Just go for the distinguished old moneyed look. Loafers without socks and drape on a cardigan while you read in a chair with your glasses. Maybe someone will want to ride on your yacht.

About a year ago, I noticed that I had to take my glasses off, or look underneath my lenses, if I wanted to read anything up close. Feels bad, man. I don't think my trendy little hipster frames could handle bifocals.

As an old who has been using reading glasses for years, my advice is to get several pairs because they are never handy when you need them. Dollar Store, Costco, etc.

And, you kids get offa my lawn!

Looked at the University at Buffalo basketball roster and realized every player on the team was born while I attended college, except the Freshman, who were born a year later. Next year's freshman will be born in 2000. Fuck!

I look exactly like my best female friend with that Snapchat filter everyone is using right now. It's kinda funny and kinda weird.

Edit.

This doesn't make me feel old or anything. I forgot that there is a different random thoughts thread

And, now I feel old because Alzheimer's.

Same, but I was pacing myself on the old-people-feeling. I do know what it is, but I've never used it.

I can't keep up with Fortnite. First video game where I legitimately can't even play it badly, just can't keep up with the building part of it. (for anyone who's played starcraft multiplayer competitively...that doesn't count.)

I feel that way about a lot of games. I don't mind being challenged, but I'd rather not have it piss me the fuck off or just be something that my old ass fingers can't do fast enough.

ETA: They need to port shit so we can play it on a Sega controller, too many fucking buttons and my brain has trouble figuring out which bumper/trigger combination does some stupid action that's integral to the game.
