When you realise you’re older than your parents were on family photos

When you stop anticipating fashion trends. I can distinctly pinpoint when the current style and my style began to diverge. (When clothes became ugly, obvs, lol)
You start your convo with " eee when i was your age…"
I do that! The kids (ppl in their 20s) love it!
Hahaha omg! I’m so sorry! Hahahaha tho! oh noooo!
What your 21?!..ohhh you’re just a baby!
You just realised how patronising you must be to the younguns
Hahaha, yeah, they don’t really love it! They probably forgive us tho. On account of the being old.

@Runningfree age spots really is a misnomer, imho, just like liver spots. They should just call them sun spots.
I definitely knew that I was old when I prefered brunch over dinner, muted the phone after 8 pm, needed new glasses every 2 years and my study colleagues could be my children
Oh, and I realized that I’m fuck that shit old when I chose myself over my loveless drinking husband. Since then I grew really old: I talk more to plants and pets than to people, I am constantly busy busy minding my own shit and I shop online because perimenopause hit with all it’s glory, including massive weightgain
And I too prefer slippers now!
Tell people that i remember ration books still used them a few years after the war ,and you grew up without internet or mobiles lol
