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

I made a pop culture joke about the Olsen twins with someone who is Gen Z and he responded with “Who the hell are they?”

As somebody who grew up wearing their clothing line, cosmetics, and perfumes from Walmart, read so many of the book series based on the adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley and consumed so much Mary-Kate and Ashley media, I couldn’t fathom living in a world where younger adults wouldn’t know who the fuck they were anymore when they were such a big part of my childhood and early pre-teen years. I had to lie down for a moment after that one.

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

@Ferric67 If I’m not careful during my wake up stretch in the morning I give myself a fucking leg cramp…

@deadmoon that is an indication of low hydration/electrolyte levels

@Ferric67 Yeah, that has also gotten worse with me with age. I swear I need more and more water to feel hydrated these days.

@deadmoon are you on Meds? Certain medications can have that effect.
Generally speaking, the volume of water your body needs is comparable to your weight in kilograms or half of in pounds.
