As you get older, you start having different things happen to you DON'T want happening, but they are just an inevitable fact of life. And I hate some of the things that happen to me as I get older.

Like for example...

As I get older I could be sitting in a chair or a seat and then all of a sudden, I get a stabbing pain in my legs from out of NOWHERE and it causes me to double up in pain. And I did nothing to cause it. I didn't stretch, move my leg, jerk it suddenly to cause me to pull a muscle in my leg, nothing. It's like a cramp, but worse and it's a shooting pain that goes right up my spine into my head and causes me to just go nuts.

As you get older, what are some of the things you've realized that you don't like or hate about getting older? A specific pain? Not enough energy? Hair growing in places you don't want it to grow?

Post your pet peeve about getting older here!

As an ex-motorcycle racer I deal with the pain of broken bones. I call it 100 steps, as in the first 100 steps of the day are the most painful. I know the mystery pains where something hurts for no reason too. Although it is amazing how a beer or three can make you feel!

As I was 25 I could drink 16x 0,5 liters of european beer in a night. Then I was drunk.

Today I can drink 3x 0,5 liters of beer and Im drunk.

At 1 month shy of 46 the thing I find sad is that, even from a few years ago... I cannot stay up late like I used to... LOL... sad when not too long ago the night didn't start until 9:30 pm and didn't end until well into the next morning...

now...

9:30pm hits and my old head is looking for my pillows... on a plus side my insurance rates are much better...

Yep....after decades of playing hockey and baseball when I get up in the morning it feels like the opening scene of North Dallas Forty, LOL.
But the pain does tell you one good thing....you're still alive. (I find a little Jack works better than beer )

I find now that I'm over 40, I can never trust a fart anymore. It might feel like a fart...but it might not be.

I used to be able to eat anything and had a cast iron stomach. Spicy mexican, indian food, whatever...not anymore. And I used to be able to down tons of food and not gain a pound. Now, I'm lucky if I can handle eating a tiny cheeseburger before getting full.

I don't mind getting older, life keeps getting better, and the girls stay the same age! 22-28 hehe.

And, at 34, I'm in the best shape of my life!

Try saying this when your 42. And those young girls look at you like you're a dirty old man and won't even give you the time of day. And when your 42, you won't be in the best shape of your life. And the aches and pains start creeping in. Your metabolism slows down. You start growing hair in places that you didn't realize could grow and it grows like weeds so you have to start shaving the edges of your ears or get a weedwacker to trim those nose hairs that grow like jungle vines.

34? You're still a baby.
