I’ve got a whisker on my chin. It’s like an old friend now, I pluck it out but it cheerily grows back. Thank God I can at least see it and use tweezers!
Omg I plucked mine out only yesterday! I'm only 25! Can't believe it!

One I'm noticing more and more nowadays is when new songs sample older songs and I can remember when the sampled song was first released 😩

Any time I'm researching trips we're planning and I get that leap of excitement at the discount for attractions for EU citizens under 25. Then I remember my actual age! I remember using it in Paris and Rome and that doesn't feel like long ago.

Only one? I could grow a full beard! And I've had blood tests for hormonal imbalances and I'm fine. :rolleyes:

What's making me feel old at the moment is seeing teenagers wearing clothes that I wore as a teenager. It feels like I'm slipped into an alternate dimension, it's truly bizarre.

I too could grow a full beard. I was fine until I went on the pill.

When I realise people born in 2000 are now 21. It feels like yesterday for me even though I was a child.

When one of the children you work with run across a row of stools and you shout ‘ stop that it’s not the Krypton Factor’ and they just have that ‘ da fucks that ??’ Look on their face

Omg whatever you do, do NOT go on Vinted or Depop and look for vintage. It’s all Tammy Girl, Bay and Miss Selfridge from the early 00s! That’s not vintage surely?!

The trainee at work today referred to 1990 as being “well old” 🤦🏻‍♀️

Reading this as I had my 1st child in 2020 + I’m only 41 myself yet my brain says I’m still in my 20yrs but my body says different 🤦‍♀️😂

We have to sign customers up for our loyalty program, which includes their birthdate as they get a discount voucher. Nothing like seeing a cute guy, then realising I could be his mother 😳 I'm 41, so not completely ancient, but my brain can't cope with adults existing after the late 90s 😂

Also, anything to do with explaining a pre internet world eg my childhood, to my 11yr old. She's got a decent grasp of history, but that bit just blows her mind!
