...you show up to a job interview and you immediately get that look, "I thought you'd be younger."

When your doctor asks for a urine and stool sample, and you leave your underwear and go home.

When the average 11 year old girl out-climbs you at the gym and it doesn't bother you.

Jody,

I believe those were BVDs. BVD is a brand of men's underwear, which are commonly referred to as "BVDs." The brand was founded in 1876 and named after the three founders of the New York City firm Bradley, Voorhees & Day (thus "B.V.D.").[1] The term came to be used, however incorrectly, for any underwear in the style popularized by BVD. The BVD brand, originally produced for men and women, is now produced solely for men by Fruit of the Loom.

DVDs, of course, are in a whole different category.

You KNOW when you’re getting old. You slide into really old age without knowing or caring.

You know yer getting old when you realize that the majority of people are dumber (hence younger) than you are.

I wish someone would tell me 91 yr old mum she’s old.
She still makes a face if I try to slip cheap champagne past her!

Droopy ballsack can be lessened by either a rubber band up and over your piece or maybe a old sling around your neck and under the scrotum.

You guys are depressing. I still drive a sports car (fast where it is safe).
Next week I have a date to go shooting with a pretty woman in her thirties.
I'm getting a barn built and plan to breed mules.

You are old if you feel old.
(thank god for analgesics,..)

edit for locker; if women ignore you then you don't have an age problem, you have a wealth problem

Speaking of me 91 yr old mum. She comes in with a couple of watches. She has dozens.

“How often do I have to wind these?”

“They have batteries. You don’t have to wind them.”

“When did that happen?”

“Uh, 30 years ago, at least.”

“I wish somebody had told me. I’ve wasted a lot of time winding all my watches all these years!”

😳🙄😩😬

You can’t make this up.

Peter Haan in reply to a Jim Donini inquiry on how he stays so young:

"Well, Jim when Tallulah Bankhead was asked how she kept HER youth, she responded, 'I send him a check'."
