You know you're OLD when....

grandpa

You know that you're an old geezer when...

your clothes start to look like something your parents would wear.
you ever say "that gives me gas/acid reflux/heartburn".
you're talking about a playground and the first thing you think of is a twisted ankle
you take calories into consideration when choosing a drink at the bar.
you change hairstyles to lessen the effects of balding/receding hairlines.
you slow down your car not because of the fear of cops, but of higher insurance premiums.

What else can you add to this list?

When you know its cold/rainy because of the pain in your knee

When you complain about someone else playing music too loudly

When a style you wore in highschool comes back into fashion

When you can say... "I remember when..."

When you speak of calling someone only involved dialing 7 numbers, rode in a car with no seatbelts, and wore a Dr. Pepper t-shirt.

your knees pop when you climb or descend stairs

you make a wheezy sound when you sit down or get up from the sofa

you feel like rolling your window down and yelling at a crowd of yougnsters 'hey! pull up those damn saggy pants! and get a haircut while you're at it!'

...you complain about "kids today", aka the 20-something interns at your job who have a terrible work ethic and can't think analytically (or use Google) to figure out how to do things.

...most contemporary music sounds like noise. lol

...you get a hangover from 2 drinks.

The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

Never going to happen. I will not wear "Dad" clothes.

The calorie thing I have always done.

At some point in the future I will have to adjust hairstyle to make up for a receding hair line-but not yet!!

When bands you've loved your ENTIRE LIFE (Beastie Boys) get into the rock n' roll hall of fame

On a less happy note, when artists or one kind or another, or members of bands you've been into start dieing at a rapid rate

When your niece and nephew are having conversation with you about the books you read in high school... because they're reading them now confused

I am so in fear of this right now as my nieces friends have started having kids and she's the same age my sister was when she had my niece. I mean really, I don't fear much... but this has got me worried. lol
