Midcentury modern. I like that idea now more than I did when it actually was midcentury modern.

Travel said...

Who would have imagined we would have lived this long, and how did it happen so fast.

I don't get the "How I feel when I talk about the 1970's" one. --Jim

Bob said...

I will now be referring to myself as Midcentury Modern.
It has a nice ring to it, though Gray Pride ...

Mistress Maddie said...

Omg!!!!! The 1979 vs 2023 chart!!!! Had me howling!!!!!!!!!!

Boud said...

You young kids in your 60s and70s talking about being old! Get off my lawn!

Frank said...

Humor aside, there are days when it is depressing when the things you enjoyed most become a source of agony (gardening, hiking, even cooking). I really don't want to take up knitting.

Moving with Mitchell said...

Mid-century modern!

Mike said...

All of these are just too damn true!!! Another one about the floor. Never go down on the floor without a plan to get back up.

Magaly Guerrero said...

I wish I couldn't relate, but... at least the company is awesome!

Busy Bee Suz said...

These are so cute. Who doesn't appreciate a nice handrail?

Leanna said...

It's sad that my mind still feels like I'm 16 and wants to do stuff but my body says you wish and makes loud creaking crackling noises when I get up from a couch. I love that Gray Pride.

bobbie said...

Joanne Noragon said...

Wait--there are only 45 years between those two lists.

peppylady (Dora) said...

I don't mind the term of senior but the word old. I relate to old cranky people.
Coffee is on.

DB Stewart said...

A little too relatable. Sigh, haha.

River said...

Love the t-shirt and the comparison list.

'Born in the 1900's'... yep, me and Jessica Fletcher!
These were funny and all too appropriate, lol.
Cheers,

Linda said...

GRUNTING NOISES! Going to have to show Boy Scout that one. Never heard anyone make such noise simply getting off a sofa.

You know I can relate - I used to regard Snap, Krackle and Pop as characters but now they are my joints.

Yes I can relate. Thanks for sharing.

Glad there still is (mostly) a funny side!

Those were all pretty freaking good!

The Blog Fodder said...

If I drop something on the floor, I have to seriously think about whether I need it or not. The hand rail one is sure me.
