    Been feeling that with a few things recently.. Playing games? Fine. Managing gaming communities? Who are these <snip>.

    Bit of a pity to lose things you were once into. Still have a few offline hobbies in the bank so not too worried.

    Going on the beer, two nights in a row. Its like a manifesto to kill yourself.

    Drinking more than 5 bottles of beer on a night out. Nightmare the following day.

    I'm too old for this getting old ****.

    I was about 2. Defecating on myself, as was my custom, when suddenly it dawned on me that it was time to heed my parents' advice and make use of the plastic potty they'd provided to me.

    I was literally "too old for this shít".

    Listening to ****.....way too old for that

    Nightclubs. Paying through the snot for the privilege of getting in.
    Then paying through the snot to hang a jacket.
    Then paying through the snot for shyte drinks.
    Shyte music.
    Shyte night.
    And never getting the shift!

    Staff parties/work nights out.

    I just want to go home and sit in my jammies, not listen to a bunch of gee-eyed co-workers talk ****e.

    Whip rounds in work for little Johnnys sponsered trip to France.

    The saying "it's for a good cause"

    The saying "going forward"

    Saying "just saying"

    Sayings.

    Don't really look at situations I no longer want to be about as "I'm getting too old for this $hit"
    I prefer use this line in those type situations

    probably the one thing that redeems me feeling like I'm old is a 2 dayer weekend..rare event now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,594 ✭✭✭DoozerT6


    Looking at people that you used to babysit, forging good careers and undoubtedly earning more than I do now, getting married, starting their own families - basically passing ahead of me in life.

    Urgh, I spend 40 hours a week with these people. Now I have to spend my free time too?

    Seriously though, why didn't they mention this? They never said it would be this bad.

    The way things are today I'm happy to say I'm too old for this ****

    Now if it was 1967 at the age I am now it would be a very different story

    Flossing. Dabbing. Planking. All that crap.

    Chasing after an 18 month old daughter at 42.
    For the love of Jesus young people, heed my advice. Have your kids when you are in your 20s. That way you will have more energy for them and at least by the time they are reared you won't be the wrong side of 55 hoping you make it to retirement!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,566 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    You're as old as your hair line

    I got my first Apple device recently.

    It's only got a single core processor but I'm well impressed.
