"The 10 signs of aging".....What are they??

[jimslip]

I was sitting watching TV, when I nearly had a heart attack! I just saw the latest L'Oreal ad marketing a cream that "Combats the 10 signs of aging"..........errm hang on, I thought there were, "7 signs of aging". Where the fuck did the other 3 signs of aging come from???

Does anyone know exactly what are now the "10 signs of aging?" in order of importance please!

Here's four to be getting on with Jim.


When you go up the stairs, then, as you get to the top you completely forget why you went up in the first place.

Your balls get closer to your knees with every decade.

Prolonged use of slippers.

It appears that more hair grows out of your nose and ears, than the top of your head.

Yup, all perfect signs of ageing, you could add:

5/ Temptation to buy the Daily Mail
6/ Losing all fashion sense

Posting messages about ageing on the internet.
Talking about the good old days.
Thinking that policeman/women look young.
Having to use viagra.
Getting up in the night for a pee even when you havnt been drinking.
Having to magnify everything.
Talking about the weather.
Joining age concern.
Becoming carefull with your money because you know you cant take it with you but dont want to die broke.
Not worrying if an old gilf smells of piss before you shagg her.

Well there is ten to start with Jim are you feeling your age !wink!

Hi Jim
I hope you are well ? you got me thinking there...

actually reading the 'comments' section in the Telegraph or Guardian and getting angry in the process

smiling to yourself when a girl says to you 'yeah, my dad used to like Thin Lizzy too"

catching yourself reading the 'recommended daily allowance' bumpf on bottles of vitamins

actually being able to tell the difference between different brands of Tea with one sip

trying to convince my 4 year old daughter that HR Puffnstuff is better than Ben 10
just so I have an excuse to watch the DVD again.

1.When you remember standing in the queue on that warm sunny day outside Dalston cinema to see Star Wars and its supporting programme back in 1977

2.When you can remember making shedloads of cash every week from selling porn

3. When you can remember getting that knock on the door and 10 officers outside with one saying they have a warrant for your arrest for selling porn and them swarming in like Agent fucking Smith out of The Matrix

3. When you cant remember what it was you are supposed to be posting about on the BGAFD and going way off topic...

...Sorry, what was the question again?

Saying to Lara in Sainsburys this morning, "Ooh why don't we gets a box of those "Yum, yum" donut fingers, they'll go down a treat with a nice cuppa!"

When you sound like your dad!

I was doing an 'at home' shoot with a model, we decided to break for a pub lunch, she put on a tight t shirt and short shorts, stuff that i'd describe as sleepwear, and I was astonished to hear myself saying, in a disapproving dad tone, "You're not going out dressed like that"

I had officially become old.

Just been given a book about my home town which is full of 'then and now' photos - I recognise all the 'thens' and none of the 'nows'
