Symptoms of being over 25
SYMPTOMS OF BEING OVER 25
1. You leave clubs before the end to "beat the rush".
2. You get more excited about having a roast on a Sunday
than going clubbing.
3. You stop dreaming of becoming a professional
footballer and start dreaming of having a son who might
instead.
4. Before throwing the local paper away, you look through
the property section.
5. All of a sudden, Tony Blair is not 46, he's only 46.
6. Before going out anywhere, you ask what the parking is
like.
7. Rather than throw a knackered pair of trainers out,
you keep them because they'll be all right for the garden.
8. You buy your first ever T-shirt without anything
written on it.
9. Instead of laughing at the innovations catalogue that
falls out of the newspaper, you suddenly see both the
benefit and money saving properties of a plastic winter
cover for your garden bench and an electronic mole repellent
for the lawn. Not to mention the plastic man for the car to
deter would-be thieves.
10. You start to worry about your parents' health.
11. Sure, you have more disposable income, but everything
you want to buy costs between 200 and 500 quid.
12. You don't get funny looks when you buy a Disney video
or a Wallace and Gromit bubble bath, as the sales assistant
assumes they are for your child.
13. Pop music all starts to sound crap.
14. You opt for Pizza Express over Pizza Hut because they
don't have any pictures on the menus and anyway, they do a
really nice half-bottle of house white.
15. You always have enough milk in.
16. To compensate for the fact that you have little desire
to go clubbing, you instead frequent really loud tapas
restaurants and franchise pubs with wacky names in the
mistaken belief that you have not turned into your parents.
17. While flicking through the TV channels, you happen upon
C4's Time Team with Tony Robinson. You get drawn in.
18. The benefits of a pension scheme become clear.
19. You go out of your way to pick up a colour chart from
B& Q.
20. You wish you had a shed.
21. You have a shed.
22. You actually find yourself saying "They don't make 'em
like that anymore" and "I remember when there were only 3 TV
channels" and "Of course, in my day...."
23. Radio 2 play more songs you know than Radio 1 - and
Terry Wogan has some really interesting guests on.
24. Instead of tutting at old people who take ages to get
off the bus, you tut at schoolchildren whose diction is
poor.
25. When sitting outside a pub you become envious of their
hanging baskets.(So true!)
26. You make an effort to be in and out of the curry house
by 11.
27. You find yourself saying "is it cold in here or is it
just me?"
