You read the title of a thread and think " yeah, i have a brilliant contribution to make to this", and by the time you have read everybody elses answers, you have forgotten what you were going to say.
Thats when you start telling people how forgetful you are because its the only thing you can remember about yourself.

...you start thinking of yourself as such.
Not me!!
You're only as old as you feel, and I still feel like a 21 year old.
Not sure where I might find one this time of day but..... |

The very first time you pick up a father's day cd whilst browsing in a store and think "Bloody hell, there's some good tunes on here"...
Happened to me for the first time about six or seven years ago. I strolled round virgin, nodding smugly along to a Killers track playing over the stores system. Male at the end of his twenties, I can mash it all night, use a 56kg dumbell for overhead pulls and Im old enough to earn decent poke. Life doesn't get better than this! I nonchalantly picked one up for the first time in a while thinking 'I wonder what teens gruntingly toss in front of their old dads now,' fully expecting to see a track listing containing Mott the Hoople, The Sweet and possibly The Stranglers (for the Dads who started a family young)
And there they were in all their wonderful but somehow horrific glory. The Happy Mondays. 808 state. Even early nineties sneakily included with the likes of The Charlatans.... Bands only from the very start of my getting seriously into music in a big way true, but they were MY bands!
For a second I was confused. How could these proclaiming magical artists of youthful rebellion bastardize themselves for this....pedalling their wares to older folks who didn't have a clue? Had they followed the naff kind of example of doing so set by Burtons?
Then the horrible truth came crashing in and my blood ran cold.... 
I've got over it now, mind.
Hell, Prodigy, Oasis and even Kasabian are probably on the damn things now for all I know. Plus Im content with the moniker of thirtysomething male, with a daughter of nursery age.
Its when she buys me one of The things to sneakily listen to herself that I'll fuck off to the allotment to sit in a shed... |

When you're proud of your bowel movements.

Some of the trainees at work were born after I passed my driving test.
When during a bit of downtime in work I look for the comfy chair to have a nap in, instead of getting a cuppa and play cards. |

When team members don't remember life before mobile phones and weren't born when Twin Peaks originally aired. You realise you're easily old enough to be their mother. The list goes on this week  |

On a similar note - a friend of mine filmed her 11yr old son on her mobile after she had put some tapes in the car...
Watching him turn it over in his hands (still in its case) and then trying to put the whole thing in the tape deck was both hilarious and tragic at the same time.
"what exactly *are* these, mummy?" |
