Definition of Old

Offensive

OLD adjective

	In that stage of usefulness which is not inconsistent with general inefficiency, as an old man. Discredited by lapse of time and offensive to the popular taste, as an old book. 'Old books? The devil take them!' Goby said. 'Fresh every day must be my books and bread.' Nature herself approves the Goby rule And gives us every moment a fresh fool. Harley Shum
