You know people think you’re old when…
We deeply think that being old or not is just a state of mind. It’s in your head. You might look old but you’re not as long as you don’t feel old. Unfortunately, sometimes people remember you how they see you when…
1. …they let you sit in the subway
2. …they don’t ask for your ID when you require the senior rate
3. …they ask you if you know who Jay-Z is
4. …they stop putting candle on your birthday cake
You’re passed the age, and anyway, it will cost too much and you’re not able to blow them anymore
5. …they ask you how you handle living without Internet and cellphones

Old phone…
6. …you have to explain them how to hit on in the “real world”
7. …they don’t beg you to dance during weddings anymore
8. …they give you a panicked look when they pronounce the word « Internet » because they think they’re already reaching your intellectual limits
9. …they send you letters rather than emails
10. …the first question they ask you is about your health condition
And remember, whatever happens… Old is cool !!
