A radio station plays a flashback that came out when you were in high school

Big band music sounds good

You dont know who justin beiber is

Johnny Depp is your heartthrob

You remember Guns and roses

Johnny Depp has gotten hotter as he's got older.
George is pretty good too - there are some pretty fine 40 year olds on the TV and the movie screens atm.

You know you are old when one of your FB friends makes a derogotory comment about Bret Michaels and how he's a desperate old man etc and you feel personally affronted for him....cos you still think that even tho he has dodgy hair extensions he's hot....
And you also know you are old when said friend probably only knows him from bad reality tv and she had a bunch of her friends saying who the hell is he? lol
But to be fair, I offended a bunch of them when I made some derogatory comment about justine bieber or whatever her name is, lol

And you know you are old when you are just as happy with a night in front of the fire than going out..in fact you probably prefer it, ha ha

... when you refer to 18 years olds as "kids" and no one bats an eyelid at you when you say it.

...when family members turn 21 and you remember what you were doing when you got the news they had been born.

my 29 year old husband knew who justin bieber was before me (22)

Johnny depp is definately getting better with age, you can keep George Clooney though

Steps, Billie, Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys and 5ive are all flashbacks for me to intermediate...

Highschool is Shaggy, TLC, Crazytown and Korn

You know you're old when your nephew says 'i found out my teacher is 24 today, that's sooooo old'

You know you're old when you've dialled a rotary phone and you can remember when phone numbers were only 5 numbers long....(our was 67886).

You know you're old when you see all the youngans out on the town in skimpy singlets and skirts and you're wrapped up in three layers of thermals, winter coat, beanie and scarf.

YOu know you're old when you start sounding like your own mother when listening to ZM and saying 'this music is horrible' and quickly turn to classic hits.

Sigh.......................I'm so old.

I had ALL the NKOTB videos

Ok I keep thinking of these......it's getting quite depressing now.......

You know you're old when Billy Ray Cyrus (who I idolised) now has a teenage daughter. And when you thought all the All Blacks were really old and now you're at least 5 years older than the average age of all the players.

OMG yes!

I clearly remember the day I was at the cricket and was watching 'the teenaged next big thing' Daniel Vettori getting ready to bat (and picking his nose!)... he's now the damn captain and there's talk of his retirement in the next year or so!!

I remember back in the day making mix tapes from my tape player, running to press the record button when my fave songs came lol

I love NKOTB, they were awesome!

Also, instead of turning the volume up loud when watching TV or a movie, I'm complaining to DH to turn it down because it hurts my ears.
