I have wrinkles, I have grey hair, I have back problems, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, I can't remember anything, the world seems confusing and complicated to me now and I wish things were simpler (which is why I like Lemmy). I definitely don't get kids today or their music.

How am I so old?

I feel several comments here have already covered how you can change, but I want to give you something different.

It's ok to be "old", you don't need to understand the youth of today, or even like anything they do. Just don't yell at them, or look down on them for doing it.

Live and let live.

I don't see what's wrong with looking down on the youth really.. lol

Gotta keep that cycle going... /S

Plus, they do and say a lot of dumb shit.
