You know you are too old when ...

I have "my chair" and have recently adopted an "old man's whacking stick". So I don't have to get up from my favorite chair to get anyone's attention.

Hey, quit derailing the derail. We were talking about noisy behavior in traffic when there's cell phones around.

Cell phones are alright. I look at TB on my phone, do a lot of impromptu on the spot research on my phone, i write on it, take notes on it, use its camera often for quick pics of my baby boy before the moment is gone, i run music practice apps on it, use it as a media center remote, and lots lots more. These things are tools, and as such, they are mostly limited by the imagination of the user. Sure, they can be distracting if you're into Facebook and Twitter and Instagram and Pinterest and the like, but if you aren't into that stuff (I'm not), then they're really quite handy.

Get off my lawn.

You know you're too old when you can't understand why cannabis has oddball names like "Rainbow diesel purple lemon black widow shark attack" and not the normal discriptive names of their origins like "Acapulco Gold", "Thai Sticks" or "Columbian Red"

^^ Maybe I'm not old enough but we just used to call it "pot".

 

[Immigrant]

^^ I currently have a strain growing called Fruity Pebbles.


One of these days, the cell providers will flip the 2G switch to "off" and the threads that will pop up here will be high-larious.

I'm younger than many here--and older than many--but every time I go to the grocery store I wonder if they are just hiring younger cashiers-or if I'm getting older--or both.

Yup, some things are better, some are worse. Are we headed for an Asmovian society where people are terrified of physical contact and only communicate via electronics? Uh-oh, am I too old?
What does TWD mean?

Got your reference to "The Naked Sun".

S'pose that makes me old, too.

I want a four finger lid.

















For $15.

You're too old when you have an 18 lb. bass head and you're complaining that it's too heavy.

A college-professor friend of mine once told me that he knew he was getting old when he stopped noticing how attractive the students were and started noticing how attractive their moms were.

When the floor seems a lot farther away than it used to.

Also much harder.

...when you start thinking suspenders with cargo pants looks way cool...

 

[capnjim]

.....you see a beautiful young girl and think.....
"mmmmm, I wonder what her mom looks like??"

You need a huge afternoon nap before a gig.
