Vitamins used by very old people.
I saw a modern picture of Danica McKellar, my childhood crush. After seeing a note on the pic that she was 40, I reached for my Geritol.

Senior citizens. Could be used affectionately, humorously, derisively, or simply as a matter of fact depending on the speaker's tone of voice and whether s/he is a senior citizen.
John, give the Geritol crowd a break when you get on the bus. Those "Priority Seating" signs are there for a reason. It's very difficult for a senior citizen who needs to get around to do, say, shopping, to sit down or get up if s/he has sciatica and is forced to sit in the back of the bus.

An incompetent driver, almost always elderly that creates an ongoing road hazard by doing 25 in the passing lane, failing to use signals, ignoring the fact that green lights mean go, and switching lanes or pulling out in front of you with no warning. Despite AARP's propaganda to the contrary, they are as dangerous, if not more so than teen drivers due to failing senses and bad reflexes yet they get massive insurance discounts due to "driving experience" as opposed to the actual risk they pose to other drivers
Honey, I am going to be late, this Geritol Popper in front of me is doing 25 in a 45 zone.
Damn, that stupid Geritol Popper almost hit me. She didn't even look before she backed out onto the highway!
Joe Biden's nickname because he takes lots of multi-vitamins.
Republicans are upset Trump lost to Geritol Joe in the election.
Basically it would be the 'older' generation of folks that rely on "Geritol" vitamins to get around and stay healthy. Also known as "Blue Hairs", they can be seen hanging around casino's - usually drunk, reeking of smoke, and screaming at the bands that they are "too loud, turn it down!"
Wow - it looks like the "Geritol Generation: beat us to the free buffet this afternoon!

a moment in time where your brain fades and you cannot remember what you were saying, or cannot recall the meaning of something important. similar to a blond moment, but caused by age rather than hair color. sometimes occurs due to being impaired by weed, alcohol, or meds

1) People in their 30's and 40's used to refer to themselves as 'having a geritol moment' after the vitamin supplement marketed to elderly people-implying that one isn't young and stupid, but feeling old and stupid in the face of new and previously unfamiliar developments-like new computers, cellphones, and any other new realities...we should re-popularize the 'geritol moment' phrase...as it may catch on with even much younger people in the future when new major technological developments will begin emerge around the world every 72 hours...I wasn't the first person under 50 to have a 'geritol moment' and I'm sure I won't be the last to feel confounded, confused, and exhausted, in this rather perplexing day and age of rapidly changing trends and quickly emerging developments.
2) It could also be used to refer to how one functions without an enabling object, such as not recognizing a friend on the street or being able to read a text-message without contact lenses or glasses.
3) And by now we can also refer to our older smart-tech devices as having geritol moments of their own when they become worn out or when their batteries are losing power.
1) "This new cellphone (or TV, entertainment system, computer, programing language, slang phrase, text-spelling, tax-form, air conditioner, car, website, workplace policy, daylight savings time, jet-lag, weapons system...etc) is so complicated and unfamiliar to me that I've been having alot of geritol moments with it this past week...it's confusing and exhausting."
2) "Sorry I didn't wave hello to you the other day, it's always a geritol moment when I'm not wearing my contact lenses. I didn't recognize alot of people at first that day."
3) "My computer was having one geritol moment too many and I had to get a new one-so now I'm having the geritol moments trying to get used to this new computer."
