Are you taking your Sanatogen regularly? Do you constantly get offers for cheap car insurance because of your age? Do you get catalogues sent to you where all the clothes are beige and sensible?
To show how your outlook may have changed since the halcyon days of youth and the Sex Pistols, read some of these comparisons between life in 1977 and 2009 - I chuckled ruefully!
Only to be read by those whose level of maturity qualifies them to relate to it...

1977: KEG
2009: ECG
1977: Acid rock

2009: Trying NOT to look like Marlon Brando or Liz Taylor

Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things.

Their lifetime has always included AIDS.
Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic.
The CD was introduced the 3 years before they were born.
They have always had an answering machine
They have always had cable.
They cannot fathom not having a remote control.
