5 great things about getting older

JimmyJeffers · July 3, 2020

As I begin my glorious journey into middle-aged wonder, I have noticed various things that the old boys kept hidden from us. Here is my list of 5 great things about getting older:
1) When talking to younger adults you start to delude yourself as a voice of authority on how things used to be.

2) Hair starts growing out your ears lol
3) If you go to certain barbers they offer to burn you ear hair off with wax :eek:

and trim your eyebrows!
4) you buy more expensive clothes and aftershave when going to social events to compensate for the baggy eyes and receding hair

5) you start making all manner of mad noises when getting up from the couch :hayee:

And one bad:
You feel like a total bum if you are still in bed at 9am on a weekend. :red:

GO EVERYONE!

You don't care what anyone thinks or says about you.

How old do I have to be to contribute to getting older threads?

You’re only as old as the woman you’re feeling

read that as "...the woman you're filling"

My eyes are bad. I'm getting old.

Haircuts are cheaper and they don’t take as long. I buy shoes to wear with jeans instead of trainers, looks a lot smarter. I care more about the impression this city gives to outsiders (you rs b#stards ) and like to leave a good impression myself. Older women have no problem telling you about there sexual adventures in great detail. Definitely an increase in masturbation ( see above )

Nothing.

Getting older is crap.

Age ain't nothing but a number and a growing list of chronic ailments.

The wiser you get...
The more Experience you have...
Senior discounts...
Retirement...
Better decision making...

You can't help getting older,
But you don't have to get old.
