9/11 is now closer in time to the fall of the Berlin wall than it is to now.

Ashton Kutcher's next movie sees him playing the "dad" role to a 22 year old actor. Ouch.

Eminem's daughter just graduated from high school.

When you start to become older than some of the players on the football field.

I know it's not much but it's something. :lol:

When you see "I'm only 12 years old and now THIS is real music! Everyone my age listens to One Direction" on YouTube and want to punch cunts.

Not really an example of 'you know you're old when', but there are some interesting ones like that.

Terminator 2 is closer in time to the moon landing than it is to today.

Can't believe that bullshit is still a thing.

It started before I even turned 12, yet from the first day I saw it, it's pissed me off :lol:

For the first time, but certainly not the last, I began to believe that Arsenals moods and fortunes somehow reflected my own. - Hornby

I still use a cell phone with buttons, I like to punch the buttons with my thumb using just one hand. I consider holding a phone with one hand and swiping it with the other awkward and unnecessary extra work. I also feel more in control of things punching the buttons with my thumb as if I have everything "under my thumb".

Still waiting for detox

It'll be a cold day in hell when dre releases detox. We know andre is a fucking perfectionist. Remember dre has had so many artists he signed but they left due to him being so anal on the music.

That's why I'm old.

I'm noticing that, and I not even old enough to go out yet.

Wen I was like 12 or 13, I could feel completely fine after about three hours of sleep. All nighters weren't much of a problem either,

Now, any less than five hours and I'll just pass out at 11 am if I'm at home.

Watching football is easy, as after an arsenal game i can go back to bed. The last time I pulled an all nighter after working, I ended up falling asleep behind the wheel twice.
