    You know you're getting old when playing the Simpson's pinball party and hear grandpa's call out "back in my day we didn't have flippers" and then remember playing flipperless pins on route

    Same here. When a coworker got a new apple phone I said the last new apple I got was a IIe with double floppy drive

    When you say to your 20 something coworker, "those guys are running around like the Monkees did on their show" and he replies "the who?"

    Then over a buck in the 70s. Waiting in line if it was your odd or even license plate # day. Thankfully it was 68.9 cents when I started buying in the 80s

    Quoted from OLDPINGUY:

    You know you are old, when Wisdom, with age, gets shot down by youth with rhetoric.

    So true. Especially now that the once adoring kids that though every thing you said or did was great now in their teens question and debate every thing you do...rhetoric

    Your birthday falls during coronavirus and the celebrations stay the same. None.

    When your 20 something neighbor says it is cool you have "old vintage" EM that's 3 years younger than yourself

    Quoted from DarthPaul:

    You know you are old when you remember falling asleep in front of the TV and being awakened by the National Anthem.

    Or the horrible test pattern tone

    Quoted from cottonm4:

    I'd like to give this one a go.

    That one's in my area, the sweetest place on earth. Hershey park has a bunch of cool coasters. Give a shout if you need a pinball fix after getting your fill of chocolate and rides
