What Makes You Feel Old?

[emm]

When I see teenagers in their school uniforms. I'm only 32

I find I cannot judge young people's ages at all anymore, people who are 13/14 in my view either look like they are around 7 as they are so small or they are taller than me and could pass for 20s now it finally makes sense being ID'd all the time when I was younger

My first email address was a string of numbers. I also remember being shown the internet at university aged about 18 and thinking "kinda cool but it'll never take off". Fashion today looks terrible to me. It's like the worst and most dull 80s stuff my parents wore. I don't get it.

Don't get me started the low rise jeans, the 80s flared pants and the crop tops. Also, the teenagers all dress the same these days. I have a younger brother and he is very influenced by tik tok. However his style is absolutely appalling. I don't get the 2000s revival it was a terrible era for fashion.

Yes I struggle too. It takes me 10 mins to start to get brain into gear these days after waking

And about 3 hours to get the body in gear!

I overheard two teenage girls - probably 16/17 - who were dressed molly mae style, say "why do old people always steal our styles'. They were eyeballing a girl that had walked by who was dressed similar to them but looked like she was in her mid to late twenties

Having to write everything down or else I forget!

In my 20's I never had to keep a diary. I remembered everything. Appointments, birthdays etc etc

No I usually forget to take the shopping list I've made to remember what I need

I just saw a clothing brand say that they had 'retro style clothes'... which included the 'back to 2000' range.



Technically retro means anything 20-39 years old but I'm not okay with that.
