You know you're old, when______________!

[Trip]

I was reading the headlines on AOl, and they mentioned it was almost 50 years ago, that Liz Taylor starred in Cleopatra ! I don't know why, but I was just thunderstruck by this..Could it really be 50 years!!!! Yes it could

I was a young teen when I went with my girlfriend and her parents on a road trip to Montreal, and Cleopatra was playing, and we went to see it. It does have a vivid memory in my brain, but that "fifty" years" threw me for a loop

What makes you feel old, anything or nothing..fill in your blank_________.

I know I'm old every morning when I wake up. But it's still better than the alternative :

I don't know about being old all I know is that I am above ground.

The time that I served in Vietnam often comes to mind. When I think about how long ago that was it makes me feel old.

When the year of birth of my patients is the year I started in the business!

I had a Chief in the Navy who said "you know yer gettin old when the year of birth of the new recruits is the year you signed up.!"

I am still amazed by e-mail. Add to that all of the technological stuff, such as Smart Phones . . .

I just asked my DH and he said what makes him feel old is when somebody holds open the door for him, which they did today . . . I remind all of you that Keith is 82 and wonderful.

Love your response Ray!
What makes me feel old is when I run into old daycare or nursery school kids I taught and now they are getting married and having their own kids!

My youngest child just had her 25th birthday on Sunday, that makes me feel old...lol

How about when your cruising the radio channels and a good song is playing, that you grew up hearing, so you stop only to find out it is the oldies station!

[Luanne Russo]

I can relate to all of your posts. I had a student once ask me what it was like during the Civil War. He was to young to have been kidding.

You know what makes me feel young? LIFE!!!

.... when your children are on Social Security.

[venice]

when you are 2X the age of your grown child
when a beautiful young woman flirts with you and you think she might be perfect for your grown son, if her were not already happily married
when the primary radio station on your car radio is a 50-60's oldies one and you know the words of every song
when you go on an 50's-60's Maltshop Doo-Wop theme cruise featuring Chubbie Checker and comment that he looks younger then you
when your grandchildren look at your high school yearbook prom picture and start laughing
when you have guest and play a 45 record on your RCA hi-fi
when a man takes his AARP magazine to the bathroom to read instead of Playboy
when you are past on the road by a 2011 Ford Mustang convertable and remember when you went to the Ford dealer to test drive a 1964 1/2 Ford Mustang the day they received the very 1st one

When you realize that your oldest grandchild is turning 20!

[Paul Motter]

When someone you age introduces you to their grandchild, and they are fully grown.

[Queen of Oakville]

I think I am younger than all of you

[venice]

when you are speaking with your children and start off with the phrase.."back in my day"..and they go and google the year to do a fact check on your memory...

Queen..you may be younger then the rest of us in years..but you are the same age in spirit by posting with us ::::

[Queen of Oakville]

I'm not old in spirt, you are all young in spirt!

[carmensmom]

What makes me feel old is shopping for shoes. When I was younger I bought shoes that were cute. Now I don't care what they look like as long as they are comfortable.

[anniegb]

I get older each year but mentally and in spirit I am perennially 4 years old!

As a famous shoe advert says, I act my shoe size!

I have no intention of changing either!
