit.” I’m keeping this behavior along with the little girl who told her daddy, “Worry ’bout yo’self.” #mynewlifescript

    I knew this interview was going to be a mess when the reporter opened the newspaper right in front of Mrs. Flossie’s face! You know Mrs. Flossie didn’t forgive her for that slight. And the look of disgust on Mrs. Flossie’s face when she gave her them flowers…”if this heffa don’t git…”.

    Ok, so did anyone notice the intense Barren F&ck Field face Ms. Flossie gave when the cheerleader reporter ran down all the kids, grands, great & great squared grand kids?
    Reporter: Wow, you have all of them, you must be so busy!
    MS. Flossie’s Look: “Bish, I raised my three! The rest of them mofos ain’t my responsibility, now please take yo Bring It On wanna-be azz out of here and pass me that whiskey bottle on your way OUT.”

    Ps: Since when is it okay to call your Elders by their first name? Bammas just ain’t raised right.

    When that Chris chick came over with her dry ass hair talking about Ms. Flossie like she was the zookeeper and Ms. Flossie was a new exhibit at the animal park I became annoyed. I was waiting for her to tell us Ms. Flossie likes long walks and rubs on her belly. Damn, that lady is grown! Growner than anybody in that sadly decorated room. I would die in the middle of the party while the grandkids were on my lap out of spite if I were given a party with such shitty decorations. Do better y’all! 110 parties and y’all go get a banner from Dollar General and some grocery store flowers and balloons. As a whiskey connoisseur myself, plan her party at the Jack Daniels distillery. Then let her take a damn nap in peace.

  33. February 22, 2016 at 4:10 pm

    Just a few things I noticed…
    1. Flossie’s edges are still in tact.
    2. All these balloons look sad.
    3. There is a balloon and bowling pin in the laundry basket under the sink. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    4. She has lived in “multiple places in the Northwest. . . even Arizona!” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    5. Flossie ain’t drinkin no coffee.

    February 22, 2016 at 5:39 pm

    Ms. Flossie said “not one bit” about being excited that her relatives are coming to her party. They dropped her off 10 years ago and she still salty about it. BTW- If naps, whiskey, and not giving a fug are the secret to a long life, I’m well on my way to 100+ years old, too. #TeamCranky

When the paper came down Madame Flossie looked at her like No bish, you have ceased to exist. Hahahaha. Mz Flossie is my new spirit elder.

  38. February 22, 2016 at 6:48 pm

    Miss Flossie has me crying laughing. Between Miss Flossie and Miss Virginia McLaurin doing her jig with the Obamas, old people are giving me all kinds of life right now. I don’t know which one I want to be like. I feel like Miss Flossie is me after a hard day’s work. But Miss Virginia is me when I’ve got a lot to do for a day. I’ll wake up as Miss Virginia and flip it to Miss Flossie the second somebody sets me off. My Gram, Beulah Lucille, would be proud.

    Listen, you can’t be rolling up in a nursing home at 8 a.m and expect to get a good interview from anyone, let alone a woman who is 110 years old! I’ve been volunteering in a nursing home for 2 yrs and every single resident would have given her the exact response. A few might have even told her about herself for referring to her by just her first name. Poor woman doesn’t want flowers that are gonna die, sadly inflated balloons that will probably scare her to death if they pop in the middle of the night, or a party. She wants her heat turned up, food that isn’t bland, and a damn nap.

    What I love most is that old folk come in two flavors, Ms Virginia and Ms Flossie. Ms Virginia will make you her special mac and cheese anytime you tell her you coming over. Ms Flossie will kill you with one side eye if you dare interrupt her Tuesday bridge game. And don’t you dare bring her the wrong bourbon because you will get the same treatment little miss happy reporter got.
