If these guys are both geezers AND gubers, what would have to be missing to make them just one or the other? In other words, what differentiates a guber from a geezer and vice versa? Great post.

Geezer - old person, or one that acts like one (odd or eccentric)

Guber - yokel, bumpkin, silly person, kindhearted goofball (usually a term of endearment towards someone that acts this way)

So, yeah ... one can be both or either, regardless of age or actions.

Thank you, Pappy. Now I know where I fit into this life. My kids, grandkids, siblings, nephews, nieces, and a number of friends have used those terms to describe me many, many times, although their favorite term is "weird". When a number of 3, 4, or 5 year-old grandkids say: "Grandpa, you're weird!", you kinda think it might be true. And several years ago, one of my daughters got me a nice Father's Day card with hearts and flowers and it said "For a very, very special Father" on the outside. On the inside, it said "Mother says it's better to say special instead of weird".
