I feel old when:
Anyone I meet is younger than my favourite video game.
I find gray hair in my beard.
I look at my cousin (a month younger than I, and going full-blown salt and pepper in the hair department)
I realize how long I've had some of my toys for.
I flirt with women in their 40s.
I flirt with women in their 20s.
... I'm sure there's more, but there's some right there.

It's really only the shooters that bother me. I can still play Mariokart all day long, as well as most other games. The shooters though, I can't play the old ones now, the graphics just bug me too much.

The Swayze one. Though I did enjoy the new one. Shadowman wrote:Ironhidensh wrote:My nephew referred to Red Dawn as a classic war movie.

No. No it's not. No movie made after I was born is allowed to be a classic. This was the second or third video my mom and I ever rented from the video rental place shortly after it opened. This was a very big deal back in the eighties, so i remember it quite well.

Gonna have to disagree with you on that one, on the grounds that Ghostbusters came out after you were born. And also a big-ass list of other classic movies from the '80s and '90s that I can whip up in about five minutes.
