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

Good work Al.  This is the only way to try and mitigate the effortless cool and charm of the dancing male.  Shunned by one and all.

 

Backs to the wall lads, there's a poof in town.

Anybody else got that pic of Louis and Rico in their heads?

There is nothing more heterosexual than a group of men sitting together, trying to outdo each other with homophobic gibes, to mask their own insecurities, towards the man surrounded by gash.

[Alan Sex]

Oh, women do love a poof don't they.

 

And yes.

You'll not play for yarkshire. No offence.

Been taking ice skating lessons as a joint activity to keep the missus happy. Teacher does not understand that my knees and ankles simply do not twist and bend in the way that she wants them to. And looking over my shoulder whilst going backwards is a frigging nightmare as well.

 

Not helped by the class of 6 year olds appearing to do everything naturally on the other side of the ice

 

Oh fuck no.

I'll have a short back and sides sweetheart.

 

Now pass me Razzle.

[PestiRed]

Oh fuck no.

 

Actually this is what pisses me off. I can go forwards, I can go backwards to an extent, I can change direction and I can stop. Outside of playing ice hockey, why do I need to learn more? Because I have made it very clear that I will never do any of that dancing shit

You doth protest too much PR. I smell a rabbit off.

 

Are you Torville ?

[PestiRed]

I will never be Torville. My ankles are clearly too knackered from football for that. And I upset the teacher too much. A couple of weeks ago she asked me who was the boss. I said me because I was paying for the lessons. Her communist brain exploded and now she pretty much leaves me alone

I went to salsa classes with an ex for a few weeks.

 

Hated every second of it. I've two left feet and I'm right footed. There's something seriously dodgy about a bloke if he's a good dancer.

Did salsa with an ex when I was 18. When it became apparent I was a million times better than her at it she saw her arse and stopped us going

you should have done jiving.  you could have seen her arse then as well

[Alan Sex]

I'm good at hand jiving.

 

Well, wanking really.

 

I've got rhythm and a few moves. I can really keep to the beat.

[Dr Nowt]

I did a tango class in a BA hostel years ago (I could just count steps like Rain Man so my lack of any funk or rythmn caused no impediment) and got paired up with a pensioner with pendulous jugs who looked like Don King, had something sexual written on her chest that escapes me now, and kept shooting me the sort of glances a fox does a chicken.

 

Her hands got more closely acquainted with my arse than mine ever did the handlebars of my favourite childhood bike, and I count myself very fortunate to be around to tell the tale. Fingered her, obviously.

If he's just building up his NCD I reckon he might save himself a few pounds. I never just renew without doing a comparison search first. The first rule of insurance...loyalty doesnt pay

[RedinSweden]

Car Insurance in UK seems to have gone a bit bonkers. I wonder what I would be paying for insurance on a normal car, in a pretty normal/a bit rural location fully comp for a year. Any ideas, it would be interesting to compare?

I think it very much depends on how old you and possibly how lomg you've been driving. We run 2 cars insured for just the 2 of us to drive and insurance is about £240 on both cars. To add junior, aged 20, to either policy would cost us another 2 grand minimum. Crazy money

You know you're getting old when you're getting ready to go to the match and you have a replica shirt but choose not to wear it.
