Signs Youre Starting To Get Old

RandolphEsq

I noticed over Halloween, whenever I heard bangers and fireworks I thought; 'Kids up to no good'.
Right now Im watching some show on RTE 1 (God Forbid), and am actually interested in it.
It seems like just yesterday I was a young man

When you realise that you could be a sugar daddy to the hot 19 year old in the corner of the bar giving you the eye.:D

BTW Another sign of getting old is getting annoyed with the fact that there's no ' in Youre in "Signs Youre Starting To Get Old"

I think you're only getting old when you give up on life. When you've accepted "this is all there is". When you're afraid to do things anymore. You let yourself go, become unsociable (use RTE in its place), and slowly get bitter...

Not wanting to queue for taxis, or not wanting to be in a place with very loud music, or wanting to wear comfy slippers, etc., is just common sense.

Yes but at least it doesn't say "your".

When you realise that the cutie in the office wasn't even born when you started work / were at college. Spooky.

When all your mates want to go home at midnight cos they have to get up for work the next day. Yawn

When people your own age start talking about "young people" as if they were a different species:(

Thrill

When your friends start showing up in the obituary column.

I heard two guys in their late sixties talking about people that they both knew who had died recently. People they had known all their lives.

Now that surely is a bad sign indeed.

old is agreeing with you and looking to see who's fault it is, only to realise that I started the thread.
What I want for christmas this year is a dressing gown and a pair of slippers so I can sit around the house all day
I just called Czech Republic Czechoslovakia

Thrill

You clean your teeth in a glass.

Someone tries to help you across the road.

When you think ****e movies like Borat are a load of rubbish. ..Doh

you're still young if you find CSG amusing/hot/delete as appropriate

When you begin to realise you're probably not going to be a premiership footballer after all... Most of the players on the team I support are younger than me. I suppose I should let it go!

I'm only 22, but something that made me feel old the other day was realising that my first year poster monkeys in a college society I'm involved with are all around 5 years younger than me... Also the thought that there'll be people in college next year born in 1990.

Whenever you are staring at some girl and your friend goes "She only 19" and you go "so?" and he looks disgusted.

im boll*xed so, ive started to buy boxes of black magic and love it, never ate it before. another reason when you know your getting old is when you ring your little brother and scream at him to stop sending messages in text talk, speak normal ffs

I really start to feel old when I tell my kids that when I was their age we had ...

No mobile phones

No cordless telephones

Only one channel (RTE)

No TV remote control (I suppose we didn't really need it)

No home computer

No Playstation etc

No www

No texts, email, instant messaging, Bebo etc

No microwaves

No CD's, mp3's

No Laser cards

No bar codes

No Irish motorways

No Lotto

No Tesco, Lidl, Aldi, PC World, Atlantic Homecare, Dominoes Pizza, etc etc

Also...

You could get slapped in school.

Women had to leave the civil service if they got married.

You were really rich if you went beyond England on holidays.

If you said 'cool' you were a twerp who was trying to sound American.

If your Mum said 'Shift yourself' you didn't find it funny.

If someone said 'You're sad' it meant you were crying.

An Air Hostess was a really glamorous job.

To be a millionaire was beyond comprehension.

I’m 27 but feel way beyond my years when both my kids are in bed asleep at 8 and alls I want to do is plonk my arse down on the chair and watch some telly trying my best to stay awake. I feel old because my energy levels are dwindling as each year goes by. Complaining about the carry on of the teenagers. Looking forward to sitting in on a Saturday Night and taking it easy……

The 40 + people are reading this about us 20 somethings and rolling their eyes.....

...or when you think you should post to a forum asking the question to which you suspect you already know the answer

...old is a state of mind people....it's the body that lets you down

However if someone ever said I look my age... I might cry

When your in a nightclub and Prodigy "Out of Space" comes on, all your fat sweaty mates try to dance for thirty seconds, then lean against the wall shagged out.

That song is 14 years old!

When you are delighted to hear the doctor saying "you're in good condition for your age".
