I remember seeing those rotary nose hair trimmers at my old-timer barber shop in the 1970s and 80s. They came on a card that shrieked in large print, DON’T PULL HAIR FROM NOSE, may cause fatal infection

I am so old! Yesterday I was discussing with 3rd year uni-students “how weird” it is that I grew up without cell phones or computers! “Like, how did you get around the city or meet up with people?” - “we used maps and we set times/places to meet and then we’d be there at that time and at that place.” - “OMG so weird!”

  1. I am old.
  2. I no longer believe in “a well balanced diet” as my body’s tolerance for two food groups petered out due to age and hormonal changes. I have to pay attention to what I eat because my Ferrari metabolism is now a Segway.
  3. I used to think my mom was heavy at her weight and my age. I am the same weight she was (when she was healthy) and my age-cohorts worry I may be too thin and lose my curves.
  4. I am asking my age-cohorts what anti-aging skincare products they use.

It just occurred to me that Drax is the inverse of the Darmok and Jalad aliens from ST:TNG.

In a couple of weeks, kids who weren’t even born when 9/11 happened will be old enough to get a driver’s learners permit.

Macaulay Caulkin is old enough to run for president this year. I recall reading a sci-fi novel that mentioned “President Caulkin.”

I am amazed I ever managed to find anyplace without GPS. I had a lot of napkins with crude maps and directions written on them, and a road atlas. And I got lost a lot
 but that was okay because gas was about 60 cents a gallon.
