The devil whispered to me, “I’m coming for you.” I whispered back, “Bring pizza.”
Having plans sounds like a good idea until you have to put on clothes and leave the house.
It’s weird being the same age as old people.
When I was a kid I wanted to be older…this is not what I expected.
Life is like a helicopter. I don’t know how to operate a helicopter.
Chocolate is God’s way of telling us he likes us a little bit chubby.
It’s probably my age that tricks people into thinking I’m an adult.
Never sing in the shower! Singing leads to dancing, dancing leads to slipping, and slipping leads to paramedics seeing you naked. So remember…Don’t sing!
If 2020 was a math word-problem: If you’re going down a river at 2 MPH and your canoe loses a wheel, how much pancake mix would you need to re-shingle your roof?
We can all agree that in the past not a single person got the answer correct to, ‘Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?’
If you can’t think of a word say “I forgot the English word for it.” That way people will think you’re bilingual instead of an i***t.
Errands are starting to count as going out.
C****acoaster noun: the ups and downs of a p******c. One day you’re loving your bubble, doing workouts, baking banana bread and going for long walks and the next you’re crying, drinking gin for breakfast and missing people you don’t even like.
Don’t be worried about your smartphone or TV spying on you. Your vacuum cleaner has been collecting dirt on you for years.
I’m getting tired of being part of a major historical event.
At what point can we just start using 2020 as profanity? As in: “That’s a load of 2020.” or “What in the 2020.” or “abso-2020-lutely.”
You don’t realize how old you are until you sit on the floor and then try to get back up.
We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a lot more information in our heads. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I'll play your little game Mr. Frost, even though I'm 700 years younger than you!
Not to call into attention the pre- conceived conditions that I grew up with where you save everything.
You know, twisty ties from bread sacks, butter dishes, old clothes for quilts, string from feed sacks in case you get a cut horse, dog, or kid.

You are a good man, Archie,, while I have a big pile of those twisty ties.. I have found no one else who will admit to it..
Dishes, quilts.. you bet.... string from feed sacks.. darn how could I miss that..I better start hoarding this week for sure...
And it does feel that 700 years would be about right... darn it...

What wrong with a bunch of twisty ties? They are quite useful. Keep a small glass full of 'em.

Good list. #3 to me means that it is weird when people start treating you like old people and want to help you so you won't hurt yourself doing something dangerous. Well, if it's dangerous may I ask why you are doing it and not allowing me.
Looks like in the picture you have a lot of youngster help for the old timer there.
