You are watching daytime TV and all the adverts are about cremation services.

We don't get adverts on TV about cremation services around here, nor cremation nor burial.

Also it's friday night, you are home alone, "none" (atm at least) seems to be around the internet and you then open a 500 ml tin of Drachenturm 8.6% black extra strong beer and continue to watch MLP videos ...

Also, you buy the new Asterix at the local tobacconist's.
You move over to the Café next by.
Quite some people sit there, reading the new Asterix.
All of them male, grey haired.

When you felt "old" first getting into the whole MLP thing... 12 years ago....

When those "up drinking until 4am" weekend sessions are no longer shrugged off but leave you tired for the rest of the week

When a work colleague complains that they're getting old... and they're only 30.

When you mention to them the job you had back in 1997... and they tell you that they were only 4 years old.

My problem is that even if I am in my mid fifties I do not look my age. Those Nordic youth genes..

Ah, the Norwich youth. The driving force behind so much UK culture.

Norwich ... Noridge ... Knoridge. So many students to such a simple town.

Most of the new music annoys you.

When you talk about this new AC/DC singer, whose name you can't remember.

Oh, and too many details of Fortran 77 syntax.

Beg your pardon, that's FORTRAN 77, of course.
