This is a question Evidence that you're getting old

Youthful as I am, I realised yesterday that I no-longer know, or care, who is #1 in the charts. Furthermore, it takes all day to get rid of a hangover and I now seem to have a profound interest in gardening. Worst is that I now use words like 'furthermore'.

What makes you think that you are getting old?

This is a QotW answer I'm 16
But already im considered a grumpy middle aged man.
This started 5 months ago when my then girlfriend started finding grey hairs all the time.
I no longer think of growing a beard in terms of "looking cool" and now prefer to "look distinguished".
I have Chillblains. This is a swelling of the toes caused by deteriorating cirulation. Most sufferers are around 50+. Whats more, i sit and curse about it like a middle aged man.
When John Peel died, i felt like id lost the only person in the world who i truly identified with.
Im organising a trip to paris next year in an attempt to "re-capture my youth before it's too late"
I have a caffeine addiction.
Rather than an all out party, i went round to a mates for a classy "cheese and wine night" carrying a bottle of "Bordeaux superieur" warning everyone to savour it.
I'm starting to think im too old for dating.
in May this year i gave up my Saturday job working in a kitchen for four hours a week because i decided i was: "Working too hard" and that catering "wasn't the career path for me"
I was 15 at the time and i considered it a career change. I chalk it up to youthful lack of logic, but i know that its a premature mid-life crisis.
