When did you realize you were old?
Me: When I would rather stay in on the weekends than going out.
When some smart ass teenager called me "gramps"
my friend was making a quip to a young thing and she turned around and said " fuck off grandad" that put him in his place forever !
@markdevenish lol
When half the worlds rock stars keep dying and I'm thinking 'They were how old?'
@Redcupcoffee Indeed! He actually defines the notion that miracles can't happen. How on earth is he still alive?
@Redcupcoffee read his auto biography . it's amazing . all that time he was pretty well monogamous unlike wyman and jagger !
When my knee started hurting before major thunderstorms. And my Gibson ES-175 keeps getting heavier....
When it took two days to recover from a hangover. ?

When I could no longer have sex twice in quick succession!
When I was admiring the skills of cute little middle schoolers in a marching band parade, then realized they were university students. Ooops.
I remember listening to "Lunchtime with the oldies" on the radio while I was at Ft. Meade, Maryland. I was in my early 20s, and they played a song that I loved in high school. I was pissed about that for days! And that was the first time I realized it was really all downhill from there. My middle daughter freaks out about wrinkles and turning 30! I told her "really? Every wrinkle and grey hair I have has your name on it" I may be old, but I don't care! I'm OK with it. My mom died at 45, she never got to meet her grandchildren or see any of her kids get married or any of that other cool "getting old" stuff. Your age is just a reflection of the number of trips around the sun your have made. Don't let your age define you. I may be 60 and my knees make some odd noises and yes I have a few gray hairs but dammit, I put the time in for it. I earned it! I am happy about it because so many don't get that opportunity. JMHO ( or not so H)
When my friends started making babies on purpose.
when i did the pogo for 2 hours and couldn't walk properly the next week [ last week after orchestral manuvers in the dark]
Old? I still think I am a kid, though my body and some othe prople point out otherwise. I have a 9 year old daughter who is too often mistaken as my grand daughter. I was at the park with her and another parent with her kids and additedly she looks young next to me. But another little kid asked is she could play, being a parent she tried to decline and the kid said "you could ask your dad, pointing at me"
THAT is when I realized I was old.
