What is a major “I’m getting old” moment you’ve experienced?

I have just come from my daughters 46th birthday party. And relative ages, who was older than the internet, and things like what was "Classic rock" were subjects that rolled around the table all night..As a Boomer I got extra credit for knowing the House of the rising sun, and extra hugs for being the last grandparent standing. (My wife in care wasnt there)😷

I have had many, many going back decades. But recently it has been in connection with an oral history project I am working on regarding the housing I lived in while going to university in the 1950's. Having other alums from as far back as the late 70's reacting with surprise to things like switchboards, housemothers and lockouts for the women in gender-segregated houses, mandatory ROTC for men, ad infinitum is a reminder that "You've come a long way, Baby". Ah, yes. And the catch phrases. You can look it up, as Casey Stengel used to say. You can Google him and his sayings as well.

Having pain so bad I could not sit down at all, but could only eat, use the computer, etc., while standing up. I'm so thankful spinal decompression surgery gave complete relief.

One of thighs is killing me i asked my boyfriend if he'd massage it. It only happens when its cold so i know its arthritis it feels better when i stretch so i will do this dance every morning . I haven't even been 52 for three weeks and my body already needs some roadside assistance.

Watching football and recognising a name of a young player and wondering if he is a son of a famous player from my youth, only to find out he's a grandson.

Played football ⚽ for 45 minutes on the beach; ankles, knees and thighs screamed for the next 3 days

My oldest son will turn 49 this year. Im old

Idk, I'm 33 and I barely know who they are. But it's true that I know them as a meme though.

I feel like I’m aging when I pull muscles, and they hurt much longer than they use to

Grandkids, the 9 year old boys, say he is not allowed to fight old people

I have a new one to add now.

You know a lot of the alternative rock music millennials grew up listening to from 2000-2010 (Staind, Breaking Benjamin, Nickelback, Shinedown)? Yeah, Gen Z calls that “divorced dad” rock now… 💀

Too many! Recently last year a couple of lapses in memory, actually.

i remember them as babies on full house lol

Needing reading glasses

Sneezed and it threw my back out

Little kids have fucked up ideas about what "old" is.
