Shaking my fist at street racers, then realizing we did the same shite at that age.

Can't sit down or stand up without a grunt.

When you watch an old rerun of a sitcom that you liked as a kid that featured kids, and realize you are now older than the parents.

Seeing people still so excited about watching sports

Frank Gore Jr set the all time record for rushing yards in a bowl game this weekend.

Looking into a mirror.
Oh- and a lot of people are starting to mention it to me.

When people call me sir.
The other day I was returning my shopping cart and a young man said I’ll get that for you sir.

I just had my yearly eye visit and she asked if anything had changed and I said "it's getting more difficult for me to see things close up, like reading a menu in a restaurant...even with my glasses on or contacts in", and she said "it's starting".
I now own a pair of "readers".
ETA: I thought readers just amplified whatever you were looking at, making the blurry thing bigger, but they actually make them bigger and more clear.

I've had 20/20 vision my entire life but I'm afraid those days are coming to a close. I've only recently noticed when I'm trying to read a label or something in small print that I think to myself, I used to be able to read something like this with no difficulty.

Yup, it's starting for you too, baw. My optometrist also called it "long arm syndrome" because people have to keep holding things further and further away to read them.
Next time you're in Walgreen's grab a pair of the lowest amplification you can find (1.25x) and see what they do for you reading up close.

When I tell me doctor about my latest complaint and he just looks at me and says something like, "Yeah."

I used to have more time than money.
Now it’s the opposite.

When you are now the "greybeard" you made fun of in your youth.
