believe it or not, the first time i ever felt "old" was when i was 24 and i went to a hole concert and everyone there was a 12 year old girl. it was like a hannah montana concert on heroin. and i realized for the first time that i was NOT part of the youngest generation anymore.

these days i'm just happy when i can pass firm stool.

When an almost 28 year old tells me he is feeling old. I am 42, and was feeling pretty damn good till a minute ago. Thanks Karmatornado!

Nice seeing you by the way!!

I'm 18 but occasionally my younger cousins will visit and they'll have some new toy with them that can do all sorts of amazing things and I think back to when it was just Barbie with a Hairbrush

Also all the cartoons they watch are Anime and really violent. So then I remember the days of The Powerpuff Girls and Dexters Labratory.

Then of course there's the sexualisation of dolls for girls these days that kinda makes me glad I'm not a tween today.

They're horrible. I saw these "Bratz Babies" dolls and they were smaller versions and they had leather bikinis and jackets on and their names were Suga and Spice.

I mean, it's bad enough to have the whorish bigger version but putting the BABIES in leather? Wtf is wrong with toy manufacturers these days??

I'm in decent shape and have a fun personality, and don't "act" too old. I'm used to being an authority figure and all that good stuff and being called Mr. or Coach or what not, but this weekend an event unfolded that made me feel old for the first time in my life (I'm turning 28 next month) I was getting back from the races and a friend of mine called me to meet him at this bar and grill near my house. I meet him and we're playing billiards and having beverages and nachos when my buddy and I notice these two young breezies looking our way and kind of giggling. My friend says we should go talk to them. So my friend and I go over there. Right away she says hey aren't you coach so and so, and I respond yes how did you know. She said I used to be a cheerleader at the high school you coach at my Junior year, and me and my friend were trying to figure out if that was you, I just turned 21 this year. Oh I felt so old and like such a dirty old man, it was ridiculous. So now that i've shared my story when was the last time you had a situation that made you feel archaic?

Your generation will probably live to at least 100, so you haven't reached the 25% mark yet.

i seriously cannot fathom how there was such a fuss over barbies being evil for our self-image, but this goes unnoticed. really?

The first time I felt REALLY old was a few years ago when a 21 year-old tried to holla at me (I was 32 at the time) and I tried to avoid him like the plague. Finally, he was like why won't you date me? Cuz he was fine as hell, 6-2, thick and a basketball player at a local college. Finally, I had to tell him, "Honey, I'm almost 12 years older than you." His response was: "I don't care I like older women." WTF???? But I just couldn't do it. LOL! But I'm noticing more and more younger guys going after older women. It's about damn time.

Also, meeting people who prefer Episodes 1, 2, & 3.

My 'friend' is 25 and I'm 38 and she's, thankfully, never made an issue of our age difference. But sometimes when we're out I wonder if people know or suspect and what they might be thinking.
