You know you are getting old when...

[Moviefan2k4]

You know you're getting old when...

• You actually remember TV going off every night with "The Star-Spangled Banner".
• You can recite most of "Back to the Future" from memory.
• You first remember Jennifer Love Hewitt from her days on "Kids, Incorporated", rather than films or "Party of Five".
• You remember Neve Campbell more from the TV film "The Canterville Ghost" than from "Scream".
• Your weeknight dinner routine included "Star Trek: The Next Generation", during its original run.
• You watched "Get Smart" and "Flipper" reruns on Nick @ Nite.
• Your first experience with pop music was hearing "Billie Jean" on a casette tape.

[AndThePickles]

Is there anything else us young'uns should look out for?

Aw It wasn't THAT long ago...was it?

 

[xGEMSKIx]

1996? thats not that long ago its just over 10 years!! its not quite classic yet!

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

You're old when you sit around with your surviving friends talking about who's died lately.

Which I've done, but I'm not old. I mean not due to accidents and the like.


You know what I mean.

 

[xGEMSKIx]

sad to hear that.
i reckon you are only old when your heart and mind feel old.

You know you are getting old when someone calls you a uncle.

 

[POWdER-man]

You know you are getting old when someone calls you a uncle.

meh...I was an uncle when I was only 10 years old.....there are 18 years difference between me and my oldest sister (half)....

 

[redmarvel]

it was worse when i heard transformers recently described as 'retro'.

You know you're getting old when the music you liked in highschool starts appearing on Retro and Classic albums.

 

[redmarvel]

You know you are getting old when someone calls you a uncle.

I was an Aunt when I was 4 and a Great Aunt when I was 24.

 

[Vilya]

meh...I was an uncle when I was only 10 years old.....there are 18 years difference between me and my oldest sister (half)....

^ From people unrelated ..... i also discovered the longer i keep my hair the older i tend to look.

 

[POWdER-man]

............when people stop asking you your age....

I stopped being asked (regularly) for ID when I was 17.....I haven't been asked since I was 19.....

 

[redmarvel]

You know you're getting old when...

You watch a popular television show and think to yourself, "they're all so young".

 

[Kelly]

I stopped being asked (regularly) for ID when I was 17.....I haven't been asked since I was 19.....

You're gonna age horribly, dude.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

You know you're old if you're born before 1985.

 

[PLAS]

You know you're old if you're born before 1985.

and when were you born?

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

you get Ed McMahon jokes.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

and when were you born?

Obviously 1985.

 

[PLAS]

Obviously 1985.

I'd understand being 22 years old

but being old at 22, that's just ridiculous

another sign that you're getting old:

you rather wallow in old memories instead of creating new ones

 

[Shuley]

You know you're old if you're born before 1985.

I was born in 1976...i'm old.

 

[Omega214]

My dad just said "you know when you're old when wizards came back from the dead sporting a new look and house elves were Schizophrenic material b*stards"

 

[PemLam]

I was born in 1976...i'm old.

1970!

You know you're old when your kids ask if you rode horses to school when you were a kid...and if they had music when you were young.

 

[WorthyStevens]

You know you're staying young when you're near 21 and still get carded and asked for ID.

 

[Dangerous]

Don worry about it everything on MTV is pure *****.
