Every movement that doesn't involve standing straight is followed by auld manny noises, and who's most tired, and why, is a common topic of conversation.

When you talk about famous or notorious events (that you feel were still recent) and the person listening says it was before they were born.

Just not quite understanding the reasoning behind your comment. I simply shared with the thread a story that happened to me. It’s not a competition to see who’s oldest, unless I managed to miss the part that stated an age limit?

I’ve actually found that ‘older’ people use text speak FAR more often on average than younger people.

Text speak really isn’t a thing anymore and is much more a thing of the past which is probably why it’s the older ones that still use it back from the MSN days.

Think it’s more from when text messages were only so many characters per text now that texts are unlimited in number you can get a full novel sent to you .
