Thread Name: BS: Who you calling elderly?
Subject: RE: BS: Who you calling elderly?
A geezer in the UK is just a bloke or chap. We would say old geezer to indicate agedness, but the two words are so often used together it's no surprise that geezer by itself has become associated with age. We also speak of diamond geezers aka terrific blokes or thoroughly decent chaps.
