aarp is on my list. the shit list.

Earlier this week, I contacted AARP about the membership card I received in the mail. This is the email response I received from them:

Dear Ms. P,

Thank you for contacting us. Please accept our apology for the AARP membership invitation you received in the mail.

The names for membership solicitation come from a variety of mailing lists. AARP screens its lists carefully and requests that list suppliers provide only names of people age 50 and older. However, the information on some lists may be inaccurate. Your name may have also appeared on a special interest mailing list because you enjoy a particular hobby or pastime. AARP looks at age as well as special interests to help identify prospective members.

Please provide your full name, address and/or membership identification code exactly as they appear on the mailing you received recently to an AARP Member Service Associate at our toll-free number shown below. This will enable us to correct the problem.Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Sincerely,

M.

Was this letter suppose to be an apology? Because I see it more as pouring lemon juice on my open wound. First send me an AARP card, and then insist you sent it because I enjoy certain hobbies and pastimes. Well, I have declared war on AARP and will be focusing on embracing my youthful side. This includes switching out Billy Joel on my playlist for Taylor Swift, spending my evenings rollerblading (don't you EVEN act like rollerblading is not the height of coolness), and staying up past ten. Take that, AARP! Bam!

Also, has anyone from AARP ever seen me dance?
