    Opus, you will never become a grumpy ol’ poop, because you are an endearing, silly little penguin who overthinks just about everything. Take it from someone who knows: I was designated an official Old Poop already when I was in college!

    I’m thinking this is a ref to GHWB as VP. I don’t recall him doing very much smiling. Marginalized by Reagan’s White House staff, he was, indeed, a grumpy old poop.

    Hey, there’s nothing wrong with being a grumpy old poop.

    That joke would work now too. Just change the names.

    I always thought Poppy Bush must have been frustrated as VP. There he was, former head of the CIA, a finger in every pie, knowing all the world leaders, knowing and understanding everything that was going on, and working under Ronald Reagan, who knew only what he read in the Reader’s Digest in 1964, blindsided by everything coming down the pike, getting through it with a smile and a funny story.
