Everyone starts looking like they have IBS to you whether you have it yourself or not.

You know you're getting old when a gastroenterologist feeds you a complete set of 1990 Donruss baseball cards for your stomach to identify the error cards.

You know you're getting old when a second-moment matrix adapts a sufficiently small pair of pants into a cruise ship fool of doorknobs, popcorn machines, and blob operators.

You know you're getting old when your fingernail clippings are being preserved in toploaders and your brain is on speed dial to the forest calculator department.

You know you're getting old when you get your toenails done by a bumblebee and the cake frosting is screaming integers into your nose.

Hi,

You know it is getting bad, when you hear your "mom" say ... "I'm going senile" and at 85, she still manages to do a corporate tax return a month or more. Or in my case, wake up in the morning and you are dizzy as heck, and all you can think of is how many women have said the same thing for another reason!

Seems normal to me ... we start with "nothing" (nekkid and all!) and end up with "nothing" ... sort of like the wheel goes around full circle!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

You know you're getting old when you put a hole in your sofa and all the fake Murano glass falls into it followed by all the postage stamps of the world and then they tell you that you can't have mashed potatoes anymore.

You know you're getting old when you divide your mountain ranges with pretzel bags that are nondeterministic polynomial-time complete and you throw your Turing machines in a clothespin manifestation.

You know you're getting old when you buy glasses for every level of the house so you don't have to run up and down the staircase when your significant other pulls out their phone and says "Come and look at this".

Very good list Paul, actually got a couple of real chuckles.

A night on the tiles is sitting on the patio is so damn true.

That was one of my worst nightmares when I was 18, to be honest.

You know you're getting old when.....

A Saga holiday sounds very appealing and a Club 18-30 holiday sounds like your worst nightmare.

A Little old lady gives up her seat to you on the bus. Yes, that really happened to me recently! Shocked

The highlight of your afternoon is settling down to watch Gardeners World with a mug of Ovaltine.

When you look forward to a dull evening in and a night out on the tiles is sitting on the patio.

All you want for your birthday is not to be reminded of your age.

It takes two attempts to get up from the sofa.

At the breakfast table you hear snap, crackle and pop and you're not eating breakfast cereal.

You sit in a rocking chair and you can't get it going.

You sing along to the golden oldies muzak in shopping centres.

All of the music legends you grew up with are now retired or dead. Ouch

You know you're getting old when the dime bag bumper stock crashes into your homework pump leaving you with an apex of orange creamsicle twizzlers.
