When you recognise perfectly well that what a young punk is trying to do is exactly the same thing you were known for 20+ years ago, but you still get annoyed because what you did is *different*.

:laugh:

That does it, time to check out sites with things to improve the elderly life Odeon. You're really growing old now. 

I thought this was it?

Poor odeon, how old are you?? :laugh:

As old as I am, give or take it a few months.

Yup. We are both ancient. :laugh:

You know you are getting old when every  possible sleeping position
causes you to rest your weight on some body part that hurts!  ::)

You know you're getting old when sex means "Male" or "Female", not the act.
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

In my more vivid dreams these last few years, I seem to be 20-25 years younger than my real age!  :orly:
I wonder why that is! Maybe I miss being younger, maybe I still *feel* young and am in denial about my real age...

And sometimes, given my family history, I wonder if it is a (very early) warning sign of dementia.  :-\

You know you're getting old when you look in the mirror and you're old.

A sneeze is a worry
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Because it could herniate something?  :orly:

If you're old, never trust a fart.
