You Know You Are Old When

Also, you may want to consider freshness, and not buy too far in advance.

and consider the runaway beer truck that might get you later today. Check for a return policy so your family can get the money back.
Because lets be realistic/sarcastic, who needs 10,000+ of whatever pill?

You do realize that you don't need to order enough to last the rest of your life all at once...

I'm the guy that did a big stock up on toilet paper, coincidentally just as Covid started, just ran out last year. Bought 50lbs of oatmeal a month later, ran out last year. If it don't go bad and I can get it on sale I stock up. Stocked up on wives 41 years ago. Seem like she will last another 30 years.
And she also goes through two Areds 2 a day.

"I'm so old, I don't even buy eggs more than a half-dozen at a time, anymore." - my FIL, explaining he might not be around long enough to use a full dozen.

So you are the one. Some of my trees are just growing their leaves back now, took a few years to recover.

Looking forward to the next 5 pages of every regular member posting their waist size.

Wait until we talk about old man's flat butt and needing suspenders because belts have nothing to hold onto.

The bugs in old oatmeal take some of the nutrition from the oatmeal but the protein from the bugs makes it up.

when you don't need to work anymore. Also you have enough time to watch tv. gamechanger has really lived up to its name when it comes to youth sports. I started using it to keep up with my nephew’s baseball games, and it completely changed how we stay connected to the action. Even if I can’t be there in person, I can follow live stats, updates, and even replays. It’s super helpful for parents, coaches, and anyone who wants to stay involved without being in the stands every game.

when you don't need to work anymore

When will that happen! Every day my wife & I are working and it seems more work than ever after retirement!!!
This place is constant work, then 98 yo Mom's place is more work and usually step one is finding then repairing the tools or finding what's needed to fix what's broken.
My garage first aid kit I have to keep getting larger boxes and probably the few that contains an eye patch. The house medicine cabinet puts CVS to shame and if salve doesn't work it's on to linament and finally ointment. At least the 3"×4" bandages work...for now!
