Have you ever done something that makes you feel older?

[Jaranja]

So I'm sitting here, drinking a whiskey and reading the Escapist when I realise: I'm not acting like a 16 year old!

It's only a minor thing but, let me ask you, have you ever done something that makes you feel old? or younger if you like.

I am 48. Every thing I do makes me feel older now.

Taxes.

A couple months ago, I was sitting in a park by the river Thames where I was reading some poetry. I didn't just feel older, I did wonder if I had accidently traveled back 100 years...

I drink coffee, and read Stephen King novels.

You're 48, and on a gaming forum?

That's something you don't see every day.

Going to the DMV to go and renew my registration on my own...oh and the fact that my back and knees hurt all the time...

Walking in the mall.

Always makes me mad. I'm a sad little person.

I do my best to do nothing that makes me feel old. I'm still a kid really.

 

[Julianking93]

I drink tea, read philosophical books, and I'm a writer. I feel much older than 16.

 

[SilentStranger]

Sometimes I find myself reminiscing about past events that I know was absolutely horrendous as "the good old days"

 

[Hobo Joe]

I drink tea, my preferred choice of alcohol is Guinness, read plenty of very good books/plays, have seen films or television programmes most people my age would never have even heard of. I mention Dr. Strangelove, everyone looks at me funny.

I suffered a back-injury, Twelve Angry Men with Henry Fonda genuinely moved me, I read 8 chapters of Atlas Shrugged, and I un-ironically said "Ahh kids these days."

 

[Nwabudike Morgan]

I was at the bar with my friends last weekend when I realized "wait a minute, I'm drinking an Old Fashioned". That and the grey hairs I keep finding.

 

[Random Argument Man]

I pay taxes.

Although, I'm losing hair right now...It makes me feel older and lose manly points...
