As we age we look for nostalgia around us, some times nostalgia isn’t the only thing that reminds us of our aging years though.
- “You’re in the supermarket, and you realize the music that’s playing was the same music at your Junior High homecoming dance.”
- “The cashier asks for ID for age-restricted items, and laughs.”
- “Your social media feed is filled with pictures of your friends’ kids and their latest achievements.”
- “A teacher once told you ‘You won’t always have a calculator in your pocket.'”
- “Hangovers have become an all-day affair instead of a quick recovery.”
- “You wake up injured, and don’t know why.”
- “When talking about directions, you say ‘Let me MapQuest it.'”
- “You printed out greeting cards and birthday banners with a dot-matrix printer.” Or simply, “You know what the holes on the sides of printer paper were for.”
- “You already know about A.I., and his name is Clippy.”
- “You Jeevesed before you Googled.” Or, “THIS is how you Googled something in your teens . . . ” and there’s a photo of ENCYCLOPEDIAS.
