Line 8:
An elderly person attacks someone or something, from a teenager to a monster, with an object like a [[Cane Fu|cane]] or a [[Handbag of Hurt|purse]]. Effectiveness of attack varies from annoying and harmless to actually taking down the target.
See also: [[Badass Grandpa]], [[Never Mess With Granny]], [[Old Master]], [[Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior!]] and [[Improbable Weapon User]]. Not to be confused with [[Racist Grandma]], though it can overlap.

Perhaps not a straight example, though, since Rafiki had already been established to be a kung-fu master, and we ALL know those are dangerous no matter how old they are...
* ''[[Ratatouille]]'' had the crazy old woman who tried to shoot the rats with a <s>rifle</s> shotgun, but completely and utterly failed to be [[Badass]].
