“When I was a kid, my neighbor had a car that you pushed buttons to shift gears.”

“You know you're old when

the car you sat in as a child with your parents is now a historical vechile.

“You actually know what a party line is? WOW.”

“..everything hurts...

“Oh yes, the variety shows.... the Donnie & Marie incest jokes....   It was a special time.”

“The Ed Sullivan show on black and white t.v. Elvis' first appearance on television (but only from the waist up). Several years later....the Beatles.”

Let me tell yah the whole road knew your business.Sheesh trying to remember your ring tone was bad enough,but the worst part was hearing all the breathing,you`d say ok you can hang up now and hear three to 4 phones hangup bu of course there`d always be a clinger on waiting for juicy news to tell the neighbours about.LOL”

“Paddles, mine was a long and 2 shorts.”

“I'm not old, just further along than most....”

“I have no idea what any of you people are talking about.”

“That's like a line from the "Regis and What's-her-ass" parody on Saturday Night Live.”

“you realize that you no longer buy green bananas.”

“Why would you buy green bananas, other than to fry them?”

“I get it NS. You are saying that you might not have time for them to ripen”

“..... you remember when that joke was new.     < WINK >”

“treebeast666 - A bunch of yellow bananas will overripen too fast for me. A bunch with a mixture will give me something to eat for several days as the green ones ripen.

Plantains are the type that are usually fried or baked.

Hyway to Hell - Correct.

“That was old when Reagan said it and I'm old for remembering:)”

“He may have stolen it from Jack Benny.

But at Wikipædia, Benny is quoted thusly, "When you take a joke away from Milton Berle, it's not stealing, it's repossessing."


So there you go.

“You know you're old when your wifes says, "OMG your back hair is getting gray!".”

“... you think these jokes are funny.”

“I heard a story once that Jack Benny's hometown of Waukegan Illinois named a junior high after him.  They had a dedication;  he flew out and planted a tree.

Sometime later the tree expired.  Bob Hope learned of this and is rumored to have pondered aloud:

"How can a tree live in Waukegan when the sap is in Hollywood?"”
