A 51-year-old reads a book about aging and reacts to its assessment of what makes someone old. The speaker shares relatable signs of getting older with humor and self-awareness.
So as I approach my 51st birthday next week, my friend bought me this book, how to not be old, even if you are. So take the assessment with me. You involuntarily make noise when you sit down. You've said at some point in the last 30 days, I can't hear myself think. You consider dad jokes just jokes. Your Google searches include recently ergonomic chairs, better sleep supplements, and or how to delete a post on social media. You insist that your new European comfort shoes are stylish, you carry, and get excited about exact change. You still say you're the bomb, your text messages have perfect grammar, and last but not least, you were given this book as a gift. How'd you do.
