You Know You're Getting Old When

You still handwrite your grocery lists on paper.
You still use a wall callendar and sticky notes to remember important dates, appointments, etc.
You still use those “little tree” air fresheners in your car.
You can remember when Taco Bell used to be super cheap: tacos :taco: for 59 cents each.
McDonald’s food tasted way better when you were a kid.

When you remember that long movies (Titanic or Braveheart for example) used to have an interval at the cinema, when they physically had to change film rolls.
And now you are always missing a few minutes in the middle because you can’t sit through a movie without a pee break :flushed:

Haha this one is so true! I just tried the maximum face filters and looked like Jessica Fletcher in the later Murder she wrotes, crossed with an alien with enormous eyes. I will stick with my slightly tired looking middle aged face!
