My wife & I were out to dinner when the server asked if we wanted coffee, decaf or regular. I said; "High test" and got a blank stare in return. This young woman had never heard that term applied to coffee and I felt very old, very quickly.

You know you are getting old when buy a 6 pack, flash your ID and the cashier says, "Sorry but we don't have a senior citizen's discount."

You think it's believable that a 90 year old man could be a drug mule.
I had a doctors appointment and I asked the receptionist what the street address was. She said it was on Costello street. I asked, "like Abbott and Costello?" She replied, "who?"

You Know Your Getting Old When....
...your childhood toys are in antique stores
...you remember when the U.S. had less than 50 states
...you clean a drawer in your desk and find the gas rationing cards that you did not use
...retired people call you sir.
...you did not remember the last time anyone checked if you were old enough for anything including Medicare and Social Security
...you remember most John Wayne movies from when you saw them in their theatric release
...everyone lets you sleep in because they figure that, at your age, you need the rest.
...you truly believe that revolvers are better carry guns than the double stack semi automatic firearms.
...you see a strange, beautiful young woman and the first thing that you think about is the high maintenance and extra drama that her husband/boyfriend "must" endure.

"Who's on First"? What? "What's on Second."
The temptation would be too great for me.
I knew I was getting old when the girls in Playboy magazine were younger than I was.
If I see one now I feel really guilty.
The manual for the radio in my new truck is 3 times the size of the whole owners manual in my first new car.
When I realize that since 1993, I have been older than the President.
When you have to ask what to do on a trip to Vegas.
I was driving along with my granddaughter beside me. Turned on the
radio. It was in December. Bing Crosby was singing White Christmas.
I said "that's Bing Crosby". Granddaughter says "who is he?"

You know your getting old, when every time you accompany someone to a doctors appointment, the staff assumes your the patient.

Sometimes when someone says "I don't know" I shout out "Third Base!". Most people don't get it, even those that know A&C."Who's on First"? What? "What's on Second."

When you get caught checking out a young woman and your wife says "she's younger than your daughter."
OP
Some of these are hilarious.
When you stop listening to the Stones, and start passing them.
