I always seem to get behind them in security or when they're in row 8 and I'm in 24.
It happened to me last week at SFO. I was in 4C and from the moment I entered door 1L it took me 10 minutes to get to my seat. I love old people, because we will all get there eventually. But, I wonder why they are given early boarding by all airlines as a result of the fact that they tend to slow boarding down...sometimes significantly...while stretching turnaround times.
