Just think, I'm just turning a bit crusty and in 1989 I was in 3rd grade.just listing on the Jobs thread made me feel old.
Writing insurance for a client who tells me his DOB is 1989 ( year i graduated high school ) or 1990s. I keep forgetting they are in their late 20s early 30s lol
oh yeah and my 12 year old daughter who is quick to remind me i will be 55 when she graduates High School.
At family gatherings and such, I would always be sure anybody older than me had a seat, and I would help them carry bundles in from the car. Its bittersweet to realize that I am now the one who is assured a seat, and my kids, nieces and nephews are rushing to carry my bundles. My son always insists on carrying my kayak, and pulling it out of the river for me. Things I used to always do for my children are being done for me. I'm 59.from Cracked
One of mine was years ago. I was driving past my old high school, that wasn't odd at the time I had to drive past it every day to get to work
There were a bunch of kids waiting at the corner to cross the street. Looking at them it occurred to me that someone who was born on my first day of high school was now in high school. That was when I ws 27/28 so it didn't make me feel "old" but definitely made me realize that time was passing
Having trouble remembering what someone told me last week but having total recall of a sitcom theme song from 35 years ago
Something else I always hear was when you get to the point that you don't recognize the host or musical guest on Saturday Night Live - you're old

I was just talking about this one last week, watching older movies and identifying more with the adults
Came across this talking about the Little Mermaid
Ariel: Daddy, I love him!
Me at 14: Yeah, girl, you tell him!
Me at 30:
Oh. Being "yes, ma'am"d by my nephew's GF. Told her she can call me "Miss Marsha" if she HAS to give me a title, but "ma'am" is totally off limits.

We become all those things we once laughed at.
I did too on a 74 chevy van with a 350. The clutch was so stiff that I had to almost stand up to depress it.
When I read that someone still reads the "paper" to see "today's birthdays" and I didn't even remember that that was a thing.When I read the "Today's Birthdays" section of the paper and after the first 6-7 people, I don't have any idea who these other people listed are. (they list them oldest to youngest)
