you know that you are getting old when....

[Queen Victoria]

You remember seeing this picture when it originally came out.

And think that the haircuts are actually quite nice.

And think that the haircuts are actually quite nice.

I actually had a haircut like Sonny's for awhile in the late 70's!   

[odeon]

Yeah, I had something similar too.

["couldbecousin"]

Yeah, I had something similar too.

My father took me and my brother to a car dealership in 1978 to pick up our new butterscotch-colored Chevy Nova,
and I had THAT haircut, and the salesman said to me and my brother, "You two boys can ride in the back!"

This thread is making me feel my age.

["couldbecousin"]

This thread is making me feel my age.

Oddly enough, sometimes I *like* feeling my age. I am listening to 70's songs now, and I remember hearing them when they were new.
I like being old enough to remember so many great songs. I'm thankful for the time I've had, even though it went by so fast.   

[odeon]

Oh, I like my age. I just feel the downsides, every now and then.

["couldbecousin"]

Oh, I like my age. I just feel the downsides, every now and then.

Yes, I regret a lot of things, I should have taken better care of myself. But I like being 44.

A year or so before that, I went for really short hair for the first time. My brothers all three had the Sonny haircut. Mine went from long to pixie length.
Did wear the trousers that were quite tight above the knee, and got really really wide around the ankle.

Ah, and end seventies, a bedroom in green and orange painted walls, and jute wallpaper. 

[Al Swearegen]

Style and fashion hit some real lows in the seventies. On the flip side that was the disco era.

Ah, yes.  And we thought we'd invented marijuana.

" you know you're getting old when "



Frat parties are lame.


I went to a frat house yesterday. I was obviously the oldest person there. It was SO STUPID. I mean giggiling girls is bad, but giggiling guys is 10 times worse. I should start going after guys my own age cause I have absolutly nothing to say to these kids.

 :lol:  Giggling guys! My mother used to teach catechism, finally quitting when the kids got on her nerves too much,
and one of her most irritating students was a silly, giggly boy!

I can pass for 20   and I do all the time. But some of these "kids" are really immature. OR,  maybe Im just TOO OLD FOR THEM


they were like jumpin around making all kinds of sudden movements. I was like " uh, can we maybe sit down awhile"
