Damn you're old.

I love reading stories like this. I am only 43 but I do miss the old days.

My grandmother only had a window unit in her house and space heaters. The AC almost never got turned on and the heaters were always turned off when it was bed time. I can remember waking up and the cats water bowl being frozen solid. They just lived different back then.

How about current signs?

Can't sleep past 6.

Workouts suck more than ever.

Laugh lines.

God damn receding hairline.

You stop giving a frick about unimportant things. That's the surest sign of aging (maturing, whatever), and it may be the only truly positive thing about the aging process--along with getting senior discounts on lap dances at the local titty bar.

frick you and your thread


This.

1. As a kid we had rotary phones. Pushbutton phones were the shite when they came out in the early 70's.

2. I had both 8 track and cassette tapes as a kid.

3. I remember black and white TV and remember when we got our first color TV. It was an actual piece of furniture that looked like a credenza.

4. I remember arguing with my boss in the early 80's about whether we needed a fax machine.

5. Nobody here remembers Telex. I do.

6. I went to Auburn when there was no upper deck on either side of the stadium. West upper deck got built when I was a junior I think.

7. Yall totally missed out on Darvo's 3 for 1 starting at 3PM on fridays. So much booze it would melt styrofoam cups.

8. Saniflush. Best ice cream available. People would stand outside in freezing temps to get it. Their sandwiches were actually pretty good too though. Nobody remembers that.

9. I was in school when AU still had a wrestling team and they were great. frick you Title IX.

10. Oh, drinking age was 18 in Georgia, 19 in Alabama. We fricked that up for you younguns. Sorry not sorry. We partied.

Im ashamed to admit this, but my girlfriend (now wife of 33 years), used to make me watch daytime soaps because she was in class. I had to tell her what happened. I got fricking hooked on those damn things!

Most beta thing I ever did.

I am 23, and I feel old in some aspects already.

I think the number one sign of getting old is how quickly time seems to pass.

I remember being a child and Christmas taking forever to arrive. Now, I feel like Christmases are flying by.

I remember parking my truck anywhere along the drag in town and leaving it unlocked with the keys in it and it still being there hours later when you went back for it.


Cruising up and down Main Street trying to pick up girls.

Using pay phones

Pong

The introduction of cable TV

Do young people do this anymore or did social media and cell phones kill that?
