I get to join this thread in a few months :(

But you've been a grumpy old man for ages. :zoinks:

My age is approximately 1.5 times forty years, but I have never been a "consistently"  grumpy old cuss.

I have my dark days, but I am generally a very happy person and will make a joke instead of an insult where possible.
I am brave.

 :thumbup:

I'm more easily pleased than when I was young.  I'm happy on any day that I'm warm and my knees don't hurt.
Ever got that feeling that you're trying to teach a dog a card trick?

This is true, but I soon get to graduate from honorary status.

  That means you can tell whippersnappers to get off your lawn!  :odeon:


  And you can sit around complaining about how much better everything was back in your day!   :oldman:

Something that everyone on I2 can say is, "Last century I..........."
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

My brain is both uninhibited and uninhabited.

Well in about 84 years we can.

  My 40s have been a good decade.  When I was 40, I was officially dx'd as being on the spectrum,
  and I received my first computer (secondhand) and found teh intarwebz.  40 was a good year.  8)

not sure it it's age related, but my teeth are starting to hurt if I eat a sugary item.

  How about when you eat or drink something cold or hot?  Mine are sensitive too.  :tard:
