my Spirit Sister just blurted out
"When cut, copy and paste" required scissors and glue. |
When your knees are louder than the kid next door's boombox

.........when you read through a thread, laugh a little, agree with most, then leave the thread. Then read the title of the same thread on the front page and think, "that sounds good" and go back to it. :blink:
Is that old or just Knucklehead? |
When it takes longer to leave the house than it does to shower, dress, eat breakfast ... cause you can't find your keys, your wallet, the dog leash, the ... :seconddoh:

when youngsters amuse you by recounting their life lessons...
when the definition of youngster grows looser each year... just like your skin... ETA: hoping theres at least a coupla folks who think youngster still when looking toward me... |

When you can remember when cassette tapes came out but didn't get rid of your 8-tracks in case the whole cassette thing didn't catch on.
|
When you sing an old song at kareoke and wait for the "beep" because there was a "beep" on 8- track! :americanIdol:
my wife has no idea to what I mean by 8-track... :blink: |
Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter. Mark Twain I just like this quote.. |
you know you're getting older when
...when u can only buy ur favorite candy at Cracker Barrel ...when you talk about the brat pack and all u get are blank stares ...when your kids asks you how much allowance you got and you said $5,then they ask why even bother? ...when the snap,crackle,pop u hear ISNT coming from ur bowl of cereal ...when talking to your children) it starts out with "when i was a kid" ...when ur at a restaurant they offer u the senior discount menu ...people ask for ur aarp card for discounts ...when u text ur son in the other room to come and bring u the remote that is on the coffee table less than 2 feet away...or put ur dirty glass in the sink OR turn off the light ...when a kiss and a pat is all it takes to satisfy you. ...and last but not least you know you're getting old when you have to read then reread your post to make sure you didnt say something twice |
When you are down on the floor to brush the dog and take the time to look around to see if there is anything else that needs doing before you yell for help up! :cracked:
|
When you chant to your self before getting up because you know snap crackle pop of the joints comes right after.

finally knowing
books, always conversations, seem more so.
gazing into eyes full of life, a gift. a child, gift. an elderly person, a Soul full of history. my silver hair, a welcome recognition of my love. Greco |
when youre rocking your new haircut... until you have to put on a scarf cuz your neck is cold...
|
When, y'know, errrrm, your wotsit, your conversation is littered with pauses whilst you errrrm, oh bugger, whilst you search for words.

When you can remember getting the game "Operation" for Christmas.
When at least one of your proms was in the theme of "Disco" When you watch "That 70s Show" and say stuff like...."Omg i had that hairstyle or OMG wore that shirt or skirt". If you can remember watching "The 10,000 Dollar Pyramid". When you were one of the first to see "Star Wars"....the FIRST one. If you can remember when the "Exercist" came out and all the drama about people getting sick during the movie. If you can remember when Evil Knievel jumped Snake River Canyon. When man landing on the moon happened in your lifetime. |
~ when you remember shopping at Woolworth's, Zayre's, and Gladdings ~ when you remember using a push mower to cut the lawn - gawd I loved that thing! ~ when you remember reel to reel home movies ~ when you stuck baseball cards to the spokes of your bike with clothespins to simulate a motor sound ~ when you MADE skateboards out of detachable skates and a piece of wood ~ when chokers were a fashion statement not a lifestyle indicator |
when... upon remembering all the times that you thought that you couldnt wait to be old you understand what a dumbass you were then...
|
You have no idea what your natural hair color is
You remember people smoking in restaurants You put clipped a card with a clothespin onto your bike to hear the spokes hit it. |

The older I grow The more I recall How little I knew when I knew it all. |

You know you're getting older when...
...no one has to remind you that paying bills comes before luxuries ...that retirement savings and college funds for the kids are near the top of the list ...you buy Benefiber in the jumbo size :cheesy: ...you own, and use, a pillbox with a compartment for each day of the week |
When you...

You Know when u r geting older when:
You swear you can hear your knees squeek. Remember the show Howdy Doody. Try to explane the bay of pigs thing with Cuba to someone who never herd of it. remember watching old LonChainy movies. When U hear a dowop song on the radio and get excited. |
it takes longer to rest than it did to get tired
when all you want for your birthday is not to be reminded of your age when your address book has mostly names that start with Dr. you give up all your bad habits and you still don't feel good. |
