Hey Pandas, I think I first started to feel old when I began to accumulate doctors, and most of them are younger than me, sometimes by decades. Also, when I'm asked what breed my dog is - he's a Cairn Terrier - I have to explain the whole plot of "The Wizard of Oz."

Besides your own aches and ills, what makes you feel old?

Heard a teenager say “that song is so old. I think it’s from the 1900’s.” So I now say “I’m from the 1900’s” when anyone asks my age. Lol.

How is it that Saturday nights have gotten so much tamer, but Sunday mornings have gotten worse?

When the local classic rock station started calling songs from the 90’s “classic rock,” I nearly lost it. To me, Pink Floyd & Led Zeppelin are examples of classic rock. Bands like Nirvana & Korn are NOT classic rock bands lol!!

Same. Green Day on the classic rock station made me pull over in the car. I was confused... and then hurt.

When my student didn’t know what :-) meant when I typed it back in a comment for his Doc. It’s like hieroglyphics to those that grew up with emojis.

I can read hieroglyphics better than I can read a text message full of cartoon faces and piles of poop! LOL
