    When my nephew asks me if there were cars when I was young. I'm just 30.

    When I open my mouth to utter disapproval of something, and I hear my mothers voice come out.

    When I buy three months worth of washing detergent, because it was on special.

    To be fair she has to be fairly old by now. The original Baywatch was a long time ago!

    This was a few years ago when it was pointed out to me.
    Remember thinking not that I was getting old but "Wow. I am old".

    I discovered recently that I'm two months too old to join the Guards. I wouldn't want to join them, but it's disconcerting nonetheless.

    I recently saw a warning label on one of those large office water bottles that state that they're only to be lifted by people between 18 & 55, so I'm now too old to lift a water bottle. :rolleyes:
