    When all I want to do is watch a movie, but I have to ask my 11 year old to turn on the tv, surround sound and netflix for me because I can't figure it out. And which one of the 5 remotes do we have controls the volume???

    I thought I was the only one that had to do this!!! :sad:

    You win your age bracket in a race . . . because nobody else as old as you entered.

    I have 4 day hangovers.
    I lok at the Top 40 list and have no idea who any of the bands are. But I do know who Katy Perry is.
    I pee when I sneeze.
    I have to pee when I do jumping jacks.
    I have to get up in the middle of the night to pee.

    you start getting advertisements from AARP
    you qualify for the senior meal at Denny's
    you are at your eldest child's 30th birthday party
    you take naps in the afternoon on weekends
    you talk about things that happened 30 years ago and you were an adult

    ... the radio host says they're going to play some old school music, and you remember buying the CD.

    ... your child is mystified when you tell her you were alive before cell phones existed.

    ... you meet another adult who is still young enough to not know the sound of a busy signal (true story).

    ... there are no more reruns on TV because you can't remember any of the shows you watched. (A perk of being old, according to my dad, who will be 75 this month. :bigsmile: )

    I'm technically not old but I felt old when I heard The Lion King was 20 years old. Felt like just yesterday I was a kid watching with my parents singing The Lion Sleeps Tonight. I told that to my dad and he was really surprised.

    Hangovers were a minor inconvenience
    5 hours sleep per weekend was standard
    8086's were fast PC's
    Mobile phones weren't even thought of let alone used by school kids
