What Makes You Feel Old?

[Funkysandwich]

I remember when I was a kid, I really wanted a 16 colour screen for our computer.

That makes me feel old.

And some people I meet don't even know what a 486 is!

Every time I see someone posting on the internet that was born after 1995 or so(I was born in 1989)... and whenever see a kid run I wonder where the hell they get their energy from.

Can I just say that every single post in this thread makes me giggle "HA! NOW YOU KNOW!"

 

[BlastedTheWorm]

Pfft, half of you are still kids. You have no right feeling old.

Here's one.

"The Matrix came out over ten years ago."

This girl I met an took home suddenly exclaimed (just in time) how funny it was that we were ten years apart.. (I mentioned my age, she hadn't)

This thread. Seriously, reading about a bunch of people in their late teens/early twenties posting about how old they feel, and I'm 30.

Thanks for making my Monday morning even more depressing, guys and gals!

aww
IT's all right would you like some ice cream cake?

if it helps I don't think your old. if that makes you feel better.
It is more the realization that we are not the kiddies anymore.
and how the new generation SUCKS NOW!!!

I was washing my face the other day and saw that I have a deep line on my forehead. Eek! Wrinkles :'-( I'm only 21 ears old I'm not supposed to get wrinkles yet!!!
*sadface*

Thank you for virtual sympathy cake, although it must be said I'm quite enjoying my steady transformation from annoying young git into grumpy old bastard! I enjoy a good rant now and then, and the older and grumpier I get the more I have to rant about!

20 years old. Nothing specific, but the fact that i can clearly bring back memories that are older than 10 years, makes me feel old indeed.

 

[luclin92]

i feel old whenever someone mentions that graphics in a game. i got 19 today.

The next generation

I'm 20 and I'm already complaining about "Kids these days"...

I really don't see the appeal of Facebook, and most recent popular culture really annoys me.

Now, get off my damn lawn...

 

[NinjaDeathSlap]

What makes me feel old?..

Whenever somebody has never heard of Spyro or Hogs of War.

Bring. Them. F*cking. Back!

Young people telling me I'm old, that makes me feel old.

Plus the cane I walk around with, that also makes me feel old.

The internet make me feel ancient, I just can't keep up with the pace.

EDIT: I'm thirty-one (31) by the by.

 

[frans909]

Well I'll turn 20 in 1 month and 2 days and were I live you don't get the normal congratulations but everyone just tells you: "Hey guess what! You're half way to 40 now!". Everyone does it and it is kinda funny even if it might make one feel a bit older.

I'm 40. I don't really feel old. I try to stay 18 forever. Hah! The only time when I feel it is when I get a flu or something, you don't recover as quick as you used to.

I was talking to a younger friend about which games he considered to be crap. He said that every Sonic game was crap. I argued that the originals were pretty good. He said that the first sonic advenure wasn't very good. He literally did not know about the original 2D sonic games.
I'm only 17, but I wasn't sure whether to feel old or to believe the kid was an idiot.

 

[Vakz]

This. So much.

 

[derelict]

Old, eh?

I haven't had a vacation since before some of the people I work with were born.

I remember when 'technicolor' came out.

I used to own a turntable, and not a fancy DJ scratcher kind mind you, a wooden one that would still work if it had no power, if you hooked up the horn to it.

I remember having a Colecovision back when it was new.

I remember people talking about Desert Storm and Desert Shield, long before anyone was shooting at anyone.

Then there's the great deal of things that I tend to not remember, which makes me feel older still.

 

[MrAkuma201]

I'm 19 and most people think I'm 24.

I started feeling old when they announced they were putting the first season of Pokemon on Boomerang.
