But when you were younger, this felt like all the freedom you needed.

Have had bifocals forever to read fine print; that's including cataract lenses that I've had for many years. The lenses help a lot but I still need bifocals for tiny things.

...when you go into an antique store and they won't let you leave.*

...when you go on a dating site called Carbon Dating*

*I heard these on a Facebook Reel today. I'd give credit to the elderly comedian but I did not catch his name. His delivery is what made it funny.

Saw it too. His name is Andy Huggins. A pretty funny "sit down" comedian.
He's got a good 10 minute you tube video by "don't tell comedy". Here's a short one.

I had lunch yesterday with my former boss, who retired a few years before I did. Like all old farts, we mostly talked about our various health issues.

I used to make fun of my father. I'd walk in his house and he'd be on the phone catching up with one of his buddies and they would laugh about their new friends - Bruce-Itis, Arthur-Itis - there were a few more but I'm old so I don't remember their names.
