We're all grown up (or some of us), and we're not getting any younger, either. What are some things that make you feel old?
The O.J. Simpson case
When i look back at video games
When i see an one of my favorite cartoons from back in the day
When i think about the fact that im knee-deep into college
When i look at my little brother...and see that he's not so "little" anymore (damn that lil boy done got big)
I'm into politics, I read the newspaper
When marriage isn't that far away anymore
When I noticed the fact that I've calmed down a lot since freshman year
I've got hair all over my face now (I look SO young in my avatar pic)
When i can drink around my dad
When marriage doesn't seem so unrealistic anymore
My baby brother has more facial hair than I do (wait, that's supposed to make me feel a little younger), and he's a senior in high school
The fact that I've been a uncle for 2.5 years
Seeing the Super Mario Bros. Super Show on Yahooligans
This is how I know i'm old as hell.... when you:
:arrow: remember playing the tennis game on atari (the one where u slid the bar up and down againt each other)
:arrow: remember when the 1st nintendo can out (the one u had to blow into the games and she-it)
:arrow: knowing all the lyrics to ll cool j's song "i'm bad" from when it first came out
:arrow: don't know not a single show on nicklelodeon and disney, but remember cousin skeeter, my brother and me, keenan and kel, the old all that, the amanda show, etc.
:arrow: when u here your neices and nephwes singing songs like "my neck, my back" and "get low" and remember when you used to sing "doin the ****" and "wrecks n effect"
**singing** "check babay check baby one two three four, check baby check baby one two three, check baby check baby one two, check baby check baby one"
My lil cousin is now playin high school football.... I remember when that was me
My lil cousin got a stash of condoms.... he only 14 dammit
Lookin at old **** pictured of me and my lil cousin
:arrow: My little sister will be 13 in November
:arrow: All of little cousins growing up.
:arrow: Thinking of plans after college
:arrow: I just turned 19.
:arrow: I looked at some of the older members in my family and they are older than I thought they were.
When I showed my 5-year-old nephew a picture of the old Michael Jackson on the cover of "Off the Wall" he didn't even believe that was him...****. It's a damn shame, some people will probably never know that MJ used to be black.
When I say things like "Back in High School..." or "when I was a teenager"
