[Rocket Spud]

I had a lot more sense when i was younger

[Oddity]

AHA! So I'm not the only one! My libido drops right off the more I drink, probably why I've never "got some".

[Rocket Spud]

Nah, you're not the only one!

Hmm, difficult to put decently, but: i can get 'ready to go', just i can't 'erupt' ... well, it's difficult. This is exactly the reason why i don't have a girlfriend - she'll find out and turn me into a pisshead!

Ha, I remember when it was like that

Still cant get over seeing groups of adults wandering around blind drunk in "Ghostie and Goblin" costumes. Such things never happened in the old days.........

Yes, looked like some of the drunks had put in a fair bit of effort with their costumes in my neck of the woods too.

Why do they bother, though? They'll just end up covered with vomit and booze stains anyway.....

When you hear the name "Talk Talk" you think of a band from the 80s.

Were they the mob with the Caveman lookalike drummer ?

Wild, unkempt, sort of look I suppose is what I was meaning.

You walk back from the shop with teenagers all in a line and you can't pass them because they are just rude!

Even worse the morning after a few beers

You know you are getting old when you double lock the front door at 6pm

[Mole58]

You know you are getting old when you go to the supermarket eggless, and you come back eggless, having dropped a carton of six on the floor, by the checkout.

[AutumnLeaves]

When you wear brightly colored ear plugs in the library and don't feel embarrassed about it

[newbs16]

When you need the toilet in the night.

[Custard_cream]

You walk into the Coop and have to walk around until you can remember what you went in for.....five minutes later, I realise I went in for Milk!!

When you go to put the milk in the cupboard. When you go to tip your drink in the bin rather than down the sink.

Either I'm getting old or its the meds.

[Armadillo]

^ All of the above!

[newbs16]

When Emma Bunton is 40 years old!

[Armadillo]

^ You mean 40 years young, surely

[newbs16]

Make a drink, then go to the toilet sit back down and realise I've left my drink in the kitchen.

Half the people in the emergency services look to you like they could still be in school

[Sun Wukong]

^^ Haha, yep, and not being too keen on radio 1!

When the staff on the tills in supermarkets at the weekend look like they probably are still in school

When you google 'premature alzheimers symptoms', just to check, and then become convinced that's it's a distinct possibility.

You can't help making mild straining noises when you go from a kneeling to standing position.
