I think that it's when you start to be independent and appreciate the finer things in life and can identify the fads and fashions that will soon pass.

And speaking of fashions, perhaps it's also the ability to say "I used to wear the same style when I was young".

I think just remembering £.s.d. (the money, not the dope!) qualifies anyone as an O or an O.

When some kind person on the bus offers me a seat but it will not happen for a long time to come ...it better not . A bitter-sweet experience first time?
