The "things that make you realise you're getting older" thread

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

Getting up after a night on the sauce & needing two massive pisses within 10 minutes of each other.

 

 

Time to go to the doctors, mate

 

Sounds like it's time you got a ruddy good bum-fingering, Mook.

 

EDIT: That's not an offer, just to be clear.

A good bum fingering usually clears it up, I find.

 

Either that or shoving a bottle of champagne up my arse.

Easy decision really. One option is filthy. Eugh. Champagne, disgusting.

Things falling out of your ears.

This reminds me of The Fly with Jeff Goldblum (whatever his name is) when he's turning into The Flyand scratches his ear and it falls off.

[Johnlj]

some of the eyebrow hairs growing in weird directions and getting oddly stiff, the nose and ear hair. The worst thing is how gravity seems to dislike ones balls though.

25 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall. Fuck.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Needing glasses. I know a lot of people need them from young, the genetic mutants, but being the Aryan love God that I am, I've always had good eyesight. Now I'm fucked. I'm going to have to give in, because I'm squinting all over the shop trying to read.

I was so proud of my eyesight but at the way its deteriorating now I'll be blind within the next 5 years.

I choose to think now that glasses are very sexy

Being able to listen to Smooth FM for more than eight minutes.

Yeah, I'm choosing to believe the same thing. And they do, you're right. My hair is starting to shift a bit, too. Once it gets to a certain stage, I'll go for the bald man with glasses but a cool beard look.

[Dr Nowt]

Cool beard - check.

Blind as a fucking bat - check.

Hair thinning - uncheck, hairdressers laugh at the amount produced when I just have a trim, I've got hair like Teenwolf.

 

In the last 6 months or so I've gone over that line from needing glasses for certain things to needing them for everything, and can't function at all without them. Just need someone to invent windscreen wipers for the bastards at this time of year.

I too am cursed with hair as thick as a Badger's back. I hate it.

[Mook]

Glasses are hot as fuck on women.

 

Probably the hottest thing after sussies.

[Jairzinho]

It's surely preferable to being bald?

[Champ]

It's surely preferable to being bald?

Not if its on his back too

[stringvest]

I've given in and got two pairs now - one for computers and reading.  Still got me hair though.  And I'm rocking a tight beard, but that's coming off before it gets hipster.  

 

And women in glasses are hot.

[raininblood]

Standing at the pier head in a strong wind (yesterday) and noticing that my left eyebrow was getting blown all over the place, when glancing up I could see it moving back and forth and it constantly needed fixing, unlike the 'hair' on my head ! fucking hell :rolleyes:

christ how long is it?  what about your right eyebrow?  or have you got some sort of Phil Oakey thing going on but with eyebrows?

[ph245]

I'm with you on the specs, I need to wear them virtually all the time to watch the telly.

 

Hair-wise, I'm the envy of my slap headed mates, but I'm slowly going grey.

But the worst part is my nose hair growth..... nobody told me about that!

 

And women over 30 are now more my bag...

[Mook]

What do people on here do about their nasal hair?

 

I pull it out, it's a tearful job but it takes longer to grow back in that way.

[ph245]

Certainly brings tears to the eyes alright !

I pull the fuckers, shave the fuckers & I got some kind of contraption that 'trims' them. 

 

2 days later the twats are sprouting again.

Rock. And. Roll.

 

Ours are going away tonight. There'll be Champagne chez Champ

On the upside it does mean I'm able to watch something on telly tomorrow afternoon. In a big City pub ... So maybe not so good.
