you know you're getting old when.......

[fredsredhat]

Having a haircut and they ask if you want your eyebrows doing.

[Ste]

So you asked for Gary Glitter eyebrows?

[Sun Wukong]

Haha, the growth in nose hair makes me more sad

My favourite two ways I've heard to know you're old are;

How long it takes you to get out of a bean bag

Your initial reaction to seeing snow; excitement, or dread the trip to work.

you know you're getting old when.......


While presenting a music radio show, in conversation with my young lady news reader.......

Me: That was X&Y with Z

Newsy: I remember that, it was one of Dad''s favourites

Me: I had it on 12" single

Newsy: what's a 12" single?

Me: it's called a record, you play it on a turntable

Newsy: so how does that work?

Nose hair? Nah, that's nothing.

Ear hair means you're old.

[monkeybiker]

When you go up stairs to get something but by the time you got up there you forgot what you went for.

[yen_powell]

When you can't get out of a bean bag without putting your hands AND knees on the floor.

The first time you walk the long way round a low fence rather than climbing over it.

Suddenly realising you make an 'ahhhh' noise when you sit down after standing for longer than 10 minutes.

This happened to me.

When you go to an antic auction. Some of the tool that are on sale you have in your shed, and they still work. Plus you brought them from new.

Saw a line in a sitcom that struck a chord.

Man holding a vinyl LP.

Kid: What’s that?

Man: It’s a record. It’s what we had before CDs.

Kid: What’s a CD?
