You think you should really start eating more salads.

Pisses you off you can't smoke on planes anymore.

Stopped buying music when cd's replaces lp's.

Recall when cable TV meant having 10 channels.

Korea was the place with hills where M*A*S*H was set.

Dont know what a MILF is.

You know you're too old when...




... you look down and see a ring on your finger.

I've done this since I was 20.

Don't banks still close on Wednesday afternoons?

You know you are getting old when you say the same things to your kids your parents said to you, that you swore you would never say.

You remember this with fond memories as now you wake up with a hangover after drinking four bottles of Budweiser. Crying or Very sad

Oh, man, there's the trick. Especially when your teenaged kid tells you to eat shit.

Your sports heros' kids are playing pro sports. Or you're on vacation and see Whoopi Goldberg in the Center Square instead of Paul Lynde. (Star World) And talking to Americans who don't understand why "All in the Family" is still the greatest American sitcom of all time.

Don't know what you're talking about here. Is that a good sign?

Along with 'Three's Company'. Which was the 'original show about nothing'.
Kids these days would be rather surprised that a show like All in the Family was allowed to get away with some of it's content on t.v. back in the day... American sitcoms today are garbage.

when you realize you've told the same funny story to someone for a 3rd time and they are indulging you...exactly the same way you did for your Dad!

You start worrying about your credit rating.

You get less excited about a new video game system and more excited about a new garlic press.

All young women look good to you.

You rarely let your gas tank get below 3/4 full.

You really can't figure out what the hell kids are listening today and it all sounds the same.

A part of your body starts hurting and doesn't stop for 7 years.

You and your friends stop planning a social renaissance and start planning retirements.

Getting in bed Friday night at 10 pm sounds like a delicious idea to you.

You start falling asleep in movies.

You anticipate your Saturday trip to Home hardware to pick out shelf paper and then Starbucks in the same way you used to anticipate a Saturday playing paintball.

Staying out til midnight is your idea of "partying hard."

Getting up at 9 am on the weekend is your idea of "sleeping in."
