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 well coming from the geek angle
1) I was a geek when it MOST CERTAINLY wasn't cool
2) I used to race to the BBC's at lunch time
3) BASIC
4) Black and white tv
5) Our phone was a 'stick you finger in it and twist' type with an actual ringing bell.
6) Arcades used to be cool, not just fucking driving/dancing games
7) Game and watch was the pinnacle of handhelds.
8) Atari 2600 was the pinnacle of consoles.
9) I remember thinking games like the 'crap 80's game' I made were great. Play SERVANT!
