    a child today would have absolutely no idea what this is

    I'm kind of relieved I don't know what it is and I'm in my late 30s.

    Subject of Gerry Ryan came up in work recently. Two of the newer staff in their early 20s had never heard of him.

    Forrest Gump, Pulp Fiction and The Shawshank Redemption came out a quarter of a century ago.

    Last Saturday after walking around our local town I didn't fall asleep on the couch but made a conscious decision to have a "nap".

    A young lad in work asked me who I thought the best Premier league keeper ever, I said even as a Liverpool fan i'd have to say Schmeichel

    He replied " ah he's ok but he's getting on at 32 " took me a minute to realise he was talking about Peter's son Kasper.,

    How in the F*CK is Peters Schmeichel's son coming up to retirement age ,

    Nightclubs/late night bars and I’m only in my thirties. You know there’s no turning back when you walk out saying the music is too loud :)

    That's one of the good things about getting older. You can ditch niteclubs.

    I always hated them, even as a teen and in my early 20s.

    Always preferred a late bar.

    The nickname for the commanding officer in a US Army unit is "The Old Man".

    When I was a Troop commander, I was interviewing troops joining my unit who were born in the 90s. At that point, it hit me. "I really am the Old Man".

    Now, of course, troopers are joining who are well in the 2000s.

    The kids that were born when 9/11 happened will be 18 this year and a lot will have just done their leaving cert.
    Part of me feels they should still be in primary school

    Was at a George Ezra concert the other night (don't judge me), and before the gig there was an ad for a FooFighters' gig..

    Overheard:

    "What's the Foo Fighter?"
    "Don't know. Sounds like a wrestler"

    It didn't help that the average age of the concert goer was about 16. I have never felt so tall in my life.

    What sort of childhood did you have?
    I'm in my early 30's and everyone used these as kids.

    Developed into a minor in bomb making as a teen with these.

    Slice them down the middle, wrap tightly in tape. Makes a nice bang.

    I was chatting to a lad in his early 20s about football recently (I'm 39), specifically about Zidane returning to Madrid.

    Actually had to dig out the phone to show him this goal, he'd never seen it - only knew Zidane as manager.

    She's 6. She can't understand that there was no internet when I was younger, but at least I had YouTube and NetFlix, didn't have the heart to tell her that I was older than both combined
