You know you are getting old when:

I don't know what's more disturbing, that Tom Cruise could be from her grandma's generation or that I am the same age as Tom Cruise.

:eeek: :faint:

 

[V.C. Brunswick]

Yeah, but Tom Cruise has OT powers. He can shout at ashtrays and jump on a couch.

lol lol lol lol

That first one isn't the original either. It's by some 90s rapper who sampled it as well. The original is a capella.

I'm a frequent visitor to Disneyland and I went last night with my housemates. When we went on the It's A Small World ride a horrible thought occurred to me: The kids who provided the voices for the soundtrack are now in their early 60s! :eeek:

Stop being so fanciful Lizzie, you are much too young to be 52!

I was young once and I wasn't any good at it.

I was young once and I wasn't any good at it.

Not many people are, but the real trick is getting older and being any good at THAT.

And still just as annoying.

As my aunt used to say: "It ain't the golden years---its the tarnished years."

I feel a lot more fit, trim, and energetic at 60 than I did at 36.

Could be because I'm now semi-retired, hit the gym regularly, and don't have an infant in the next room waking me up every 90 minutes for a year and a half. The price you pay for delaying parenthood until you can actually afford to raise a child: energy level is a lot lower in your 30's than your 20's.

Every time I get on my Triumph for a ride, I am 18 again! Sometimes, that is a bad thing, when I look down at my speedometer.

Or look ahead at the approaching tree. :eeek:

Or the moron who has placed his two-ton p.o.s. directly in your path because he didn't see you.

Little known facts that makes you Wonder !

Betty White was born in 1922.

Sliced bread was invented in 1928.

Therefore, sliced bread is the greatest thing
since Betty White. :cheers1:

Man! I'm not ridding with you guys.

You just ride in areas that are far too safe.

 

[Stanley Doble]

The same abovementioned housemate definitely wouldn't like old black and white movies. "It's nothing but talking," he would say. Action adventure movies are more his speed.

Show him some Douglas Fairbanks silent movies. It's 1920s Parkour all done live with no stunt men or special effects.

This is what happens if you make a mistake. That is, if you are lucky. You don't want to know what happens when you are unlucky! Both the driver and passenger survived. [video=youtube;jdEKAIYxH9g]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdEKAIYxH9g[/video]
