Tell Us Something That Happened To You That Made You Feel Very Old.

My wife and I are the same age to within a few months.
Once at the cinema together, I asked for two "senior citizens" tickets.

The young lady cashier smiled and said, "I'll need proof of age."

I smiled and started to feel quite good at this, until she carried on saying, "Not you, her!"
 
Nah, she's up there in the years and a little goofy.

The high school girls that work there are intrigued by me, until they find out how old I am. Then they're mortified.

That makes me feel old.

Lie about your age.

Oh wait, they're only in high school. Never mind. You'll end up in the slammer! :dunno: :rflmao:

Was at the barbers today and he said, "Hey Bucky, there's more hair growing from your nose, ears and eyebrows than what's growing on your head."
I said, "You should see my back".
Anyone know of a good local barber......

A young fella came into the store needing a fuse, but he did not know how to read it. I put it under a light and went and grabbed the new fuse. He asked how I knew how I did that. I said that I have been reading them for 50 years.
 
I was 17 and my Dad asked me to come over and read a phone number from the yellow pages because he couldn't make it out. I remember he was in his 50's and I was saying to myself wtf you cant see that.
I'm in my mid sixties now and when I go shopping because of vanity issues I dont take my glasses and I go home with fat free half and half, German Patato salad instead of deviled egg because some of the writing I cant make out. I'm getting old or my eyes are.

In my younger days I could carry many bags of groceries from the car making one trip. Now, I take the perishables in first, rest & then finish up whenever my knees say its okay! :)

Ps: This usually requires several more trips! :D

Strangers stop to put the 55 lb bag of dog food in the car for me. Yes it's gotten heavier, and my Marantz 8 amp weighs ca 55 lbs.
 
Why is it that they've started to print instructions and safety warnings on...everything... using such a small typeface, you can't read it?


I mean even smaller than this.
