You know you're getting old when...

...all the current most popular celebrities on TV and in Music are now younger than you are. Seriously, I remember when all the hit actors and singers were older than me, now they've fallen out of the spotlight and are replaced by all the new ones that are younger than me.

...when you use to use a VCR to tape episodes off TV because there was no way to rewatch them later.

Its amazing how with online streaming media its all but rendered TV obsolete. I now watch shows more on the computer than on the TV when they air.

Ha. Can't wait for the 50th Anniversary, where we throw all 147 incarnations of the Turtles on one holographic 48fps screen in our micro infotainment centers.

...when you were actually alive when the NES was the current gaming console.

And yes, as sad as that sounds, most "teens" these days started in the Playstation 1 and N64 generation. I feel sorry for the kids who missed the whole 8 bit and 16-bit era.

The music you listened to when you were a child is now on the oldies radio station.

Side note: the search tag for this topic popped a blood vessel in my eye.
