When you're flitting with the girl at the nutrition store and realize jail bait is much more prevalent in this world of social media.

...when you plug in your USB cable and almost every time you have it backwards and have to turn it around. The probability is 50/50, but when you are old, that seems to drop to something like a 10/90. To keep the probability gods happy, the kids must almost always plug USB cables in the right way the first time.

You know your old when you don't know how to post pictures on the forum. A week ago I didn't know what a Usb-c was.

You know you are old when you remember a time when we didn't have cell phones.

I knew I was old when I told someone I was 40 and they replied "No, you're half way to 80!"

And that was 8 years ago....
