    When you get spammed for Medicare supplementary plans. When AARP sends you the invitation to join (it will arrive right around your 50th birthday. How do they know?)

    When the 21-year-olds that you work with tell you that you're boring when you tell them that getting drunk is boring.

    .....you are going to a concert this evening at 8pm and you're planning on taking a nap after work so you can stay awake for the whole concert.

    Not a Joke. Leaving work at 2. Taking a nap. Going to see Greta Van Fleet at 8.

    You feel like the days, weeks and years are going by too fast.

    When you and your spouse (or SO) stop buying gifts for each other, because you already have bought whatever it was you wanted.

    I have been carrying one for the past 2-3 years.

    Pink no less, because I am a secure man. I'm also colorblind, so it doesn't really matter to me.

    I feel old when I catch myself saying “ I use to wear that” or “ wow that’s back in style”.

    Spice girl shoes are back ( platforms)
    When you see teenagers wearing fila and champion attire... and you already been there done that.

    When you hear backstreet boys have been around for over 20 years.

    You know you're getting old when dinner conversations revolve around body functions (or lack of), what new meds the doctor has put you on, and what Medicare plan you're going to sign up for in December.

    Every day. I'm 21. But with epilepsy that made my mind and some days my body that way

    When you hire a cleaning person and a lawn service because although you have the time to do these things, you no longer have the energy.

    I don't have the time, nor the desire. Still have to hire someone...

    You hear your favorite song from high school on the classic rock station, at first you think it's ridiculous that they'd put a song that isn't even that old on the classic rock station, then you remember how long you've been out of high school 😬
