When you start saying things your parents used to say that made you nuts! ie: "Back in my day..."
"That's not music, that's just noise!"
"I can't believe that girl would leave the house looking like that!"
Side note: When did music that drove your parents nuts become tolerable to them? Like, when I was younger, Alice Cooper was scary as hell, now the music sounds like pop music! Same with Kiss (no offense conor, it's true). Just the other day, I stopped by my dad's house (he is 75) only to find him in the garage, waxing his car whilst Pink Floyd's "Have a Cigar" was cranked up to 11 on his stereo. He had to turn it down to talk to me. Then, two days later, my mom (who is 71) tells me she wants Rod Stewart records for Christmas. And not the "songbook" series either... I feel like I'm in Bizzaro world!

I remember when I was little waking up, padding to the bathroom and seeing the pink toothpool and blue toothpool. Grandma and Grandpa had a safe trip!Eskarpin wrote:When you place every night in a glass the denture
