Wasn't it Roger who sang it? Anyway, I don't mean "age" old, I mean "outlook and approach to life" old. I have (and have had) friends and acquaintances in their 70's to late 80's who hqve maintained a fun and youthful aproach to life. I want to be like them.

Buying Viagra online VS. "just give me a damn Viagra" to doctor (not caring what the nurses think.)

edit- not caring what the medical records read.


clarification-
give=prescribe, not "give, on the spot"

Big stacks of cheaters everywhere and closed captioning on the tv a realistic proposition.

When you use phrases like
"I remember when..."
"Back in the my day..."
"You kids..."

or, the phrase "get off my lawn" seems to be perfectly reasonable!

Another tip off is music:
-Wait, Soundgarden is on the oldies station!?

or, you remember listening to new records from all the folks on the front of this magazine


or you remember candy like this

You know you're old when you go to the store to pick up some one point fives and they are reading glasses.

My wife made this shirt for me some (10) years ago. I always wonder why.

57- I'll let you all know when I get there. You know you are not old when;

You don't listen to talk radio,

You like the oldies but still listen to new music and istalled a bluetooth speaker in the Edsel Convertible because the AM radio only gets oldies and you want to listen to Bruno Mars.

You see a thread on SSA & COLA and not only don't know what it is but feel no need to check it out.

You sleep through the night and laugh when others say they get up to pee.

you don't take any meds.

You finish in the top fifty percent in triathlons and Spartans competeing against those 19-57. When you beat those older then 57 they don't count they're old.

You take your cheaters off when shooting a lever action with iron sights so you get a better sight picture.

Some dude says hey punk get off my lawn.
