I have learned the difference between “your” and “you’re”.
For me, it’s correcting people that.
I guess I’m still growing as a person
You start correcting people when they say “your” instead of “you’re” :-)
Quite the opposite.
The older you get the less clever it feels to point out the common mistakes of others
It’s replaced with a desire to help people be better.

I agree actually, I was only kidding because of the subject of the post.
Agreed. Matter of fact, I usually direct the offending party to one of two, if not both, sites.

Always a good time.
I don’t heal as fast anymore. Cuts and scrapes turn into scars easier.

I find it takes much, much longer to heal from injury. That’s the main downside I’ve experienced. When I say longer - when about 8 yo I broke my arm, it took 5-6 weeks to heal, maybe 10 to really heal, stop swelling ever and feel exactly like the other. When about 45 I broke my finger and it took 2 years to fully heal and feel like the rest of them.
But it also takes longer to get mad, I’m less irritable, more perspective I guess. Easier to feel happy/satisfied, too, it’s closer to the surface now.
My what?
TURN UP YOUR HEARING AIDS OLD TIMER
All pro athletes are younger than me. Except maybe a hockey player or two.
Completely walking away from sports you followed with passion your whole life because you just aren’t interested in learning the next crop of pros. Also, you know the way money and politics and other things force things in sport and it takes the fun out of it…same can be said for music.
For me it clicked when pretty girls started tallking and being nice to me
It’s probably because you stopped caring so much and acting awkwardly around them
It is! Hence the realization that I got older. Sorry, re-reading my comment above I wasn’t clear
“You’ve exited the dating pool but aren’t in old adult territory yet”, someone I’ve heard describe it once.
Back pain
Deadlifts fixed my back pain completely. Ymmv.
thanks, i’m trying with swimming now, hopefully it’ll help
Finding grey hair in your beard. The first time I started to feel older was once I found a couple grey hair in my beard. None in my hair, just beard
Nah you’re not really old until you find grey hair in your pubes
Haha, thanks!
Worrying that every unexpected pain in your body will be cancer.
I’ve been like that since 15, that’s just being a hypochondriac.
Your first gray pube.
What age?
For me sometime soon after 40.
That you are alive is the surest sign.
Less birthday parties for you, more for younger folks.
When I get up after sitting on the ground for a while my knees are stiff.
Get off my lawn.
Making interjections when standing up, from a chair, from bed, getting out from your car seat, etc …
Preposterous!
