It Really Hit Me That I Was Getting Old When...

[Rockvillejoe]

I can't read medicine or other small bottles without a magnifying glass. And even with that, it's so damn hard to find the actual directions or dosages because of all of the damn warnings and instructions on what NOT to use the product for.:furious:

thats spot on. for me its when i went from shooting a load in 20 seconds to waiting shooting a load in 20 minutes.

and getting up at 3 am to evacuate my bladder. every fucking night. which wakes me up. and makes it hard to go back asleep. so i write shit on this website.

[dickydean]

I've had a pin in my hip for the last 40+ years with no problems until the last six months or so. I ask the doctor if he could give me something for it. He gave me a handicap parking tag! I can't tell you how old that made me feel.

In my case it is a rocking chair. I am southern and still walk.

Also, I only park in those spots when I really need it. I hate people who arbitrarily park in handicap spots but seemingly not need to. Some people just need to walk.

I was in Subway today. I ordered my sandwich and these two young guys came in. One commented on the song playing on the radio. It was "Who can it be now" by Men at Work.

They commented about how old the song was and guessed it was from 1987. I told them,
"No. It was 1981."

"Don't tell me who it is!"

"Billy Idol?"
"Wham?"
"Who's the guy who got caught in the bathroom with the guys?"
"The Who?" (as much as that hurt me, I will give them credit for being on the right track.)

I told them and they had no idea what I was talking about.

Part of me was glad because they weren't a great band, but I felt SO FUCKING OLD!!!

Remember in rest rooms when by the sink, to get the soap you would push up on a lever on a container, and the soap came out in your hand in a pile of powder with a texture similar to laundry detergent? Now that's old school.

When I was in lovely New York last week, I stopped into a high-end boutique and perused the offerings for SP10, and I kept seeing Dhoti pants, also known as Hammer Pants and Genie Pants that were worn with neither shame nor irony in the mid-1980s. I said to spouse, I can't believe I'm living through this twice.

Actually, for me it was when Stone Temple Pilots began playing on Q 104.3. I just sat there thinking "That's now considered classic rock?"

I am getting old...I went with my brother and his friend deer hunting yesterday up in Schoharie county yesterday. Before I left the nthouse, I popped a motrin so my knee wouldn't act up...I wouldn't have had to do that a few years ago!!!

[fezident]

It really hit me that I was old yesterday when:
I talked to a sexy chick at a bar.... beautiful face... great vibe.... long shiny hair... rock hard body... tan... hip trendy clothes... and overall really attractive.

She is a grandmother.
She's 43. Her daughter just gave birth to a her first child.

It hit me, "I'm 38. I'm old".

Last night, a girl that I work with said to me "I don't really like the new SNL cast members. I liked the VINTAGE cast members, ya know, like Will Ferrell and Tina Fey."



It kinda reminded me of that old Billy Crystal joke from back in the 80ies
"Kids make ya feel old. Like, the other day my 12 year old daughter came up to me and asked 'Daddy, is it true that Paul McCartney was in a band BEFORE Wings?'"

One of the camping trips this past summer was with a guy I've known for 20 or so years and his family. It hit me like a ton of bricks that I'm getting old when I realized that his son (I'm his godfather) is 15 and I vividly remember being at the hospital for his birth.

There's also the whole thing about how I talked on the phone with my oldest kid today... When he told me more stories about how scared he is of the idiotic Iraqi soldiers he's training... but he finally got word that he will get a 14 day leave... to be there for the birth of HIS kid.

That can kind of make a person feel old.

I'm cool with it, though. I'm happy I'm alive to be bitching about how old I am.:smoke:

Turning 30 I thought I would have this moment but not yet, I will update when it does hit me:laugh:
I'm 32, but when I was 18 I felt old when 2 girls, I graduated with were in Playboy. I didn't even notice them while I was in school.

I thought, "Class of 95? Here?"

When I was 19, a girl I took a Lit class with was in a Penthouse College Girls issue. I felt old then, too.

Then Britney Murphy, who is two months younger than I... her death. I felt old then.

[midwestjeff]

Handsome devil..

mmm..hhmmm.


I just got a call that started like this:

"Hey, wanna hang out and smoke some weed?"

Instead of saying, "Yeah. Come on over.", I had to put on my best stern (not hoo hoo) adult voice to question the caller. Next I had to tell him to stay away from my chick's son, and then try to play the "cool" guy and tell him that I wasn't telling his parents this time but that he'd better be careful because drugs are not a road he wants to go down at his age. Follow that with an interrogation of her son and a quick assessment of his involvement with this kid (he only has a couple friends that he hangs out with outside of school so this one was probably just a school friend), and then let him know that he'd have to go through the same talk with his Mom when she gets home.

The irony, or maybe hypocrisy is a better word, behind it all is that
I had just smoked 10 minutes before the phone rang. :smoke:

The final question to jeopardy the other night was "who is pele?" we paused it before the show the question and I told my wife and her sister it was easy "his soccer jersey sold for record at auction in 1972." they had no clue. I said don't over think it, just name one soccer player you know (they're not soccer fans) and its probably the right one. They could both only think of David backgammon and Mia Hamm. They NEVER HEARD of pele. I told them it was like the answer being babe Ruth, them only having heard of Jeter and not even knowing the name Ruth. They were properly shamed after that.

I'm sure the fact that I'm even thinking about this, probably answers the question... but...

How old is too old to wear sports jerseys in public?

I've worn them my whole life, and have a pretty decent collection, but I'm wondering if it just looks silly now.

I've already pretty much stopped buying and wearing ones that represent players that are younger than I am (which is pretty much every active player except maybe Jamie Moyer).

Can I still wear throwbacks, or generic baseball jerseys with no names?

My old Walter Payton, Dick Butkus or Bo Jackson stuff?

Is it time to get rid of it all?

Superbowl party is just over a week away. For the last Giants/Pats superbowl party, I wore a #10 Manning jersey amid a sea of Pats gear. Can I pull it off one more time? Or am I stuck shopping for a NYG "polo"?

And if I can get away with wearing a jersey... are the Giants wearing blue or white this time?

[JerseyRich]

It looks silly at any age.

So go ahead and keep wearing them.

[weekapaugjz]

I think what I was trying to say is that I never look at a dude in a sports jersey and think..."Wow...he's a really good fan."

Bullshit! You are supposed to wear a tie and top hat when going out upon the town

Ha!

Until the bosses cracked down on me, I was wearing jerseys to work. If I'm forced to work on the weekend or holidays, I'll still wear one just out of spite, but I've stopped from M - F.

It's kinda depressing thinking I might be getting too old to pull this off, but my chick would LOVE the additional closet space.

And if I sold them off by the piece on eBay, we'd could probably get at least a grand or more that we (she?) could spend on something else.

I would HAVE to keep a couple around for her, though.

If she's feeling "frisky", she knows that all she has to do is put her hair in pigtails and throw on a jersey and it's ON.

No liscense ever applied for... but for all practical purposes, yes.

I'm 43, she's 28, and yes, I was wearing them regularly when we met, so she's cool with it, and has a few of her own now.

Definitely not worried about impressing women, and really don't care what the hayseeds around here think. There aren't many "locals" that own/wear any sort of jerseys, and I'm pretty sure it just further alienates me from them, which is fine.

I was just throwing it out there because I know it's been mentioned on the show before, and was curious if there was an age that it just looks over the top silly.

Tough one. I like that you've strayed away from wearing players that are younger than you. I'm 33 and if i were an athlete i'd be on the downside of my career. At some point in my late 20's (when the whole mitchell & ness throwback craze kicked up) i thought it was kind of silly to wear another man's jersey and made a mint selling them off on Ebay. The only one i kept was my Pat Tillman Cardinals jersey.

The only acceptable jerseys for an adult to wear is a hockey jersey TO A GAME. Don't wear it to shop rite, it's bizarre.

And if you MUST wear a jersey with a name, said player must have played when you were a child. So no Eli Manning jersey for you. But maybe a Simms, or LT would be acceptable.

As the Mets are sadly my favorite sports team, i would never get a current players jersey, however an 86 player is perfectly acceptable in my mind.

It sucks throwbacks are so much, but depending on the players association involved, you can go to your teams site, and personalize a current jersey with a former players name/number.

That being said, i've got a few player t-shirts (not exactly jerseys) that im thinking i need to get rid of now. thanks.

The last time I looked around on eBay, it seemed the overall supply of jerseys was WAY down. I just hope the demand is still there.

Appeared as though they'd been cracking down on some of the knock-offs being made in China and Korea (although there were still some obvious fakes).

Yeah, I'm thinking it's time to sell off the majority. Hopefully get a decent price, even though these aren't exactly "New With Tags" anymore.

The East Coast Hockey league team we had ("Mobile Mysticks") moved out years ago, so I guess it's time to let those go too.

I'd go looking for an 80's NYG jersey, but if I'm going to go "cold turkey" on this, I'd probably better not.

Ok, I guess "never" was a wrong choice of words.

He ran a few select races in the 60's, but he wasn't exactly known as a "NASCAR" driver, or a regular on the NASCAR circuit.

And even then, he was still running Indy-cars (won Indy-car driving championships in '65 and '66)

When most people remember Mario, it's from Indy car and Formula One.

The statement was "Mario Andretti hasn't raced in NASCAR since 1994".

The last NASCAR race he ran was in 1969.

I was afraid of that. I've got an old "SHOCKEY #80" jersey in white, but unless it's a retired player, I don't usually wear fomer, active players that are now on other teams.

There's a pretty good stack in the back of the closet that are like that (including 3 or 4 just from Takeo Spikes alone, from the Bengals, Bills, Eagles and 49ers... that guy can't find a damn home anywhere).

I figured I'd probably have to wait until those guys retire for a few years to maybe find a buyer that might consider it a "throwback", and even then, they're probably not worth much.

The last time Carter and Rob Cross were on the show pitching "new music", there wasn't anything besides the Uganda guy who sounded like Van Morrison, that I thought I'd ever want to hear again.

Some of the lyrics in that "212" song were interesting, but the "music" was painful.

So true - I went to play racket ball and after a few minutes, my old knee injury and achilles tendon injury stopped me in my tracks. if I was about 75 lbs lighter I think I could do it without pain but getting older sets you back too.

When i was younger I could run through walls without any troubles - and did too, just look at my criminal record.
