The last thing I thought about 25 years ago was "regularity" and fiber content .

You know your old when the woman pushing high-fiber yogurt to keep one regular is YOUR AGE!!!

Next the denture cleaning products will be promoted by Marie Osmond.

You're also old when golden oldies music advertized in infomercials are what you danced to as a teenager. Come to think of it, this thread is depressing me.

"Talk about getting old depresses you" - yet another symptom.

The pee thing

I never laughed-so-hard-I-peed-my-pants when I was younger; and yes I did laugh hard back then!

you remember when cable TV had an A and B trunk

Over half of those I can relate to and have for years, and I've always joked about being old, but it's only in the last few weeks that I seriously see myself as old, because a twenty-year old referred to me as 'old as f'.

I don't feel weird or bad about getting older though - honestly when you're young you're dimwitted, and most younger folks strike me as being silly as fuck, so I don't really feel any sense of loss about it.

That for me was HBO. Just a white thing sitting atop the TV with a long black switch. Turn to channel 3 and flick that switch.

you hear about a woman with two vaginas

and think how much work that would be...

You realize the glint of silver flashing at you from the mirror isn't glitter from something you brushed up against ...

... but a new grey hair.

And in doctors' and dentists' offices on the mix-light stations:

"A mix of the 80s, 90s and today...."

When I was a kid, they used to say 60s, 70s and today...

You know your ass is old when...

1. Ladies you say "that"s too much cleavage!"

2. Sit-com characters you watched as a kid are now younger than you.

3. Buying condoms, tampons, pads or pregnancy tests are no longer embarassing.

4. When Mickey D's/ Burger King etc. turn on you! Hell just saying Mickey D's means yo ass is old!

Answer yes to any one of the above and your ass is OLD!

I can answer 'yes' to 2 of these and I just turned 25 the week before last.

I'm not embarrassed to by tampons/pads and I don't think I ever was. Oh and I say Mickey D's....sometimes.

not sure if the following only applies to old folk, but i remember when my grand-dad used to pass gas so loud while napping on the couch that he'd wake his self up.

Michael Jackson is not living among us.

Madonna is over 50

Prince didn't remain a symbol

One day I was at church (not Lakewood, my old Baptist church) and the preacher was preaching about enemies. He said, "How many people in the room think they have no enemies?" About half the hands went up, and the preacher got really mad. He went on and on about how we all had enemies and were too egotistic to know it.

After 30 minutes of that, he asked again, "Who in here has no enemies?" This time, about 10 hands were raised. The preacher got really mad and went on another 30 minutes about hypocrisy and pride and all the things that give you a false prospective on what kind of person you are.

Then he asked one more time, "Who here now thinks they have no enemies?" Only one hand went up - that of 90-year-old Mrs. McGinty.

Our preacher was dumbfounded. "You have NO enemies, Mrs. McGinty? None at all? Would you mind coming up here and telling this congregation how it is that you have no enemies?"

Mrs. McGinty toddered up to the pulpit, took the microphone, and said, "I outlived all the bitches".

Best sermon EVER.

!!!!! I love it!

Great thread, I'm enjoying reading everyone's responses. Some of these probably have already been posted, but to me, you know you're getting old when:

* You go into a room to get or do something, then forget what it was.

* You have to write everything down, because you know your memory is not what it used to be.

* You see a young kid doing something stupid, such as driving way too fast. You think to yourself, "These damn kids!", the way your parents used to when you were little.

* You hear a song that you used to love as a kid or a twenty-something year old, and you get a rush of happiness. But at the same time, you feel sad, because you are no longer the youngster you were when the song first came out.

* If you're a lady, your boobs begin to sag, and your hair down there gets gray.

* You have to get your hair highlighted or colored, because you can't stand having a single gray hair showing anywhere.

* You don't sleep the way you used to when you were younger, and suffer from insomnia. My late grandfather used to say, "I go to bed tired and I wake up tired". Now that I am going through sleep issues myself, I know now what he is talking about.

* Stuff that did not annoy you as a young person now does.

* The music that you heard on the radio growing up sounds a hell of a lot better than what is being played on the radio today.

* You are more sentimental and caring about things that never used to make you that way as a youngster. You find that you tend to cry/get emotional easier than when you were younger.

* You think about retiring, then realize that retirement is waaaayyyy off in the distance. You don't have enough money in your retirement account to even think about quitting your job.

* You get aches and pains in your body that you never had before.

* Every day is a diet, because you know that every unhealthy thing you eat is going to make you fat.

I'm turning 50 this year, so yes, I do feel old at times. Somebody pass me the Geritol, walking cane, and bifocals. :cane:

You know you're getting old when you receive a letter in the mail saying you may be eligible for Senior Benefits!!!!! I got one this past weekend.

yeah, well, there is that

When many of the people your age have dentures or partials.

When the busdriver automatically lowers the bus to let u on.

When the word "cougar" could be used to describe a woman your age.

You remember when Rap,Punk, Goth and Hip Hop music did not even exist.
