Just a short excerpt since the whole post is so worth a read.

And let’s be clear: it doesn’t work when you’re three. It doesn’t work in kindergarten. That shit doesn’t fly when you’re a teenager either. Try telling a teacher, a cop, or your parents “I don’t know” while standing next to the front porch you drove your car into and insisting it came out of nowhere, and see how that goes.

But somehow, if you’re a seventy-nine-year-old man who brags about having aced multiple dementia screenings like they’re Mensa admissions, it becomes sacred. Untouchable. A full conversational dead end. The room closes around it like wet cement, setting hard before anyone thinks to pull their foot out.
