What is a clear sign of you getting older?
 
Being annoyed by kids out on the road would be one.

Wanting the kids on public transport to shut up and stop shouting too ?
 
Everything hurts, I'm losing my hair and most things I love and know are now relics of the past :(
 
Media (songs, movies, games) you grew up with start being referred to as "classics".
 
When someone says that was about 20 years ago and automatically assuming they meant the 80s but no they mean the year 2000ish.

Also when I start feeling drowsy at 8pm. lol
 
When the clear woods to build something and you can say "I remember when this was all trees"

Seriously, their noise can be very annoying and frustrating to deal with. It's why when I can't deal with it anymore, I would block my ears with my headphones. Sometimes I wonder if I can live with kids.
 
For me a clear sign of me getting older would be losing interest in things I used to do, aching more, being annoyed by things that wouldn't have normally annoyed me, and also being more annoyed than I ever used to be with kids being loud and annoying on public transport or even in stores. Not so much younger kids that may be upset about something but kids that are clearly there to cause problems.

It's losing my cool all the time that's frustrating most of the time. I can't stress the constant back ache. Men, getting old really sucks.
 
For me it's not having the same amount of energy to do things that I used to have. I have a semi-schedule for cleaning my house, but I used to do it all in one day and now I spread it out. I just can't do the same amount of work.
 
I am a senior and yes I am not what I used to be when I was younger I am not much into trendy clothing, hardly attend parties and prefer to stay at home.

I think a lot of us start preferring to do that as we get older!! Those memes that question going out at 9PM I can totally relate to.
 
I am a party organizer. I like organizing but not attending parties organized by others (lol)

I love organizing things too and then can't wait for the actual event to be over with LOL We have that in common!
 
For me, when I have blurred vision, it is a sign of aging. I felt bad when I started to wear a pair of eyeglasses.
