Poll: OMFG I think I'm OLD!

[tkioz]

So I just had a moment of "OMFG I think I'm old" when I stuck my out my front door and screamed at the kids across the street "turn that bloody music down".

See it was some techno garbage playing so loud I couldn't hear my TV over it (at 50%), a good 100 meters away through 4 walls, and I could literally feel the base through my feet.

So am I an old fart or just really cranky today?

 

[MurderousToaster]

Well, if you'd tell us your actual age it would help.

Regardless, I'd shout at people playing all this dance music bullshit that loud.

I'm 29.

When your first though is "OMG im going to post on a video game website and tell everyone about this"...yea no, you might be physically so, mentally....

My first reaction was pure and utter terror that I'd turned into my father, but I realised I was sober and not hitting anyone, so I figured I'd double check.

Being an old fart is awesome. I look forward to aging. You get to yell at kids and tell them to play hoop and stick.

 

[Arionis]

Did your teeth fall out again while yelling at them?

Were you wearing suspenders?

Will Batman escape the Joker's dastardly plot?

If you said yes to two or more of these questions, then....yes,you prolly old.

 

[Denamic]

I yell at people all the time.
Have been since I was a teen.
Kids 'blasting' music on their annoying speaker cellphones on the buss?
Yeah, they're getting chewed out.

So long as you didn't drive to an early morning bingo tournament beforehand with your left turn signal on all the way. Or yelled at them with a glass of prune juice in your hand while waving a cane with your pants up to your nipples. Or some other old person stereotype. Then I think you're good

3) of course.

err the cane thing... you know I didn't wave it or anything (I kind of need it to stand up) so err kind of worried here now.

 

[DoctorNick]

Yes, you are an old bastard now.

Don't feel bad though, I'm only 22 and there are already days I want to put on a pair of sweats, drag a rocking chair out front and sit in it with my 12-gauge across my lap while yelling at people going by to stay off my property.

God damned kids are getting uglier each year also...

All this is is that you've come to the realization that when 'old' people yelled at you about your loud music it's because they too, thought your music sucked so hard it might create a black hole of idiocy.

We unlock these secrets as we age my fellow Metal Monkey.

You are old. Sorry to say this man. But on a lighter note, buy my hair growth formula guaranteed to get the ladies!

 

[Nalgas D. Lemur]

Eh. If you are, so am I. I'm the same age and have been shaking my fist at kids and yelling at them to get off my lawn for years already. My girlfriend thinks I'll make an awesome old man, because I already have so much practice and enjoy it so much. Heh.

And the important thing is that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time...

You pass. You not old. But you're no spring chicken either.

*takes hair growth formula, sniffs, glances eyes over at Douk, and hands it back* Smells like piss.

 

[Housebroken Lunatic]

I can't wait 'til the day I turn into an old geezer.

Im going to relish being that "scary man" on the block that all kids fear, and who's got a really vicious dog namned "Baxter" or something like that who keeps intruders off the lawn. Preferably I'll be living in a house that looks extremely haunted as well and have some sort of spooky hobby going on in the basement like taxidermy. ANd if neighbours caused too much of a racket they'd find several stuffed bats and mice stapled to their front door in the morning.

That's what im gonna be when I grow old. >

Well at 21 I was staying at a hotel and there was a menagerie of loud annoying teens playing music and yelling, and I told them to shut the hell up. So yeah, it doesn't matter how old you are. If you want peace and quiet, you want peace and quiet. Especially if you've been driving for the last ten hours.

 

[Optimus Hagrid]

Holy crap, you noticed this too?

The kids in the lower years in my school are assuming the size and shape of trolls more and more every year.

Is that the American suspenders or are we hinting at cross dressing here?
According to this I am old as I wear braces. Which is what we call suspenders in the UK! I hate most "kids" with there hippity hoppity hopping crunky garagey James Blunty twaddle!

Music ceased being relevant in the late nineties. In answer to your question yeah you are but that's cool.

Pro tip, if your living in a flat with a fuse box in the hall every flat is identical in build and the tossers above are having a rave. Go upstairs with a bottle of beer say "Dave invited me!" walk in calmly pull the main fuses to the flat throw them out the window and go back to sleep.
