    When I noticed that young boys never bothered to look at me in the eyes anymore.

    sorry to hear that dollyfizz, hope things get better for you soon.

    I prefer to think of myself as "mature" like a fine wine rather than old ;)

    My son is 1 1/2, so when the TV is on which is not all too often, I usually have it on PBS. But sometimes I will have on Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network. And between those two networks, I must have heard over 50 farts on their shows, or references to farts. Now I'm no prude, still to this day I think that a well placed fart can be incredibly funny. Benjamin Franklin even wrote a piece of fart humor while living in France, in an essay he wrote.

    When I was a kid growing up in the 90's we had plenty of shows that had farts in them, but it wasn't thrown around so much, especially the ones aimed at smaller children. My point is with farts being thrown around loosely, when kids grow up they won't know the importance of a well placed fart.

    And that's how I know I'm getting old, seeing a future of adults running around farting indiscriminately bothers me.

    I turned 24 last week, it made me feel pretty old. Especially as I was working on that day. At the District Council. I'm going to be turning grey any day now.

    When I was in a pub on my birthday and I was the same age as the mothers of two of the bar staff.

    Even when my girl friend interrupted my story to tell me she hadn't been born yet, I didn't feel old. Just experienced.
