Seeing these Olympic sports men/women born in the 90's, I was in my 30's 40's then!
That I had finished my A-Levels before my current favourite band were even born.
I actually remember the games in Tokyo in 1964!!! 
When I got a blank stare after telling a 19 year old girl that I was a big fan of All Saints when I was a kid 
I teach adults, most of them are mid 20s ish, sometimes older or younger but that is the average, I basically see myself as the same age (I am 34, totally in denial) and every now and again something like that will come up and I realise I am so much older, imagine not knowing who the spice girls were!
I'm currently in a pub in North London where a friend of mine in his 60s is playing with his reformed punk band. My ears are hurting already 
My husband just said to me 'do you remember when we were young and we used to laugh at the old Rockers and Teddy boys hanging on to their youthful image?'
It's hard to decide if it's better to be an old punk rocker or succumb to bland grey old age!

This has just made me feel old. I'm the same ageKnowing I’m technically old enough to have an adult child going to university this year (I’m 33 this year) I still feel 18 myself
Explaining how old rotary phones worked to my youngest (22) , and that you had to wait ages for movies to come out on video or tv. All shops were shut on a Sunday except corner shops .
I was going to say my birthday! This definitely makes me feel old!
And I now feel really old for not knowing at first what a rotary phone was....to me it was just a phone!!!

My nana had a cordless phone where she could just pick it up and go to a different room - I thought it was so futuristic!
I remember the ones with extra long cords so you could wander around the room LOL. We never had one in our home so whenever I saw one (mounted on the wall especially) it was the coolest thing to me, for some reason.
I still have a landline, I guess that makes me feel old but I've been glad to have it multiple times and I'm never letting it go
I find myself increasingly saying things like "back in the day" or "it was different when I was your age". Then I realise it makes me sound old.
I also have to stop myself from saying "you get taller every time I see you!" to my 13 year old nephew because I remember when people would say it to me as a kid and it used to annoy me.

I ALWAYS wanted one of these, they alawys seemed to have them in american tv shows didn't they? I always imagined I would have one as an adult but alas now I don't even have a landline phone or number
I think the first thing that made me feel old, a very long time ago (I wasn't at all old), was meeting young people you had met as children and them not remembering you as I always remember this situation happening to me as a childI find myself increasingly saying things like "back in the day" or "it was different when I was your age". Then I realise it makes me sound old.

Do you live in the US or Canada? I ask because I only remember seeing those phones when watching US television - the long cord and wall mounted. The first landline phone we had (in the UK) was some crappy thing that you couldn't walk 2 feet with away from the base that sat on a telephone stand/table with the phone books stored underneath.I remember the ones with extra long cords so you could wander around the room LOL.

How times have changed!
It is!@AnderbeauJohnson , is your name from 'The Golden Girls'?
Speaking of phones how about...
When you had to press the button 2/3 times to get to the right letter while texting?
Bonus round...
When you had to pay for dial-up internet on a per-minute basis
"I lost Anderbeau and her beau"
When apart from Mrs Hinch, you don't know any other Influencers/Bloggers/Flogers/Instagramers and you really don't give a fcuk - life is too short.
