The time period from 1918 to 1970 is the same time length as from 1970 to 2022.

The time period from 1918 to 1970 is the same time length as from 1970 to 2022.

But all the people in 1970 that were born around 1918 looked old. 52 is like the new 30.

 

[Yldboyz]

I never looked at it that way.

 

[coolchange]

They went from the Wright bros to the moon. We went from the moon to tiktok.

(2022-1970)=(1970-1918)

 

[mash on it]

I lost my pop in '97, he was 58.
My brother turned 58 on Monday.
I'm 52 this year.
Nobody is promised tomorrow.

If you think that’s bad, the same time frame from the time I was born to today’s date would equal a previous equivalent time that starts at 1890.

AND, this morning I’m out laying 16x16 pavers.

 

[oldboatsrule]

Crap, I was just getting used to the fact that I am older than the freaking superbowl.

 

[nameisbond]

My older brother was born in 70 (he's two years older). He doesn't look that old. Neither do I, can pass for 35. Good genes I guess.

 

[monkeyswrench]

My wife showed me a FB meme...it said "what I think a 25 year truck is", and a pic of a 60's beater. The, what an actual 25 year old truck is, 1997 F150

 

[Rajobigguy]

Well, time marches on and takes it’s toll on all of us. The wife says that I used to have the body of a Greek god and now I just look like a god damn Greek.

At least she isn’t saying that I look old.

 

[rrrr]

I don't "feel" old, I AM old.

 

[monkeyswrench]

I don't "feel" old, I AM old.

Chris LeDoux song,
"It Ain't The Years, It's The Miles"

I'm 44, half dozen spinal surgeries and a bunch of broken and misaligned parts. Most days I feel 25, and can keep up just fine...
The days after though, well those are the days I do feel old.

Those Greek stone statues are old as the hills. Longevity run in your veins

 

[Roosky01]

We (2022) are as far away from the year Top Gun came out (1986) as 1950 is....

Well shit, I was born in 1970

 

[spectras only]

I was born when, Kalashnikov rifle invented, Cold War started and First documented sightings of "flying saucers"

Also: First airplane to break the speed of sound

• Thor Heyerdahl sails from Peru to Polynesia on a raft to prove theory of human migration
• Transistor invented at Bell Laboratories
• Holography invented

You ARE old.

 

[Paradox]

Dang. That would be 1908 to 1970 and 1960 to 2022 for me.

The model T was introduced in 1908..

Dont forget the chopping off your dick fad and the men can get pregnant insanity.

No shit...
When old timers talk about the "good ol' days", they aren't lying.

 

[rivermobster]

This video kinna sucks, but the lyrics to this song are awesome. It's about getting old.

One of my favorite tunes...

My orthopedic surgeries have hit everything from ankles to knees to hips to shoulders to elbows to wrists, and most recently, cervical spine.

The good news is that my pain meds fill for another month tomorrow. Thank God for fentanyl.

 

[bocco]

I'm much to young to feel this damn old.

 

[Willie B]

… At 76 do I get a prize….from you young whippersnappers???…

You da man, Willie.

You also have the best 1960s drag racing stories. I could sit on your porch for hours listening to them.

 

[badgas]

I feel really young at 53



I do remember poeple smoking on planes, not wearing helmets in Cali and life without cell phones.

I'll be 50 in September. I smoked on planes. In Canada they banned smoking on flights less then 2hours in 1988. The year I turned 16. Full on smoking ban shortly after.

The math is just a reminder of how we were not part of the "greatest generation".

They survived the depression, fought in WW2, lived without credit cards or welfare.

Now woke is a thing and free shit drives our population growth.

I was born too late.

I remember when GM’s motto was “The Mark Of Excellence”, my how the times have changed.

See the USA in your Chevrolet

Put a Dodge in your garage

Lincoln Mercury - The sign of the cat. (Farrah Fawcett was the model walking the cougar in those commercials)

Cadillac - Standard of the world.

Enco (now Exxon) - Put a tiger in your tank.
