what's the moment you realized you were getting old

Since its gotten colder I've caught myself making a pot of coffee after dinner every night. I remember my granddad and dad doing this when I was a child and wondering why they would do it. Is this an old man move?
I was getting older the day I was born. Death is a friend. Death is a door that opens and lets me walk into a sublime dimension heretofore unimaginable.
 
When you start working with people your children's age.

Not that I know anything about that.
Just hired an associate. Really solid dude. Gonna be a rockstar in this field. Overheard him yesterday on the phone and his birth year was 95. I graduated high school then. That one got me.
My back and knees remind me daily I played way to hard in my youth, but damn was it fun.
 
Today is my 50th birthday, but I look and feel like I'm in my 30s. Other than when I had to get my first pair of reading glasses early into my 40s, nothing has really made me feel old.
Happy Birthday man!

It's funny how the sub 40 guys in this thread are bitching more than the 40+ guys. I guess our generation is Charmin soft.

Can't imagine how much the next generation will complain

I've been outed as a sub 40 guy lol but I still identify as old. I groan when I get out of my chair, make my own spaghetti sauce and get constipated once a month.

Agree 100%. I'm all about the dives and joints. Gimme a good bar conversation over the thumping music of a nightclub/hipster joint.
I'm at the age that I'd prefer sipping on a cocktail in your kitchen, taking notes while you cook up some of those dishes that you've shared pics of in the past over either of those options

Yep….43 here and was a the wife’s family reunion end of Oct. Noticed this weird feat goes from oldest down…my brother in law is 32 and whined the whole time about pains or something. It really is scary and honestly 1 of the most necessary immediate changes. It really is pathetic how scared and wrapped up in their feeling….just crazy. 🤷‍♂️

Also….they are the start of the BS….he watches people play games on YouTube (not for tips/secrets)….INSTEAD OF PLAYING THE FUCKIN GAME! WTF is that shit….we used to fight and complain about having to sit out and wait.

My wife had surgery today and brought her pink purse. Then I found out I had to take the purse with me when she went back. I carried it to the cafeteria. I realized I am old because I didn’t really give a shit. When I was younger, I would have been embarrassed. Of course, this hospital is in Orlando and just down the street from the Pulse nightclub shrine, so walking around with a purse is probably the norm there.
 
I will say, while the nose and ear hairs remind me I’m getting older I still managed a 27 minute 5k a week after Covid. I know it’s not great but still happy I could do it.

Of course it helped having a younger dude in front of me with a man bun wearing skinny sweats. Ain’t no way he was going to beat me.
 
Pfffft, you're just getting started. My wake up piss comes at 2am and by 530am I'm awake for the day but can't stay up past 10pm unless I'm out at some function and even then it's a bitch.
I can piss out 2 gallons right before bed, usually between 10-10:30pm, and around 2:30am I wake up and piss with the force of a collapsed dam. I have no idea where all that piss comes from.
 
For me, seeing the gray hairs coming in on my chest. I got out of the shower one morning and thought a few of the hairs were still wet, because they were glistening a bit. Upon closer inspection, nope, gray/white hairs coming in. And those things are thick and strong...like regular hair on crazy old man steroids!
They say that taking a copper supplement might just fix those grey hairs.

They have a name for that. It's called "nocturia".

Might try this. No guarantees, but it might help.

Are there any natural remedies for nocturia?

Pumpkin seed extract: Research suggests this is beneficial for both nighttime urination and OAB. Magnesium hydroxide: These supplements were shown in one small study to improve symptoms of urinary incontinence and nocturia in over 50 percent of female participants.Apr 24, 2017
