pseudo-codgery

adj. Dubiously old-coot-ish.

Real citation: "Now I have heard Freeman’s voice recently in other films and I know he has not gotten as gravely as he is in this film. He even narrates the whole film with his pseudo-codgery vocals and it becomes incredibly frustrating to listen to. It sounds almost like when a very sick person rambles on about something, when you only called to check up on them."
(Sarah Bonilla, "Million Dollar Baby," http://www.smart-popcorn.com/review/606/)

Made-up citation: “Pseudo-codgery behavior isn’t exactly an epidemic, maybe because old people are close to death. Back to you, Joan!”
