Andee 220524 Report post Posted July 16, 2011 You know you're old when you realize you saw the first concert Kiss ever performed in Montreal (at the Forum) back in 1976 almost 20 years before your nieces and nephews who listen to them now, were born.

mrrnice2 157005 Report post Posted July 16, 2011 Along the same lines as Angela, I recall seeing the Farewell Tour for Bob Dylan and The Band in the Montreal Forum, again I believe in 1976! But, and this is sooo cool to me, I am 58 but know what, I don't feel the least bit old. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reuben Sandwich 13841 Report post Posted July 16, 2011 You know you're old when milk, bread and even liquid bleach (the Javel Man) was delivered to the home. When Rush was an opener for J. Geils and Rory Gallager was the headliner. Like mrnice2, I have never been one for feeling or acting my age. It's not a yearning for a lost youth, just share your experience and gain more too.

Posted via Mobile Device You know you're old when only people in your age group know who Rory Gallagher was - such an underrated musician who was taken from us way too early in life. And when you introduce him to younger people, they ask, how come I never heard of this dude? A hidden gem for sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted July 16, 2011 (edited) You know you are from the same age group (not old) when the lady you are seeing can discuss things from the same era as you and you both know what is being talked about, because your both the same age give or take a few months You know you are old when ladies calling themselves cougars are really kittens You know you are old when retirement is close You know you are old (maybe experienced too) when it is the company, in entirety, of an SP you look forward to, not just the sexual side of the encounter, or put another way, you do your thinking with the big head, not the little one LOL RG Edited July 16, 2011 by r__m__g_uy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can relate to every one of those Angela, except the 9 year old niece (don't have one) But to add, that rotary phone was on a party line too And if you went to the movies, you stood up at the beginning of the movie for the National Anthem RG 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jafo105 39057 Report post Posted July 16, 2011 You know you are old when you still have the first push button telephone from the 80's. And it still works like a charm. You know you are old when you come to attention for the national anthem on Canada Day and everyone else is sitting down. You know you are old when you can remember the union jack flag was the flag of Canada. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted July 16, 2011 You know you are old when... 1. All of the bands that you listened to as kids have members that could qualify for CPP and the Old Age Supplement. 2. That hot chick that you lusted after in high school is now a grandmother. 3. You need a nap before looking at porn. 4. You consider getting out of bed, out of a chair or off the couch as exercise. 5. Your eyebrow hair has taken on a new life and direction of its own. 6. You can remember a time when there was only one vampire. 7. Your kids laugh at all the movies that scared you.

You can remember the Toronto Maple Leafs winning the Stanley Cup. (apologies to Leafs fans for bringing this up) Neil Young joined Crosby, Stills and Nash.

Nicolette Vaughn 294340 Report post Posted July 17, 2011 You have an original Nintendo system from 1985 and it still works! Your kid is about to get their driver's license when it just felt like you got your own. You remember when people were allowed to smoke on a plane and in offices. When television sets were black and white or those that didn't have remote controls. You remember the original Darren on Bewitched. You know all the theme songs to all 60's and 70's sitcoms. You remember when Bob Barker from the Price is Right had brown hair instead of grey. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
