Re: Signs that you are getting older
I have one single grey hair in my beard, right in the middle of my chin.
It don't bother me going grey, I'm bald as a fucking badger so I'm just grateful that I can grow a decent beard

Badgers have a lot of hair and a lot of it is white. :)

Re: Signs that you are getting older
you know you're old when crouching down to shit and it taking longer than it used to to get it all out, you wind up exercising your quadriceps more than you realized, and the next day you feel very sore in your thighs and you cannot understand what you had done to get that soreness, it is as sore as if you had gone to the gym the previous day and done squats with a bar and heavy weights. @Master

Salty? Lyle you are about fucking 12 years old, so maybe ...just maybe..you might not have anything to add to this particular thread. Yes we know you ride a penny farthing and have a handlebar moustache and wear slippers and vape on your lavender steampunk pipe, but surely not even you would agree with Brocks assertion that a video uploaded by somebody else, watched over 52 000 times and liked by over 500 people was liked by nobody else on earth but good old God Complex Brock, who has experienced everything that everyone else has only 10 fold the fucking mental midget that he is ?. ;D

Re: Signs that you are getting older
My grandaughter was 2 today. Her brothers are 4 and 6 and my step son is 30 next year. God man I am getting old but refuse to do so gracefully. I love embarrassing the kids by still hanging out with the nee'r do wells, crusties, gypos, punks etc Still always right in the mosh pit down the front, but getting harder to lift my Mrs out of the bath nowadays. My old man is more titanium and plastic than flesh and bone and is still telling off all us kids in the same breath as wishing us a happy Hannukah. Think that right there is a blue print on how to be a proper cantankerous old bastard with a big grin on your face.

I'm just curious when you say telling all of you off are you saying he has legitimate complaints or are you saying that he is just imagining stuff and blowing off steam? I would not want to think that someone who has reached his wise old age would be overly critical or verbally abusive to you or your family

Re: Signs that you are getting older
When your children beat you at running. :(
Went to park for a run with the children today and did a sprint at the end the length of a football pitch. Little brats beat me. I told them i was holding back as I did not want to embarrass them.

;D Just teaching them life is better enjoyed at a steady jog than in a frantic sprint is all. They'll get that someday when they are huffing and puffing like humbled geezers :-X.

Re: Signs that you are getting older
Here's one sure sign: You find yourself more and more amused at those who boast about getting drunk every day, like some sort of misguided badge of honor.

Re: Signs that you are getting older
Lets just say Christmas. If any day makes you feel old and stuck on reflection it is Christmas. Gut punch this one, but we carry on.
I've also started using the home heating for the first time. Ever. Not sure if age related and geezer bones but I usually laugh at people who get dramatic about 'freezing' weather. Now I'm sipping hot green tea wearing socks and complaining about cold toilet seats ???.

In my old flat I had to scrape I've off the inside of the windows every winter morning, it never used to bother me, since I've moved into a flat that I can actually keep warm I need to keep the temperature at around 17 degrees or I feel too cold

Haha, that's me too. Don't really understand anyone that drinks anymore. Trouble is, if you are around people that drink and you don't drink yourself, you feel like a bigger oddball than you already are. It's a strange feeling. One reason why I mostly just stay at home. Alcohol is nowhere.

I mean, I still drink... but only socially. For instance, when I'm with my brothers and we're hanging out. Or at a party. But I'm pretty careful about how much I drink, and usually make sure I have something to eat. Getting smashed to the point of not making any sense is something I haven't done in years and frankly... if I ever did, it's not something I'd run to my buddies boasting about it.

Sensible. I did try to have a drink at a gathering a few months ago. It was my first taste of alcohol in something like 8 months. I had a sip and thought to myself how disgusting it tasted. A couple of sips later and I realised that I was just not into it and stopped immediately. It just made me feel flustered. it's a sign that I have got old or else just become a teenager again.

I can quite happily get pissed at home on my own, people think it's sad but I enjoy it, I only do it every now and again, I enjoy a drink with a mate or two every now and again (once ever couple of months) the thought of sitting in a pub with a group of people makes me break out in a cold sweat.
1- I don't like people
2- I dislike groups of people even more than I dislike people
3- to deal with situations like that I drink
4- when I drink in a crowd I don't have any control, I'll be absolutely wankered before the night is done and the fact that I've always been able to hold my beer works against me

I think that's exactly what it is. Since I moved in a few months ago I'll catch blasts of cold air and occurs to me I have three times as many windows now. Even a full length window in the kitchen. Who the hell installs a full length window in a kitchen ffs. Not to mention all wood floors now save for two bedrooms so once it hit 34' last night it felt like a skating rink. Just time to break out the caulking and perma seal some windows. Of course down here it'll be back to 90' next week.

You sound a bit like how I used to be. I used to drink a fair bit on my own too. I still don't like people very much and I still really hate groups of people too, but I just don't drink anymore. It's odd not drinking sometimes but I prefer it now.
