Getting Old

[PyroChamber]

Are there any things you see these days that just make you feel like you're getting older?

 

[PLAS]

yes, when people repeat threads from the week before

 

[AhabTheArab]

yes, when people repeat threads from the week before

or are you so old you are going senile?

 

[PLAS]

or are you so old you are going senile?

perhaps, but I was talking about a thread about the exact same topic that was made last week

 

[tzarinna]

I watched Bob Costas today and you can see how he's aged and it made me sad.

exactly why i posted what i did....

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

when I hear athletes who are my age being referred to as "towards the end of their careers."

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

Hating kids makes me feel old

 

[PLAS]

being young is overrated

 

[November Rain]

i'm about to start my seventh year of university, freshers make me feel old, especially considering the new batch would have been 11 when i first went to uni...

 

[tzarinna]

Hating kids makes me feel old

I must be dead in the ground.

 

[JTIZZLEVILLE]

It makes me feel old when everyone I graduated high school with either has a kid, is married, or both.

you should feel good that you have neither... unless you're over 40

 

[Lord Valumart]

when an 8 year old turns to you and says, and i quote, "who the ****ing hell is indiana jones?"

 

[terry78]

The one consolation is that when you get older, the younger girls will start to gravitate towards you more. Not illegal young, but...young enough.

 

[black_dust]

When i look in the mirror

 

[PLAS]

when an 8 year old turns to you and says, and i quote, "who the ****ing hell is indiana jones?"

I would slap that kid's face, why and who's letting an 8 year old run around saying swear words in public?

 

[The Kid]

swearing's fine. But not knowing who ****ing indiana jones is, while probably being able to name every pokemon is just ****ing sad, it should be a crime.

 

[Immortalfire]

when an 8 year old turns to you and says, and i quote, "who the ****ing hell is indiana jones?"

It is then that I grab a bottle of Palmolive, fill the kid's mouth with it, then blast his nasty mouth with a firehose. No cursing kids on my watch.

 

[PLAS]

swearing's fine. But not knowing who ****ing indiana jones is, while probably being able to name every pokemon is just ****ing sad, it should be a crime.

what about all the millions of people who don't know and really couldn't care less who Indiana Jones is?

remember, if an 8 year old doesn't know who Indiana Jones is, might be mostly because HE MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN BORN WHEN THE MOVIES CAME OUT

it's really not their fault, is it?

i wasn't born when the moives came out...i still know who indy is

 

[SoulManX]

When things I love as kid as now "retro".

But I knew about Grease and Sat.Night Fever when I was 8.

 

[The Kid]

yeah, indy's a popculture icon. you'd have to be one of those snobby anti-popculture types not to have any idea who he is on some level.

As a matter of fact, I wasn't born when indy came out either. I wasn't born for a lot of things I learned about later through general interaction at school and stuff. The kid must be homeschooled or something.

 

[PLAS]

still, the chances of an eight year old of knowing who Indy is, are slimmer
