Just sort of thinking of this just now, but there are people out there who were born, graduated high school and are now a few years into collage that never went without The Simpsons being on the air with new episodes.
There's something frighting about that for some reason.

A sporting draft... they are now making more money than I probably can dream of and they are near my age or younger.

When people on this forum refer to being kids during the Attitude Era. I was in my early 20's at the time!

Dunno, I've only just turned 19. I suppose when little kids are always asking me to buy drink or fags for them.

When I talk to people that have never played the NES, and whose first game system was the Playstation or N64.

Music I listened to growing up is now considered "Oldies".
My son is going to be 6.
My little cousins that I used to beat up on when we were kids.. are in their 20's and can kick my ass.
I was alive during the Vietnam War.
I've been out of high school for nearly 20 years.
I have seen, owned and operated an 8 Track player.
A little girl I used to babysit when she was 3 just turned 18.
Thank you.. I'm very depressed right now

I'm 25 and felt old for the first time this year, really when I saw the tobacco calenders that you must be "born on this date in 1990".
Only other thing was when my nephews were born in '02 and '04, as my brother's only a year older than I am.
Although, I didn't feel as old when my oldest nephew started elementary school and his Kindergarten teacher was my second grade teacher.

I have a teenager. Nothing is more sure-fired to make you feel old than that.

Listening to an old song or band you really listened to when you were younger lots or loved for the first time in months or years, seeing a movie you remember seeing in theatres on TV, how I just turned 18 recently, the fact I'm in college, looking back at time periods of wrestling, some people were still in town or alive, anything makes me feel old...

That's probably the biggest one for me. I remember flipping on VH1 Classic one day and seeing..."I Wanna Sex You Up" by Color Me Badd! It was then followed by Kriss Kross's "Jump." Star 100.7 (a radio station in my town) has expanded its "Flashback Friday" to include hits from the 90s, and 3WS (local oldies station) has added a lot of 80s hits.
Knowing that kids today have no idea about the Golden Age of Nickelodeon, an Elmo-free Sesame Street, the original TMNT craze, or Disney outside of Hannah Montana and High School Musical.
When I read about baseball players in their late teens and early 20s getting called up to the majors.

The Undertaker. Dude was WWF champion when I had an age comprisng of a single digit. Won title at this year's Wrestlemania.
Easily recalling a time when Optimus Prime didn't have flames.

Nothing really. I'm 24 so I think I'm just the right age...not too young, not too old.

I graduated high school in 2001, and looking back now, already about half the teachers there from when I went to high school are gone or retired.
-working at a retail place that employs minors, and seeing that 15/16 year olds were born in 1992-93
-when I first started collecting baseball cards in the early 90's, realizing that about 95% of the players have long since retired. and speaking of which, one of my favorite baseball memories ever was Jim Abbott's no-hitter in 1993, and today Abbott is kind of a forgotten player
-also, the Summer of 1998 (Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa breaking Roger Maris' single season HR record) was 10 years ago
-kinda off-topic, but whoever said the golden age of Nickelodeon= Ren and Stimpy RULED!!!

Kids in the neighborhood that play, and I never even spoke to people I've known since elementary and high school.

Feeling dirty for checking out a 19 or 20 year old's rack at the store/on the street.

without a doubt, it's the younger siblings of a friend of mine. i have always been very close to them both, and now the oldest is almost old enough to drink, and the youngest is going to get her license on wednesday........HE WAS 12 WHEN I MET HIM, AND SHE WAS 7!
