That gen that was told never get old, you're special, live your drean... is getting old. Gonna be echoes of Boomers on steroids. Sit back and watch them get old... Lol. No way anyone will top the Boomers for whining their way into old age. The original "you're special" demographic will remain the entitlement champ for a long, long time... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I had my glasses on when I came home, have no idea where they are now. I have searched everywhere in the house including the fridge and the freezer as well as the garbage cans. (how pathetic is that) I hadn't even been smoking or drinking, that changes when I get home from work today. @#$& ageing Did you look on the bridge of your nose? Every time I lose them, that's where they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I represent that statement! but I’m not convinced anyone ever called me “special” I remember feeling old when I realized my coworkers weren’t born when JFK was shot.

CowgirlsFan Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Mr CGF does a lot of substitute teaching for a local school district. He's 66 years of age. Most of the kids are just blown away when they find out their teacher could be their GRANDFATHER!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All_Pro_Bills Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 You know you're old if you and your friends went outside and played a game of pick up football or baseball without parental supervision. We came home when it was dinner time. Kids now under 12 have spent maybe 15 minutes of their life without their parents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, "parenting" has become highly structured, often not to the benefit of anyone. I have a good friend who is a high school teacher in WNY; he tells me it is a constant problem dealing with kids who think the world should revolve around them, b/c that is how they were raised by their parents.

/dev/null Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I started a new job on Monday and during the new hire orientation they went over pension, 401k, and social security. The moment when you start to realize retirement isn't as far off as you remember it used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
