My wife’s teenage brother saw a usb NES controller hooked up to my PC a couple years ago. He asked me what it was and I said “A Nintendo controller”. He replied “You mean like a Wii?”. I just stood there for a minute feeling old.
I can't sit on the floor to play with my son without an incredible ache in my knee. I hobble like a drunken octogenarian when I try to stand up. And now standing for too long gives me the same pain in my hip. This is all just bollocks.
I sat down and squished mine the other day. Tell your wife it means they're getting too full and she needs to empty them for you. Works for me usually.
When you actually have things to contribute to a 'you know youre getting old' conversation...and can't remember if you've already made that joke or not.

"Fight Club?"
"You've never seen it?!"
"I've never heard of it"
"So good. The guy who did Seven ..."
"Seven?"
Cell phones are basically mainstream for about 15 years now. It sure doesn't feel that long, but my age group (32) is pretty much the last ones to grow up without them
You're at a convention in San Francisco for work, by random chance you somehow end up with a night that you don't have a customer or vendor commitment to be at. Your first priority is to find out what is best on the room service menu at the hotel and be in a robe by 8:00....
