Getting old?
Post the tragedy of getting old here.
Last night i was enjoying listening to Kill 'Em All by Metallica when i bent over to pick a beer up and felt my back go. Hobbled but not bowed.

Come on if we can't take the piss out of the process how can the next gen feel good?
A while ago i drove my car to my very local supermarket. Bought my groceries and walked home (like i would usually). I got up the next day to go out to my car on the driveway... no. Remembered and went to the shop.. no. Cost me £180 in tow and storage fees.

I got an unsolicited discount on a haircut.
When I enquired as to why I got it cheap, he said something about over 60's being 40% off!
It came as a shock, especially as it was my 60th that day.
I quite like being my age though, stuff that seemed almost crucial at one time really didn't matter in the grand scheme of things.
I sleep much better too.

I hoped to apply for a very good mobile data deal only to find my first ageism...Ostermilk wrote: ↑31 Aug 2018I got an unsolicited discount on a haircut.

It's like all my worst night terrors. Just being thrown around and wiped out. Whatever has been printed isn't mine. Out of sight, out of mind.
Ive been treated well for sayin but this isn't a forum anymore. It's like writing on the out going tide. I'll still visit but that's it. I'm too old for the cakewalk and waltzers. Goodbye.
I'm such a fragile soul. So full of it. I mean well but am drunk so often. Thanks though. You've been so supportive and forgiving. Well done.
It is the middle of the nigjt for someone. The mods hate to delete threads so i understand. They very rarely do?

Old + being drunk is a dangerous combination.
I am 50. I love being able to play live and will do that 'till I can't do it anymore. The most enjoyable thing to do for me (with earplugs in!). This and having a warm and loving family is all I need.
I guess that's the main thing: asking yourself what you want. Then you know what you need.

I signed out of my youtube account last night and was confronted with a different homepage of 'trending' things. The videos were either absolute rubbish or things I didn't understand so I thought I would just see what 'the kids' are watching these days.
The one that stood out the most was by Nicki Minaj (aware of her name but never heard a track) called Ganja Burn. Absolutely atrocious nonsense but it has had 21 million views in 2 weeks! I could only take less than a minute of it.....my my I am an old fart.

Tend the flame
I ain't that old XD only 41, but I'm experiencing strange things. Like if I stay all night awake, not even partying, I am like if I had drunk a river that night with hang over and all, but without drinking nothing alcoholic. 10 years ago, I could stay awake several nights and I felt dandy afterwards...that's that!
You guys rock.
It's true about older women... I've always been attracted to them and women in their 50s who show some sexuality, that twinkle, are very attractive to me right now.

I will only say it once. But why so obscure? I'm convinced it's not a language thing by now. It seems to me you are intelligent and alternative and have something to say, yet you make it almost impossible to reply to anything you 'state'. I recognise this because i think i do the same sometimes. To me demt says demented in my mind.
Yes, being disgusted with Youtube trending is something I'm sure a few of us have experienced.Aosta wrote: ↑01 Sep 2018I signed out of my youtube account last night and was confronted with a different homepage of 'trending' things.

I kind of draw a line between man and child with Pokemon - if you know what Pokemon is you are a child to me and you always will be. Also, anything to do with the recent Youtbe fight with KSI and some other famous youtuber that trended like crazy - man and child cut off point there too.
Pokemon has been around for twenty years which means an average thirty year old might know about it.
