You know you are getting old and have been on M4C too long when....

**FromMyColdDeadHand** · 02-15-18, 00:32

Was looking at a scope mounting issue and I did a Google search, which lead back to an M4C thread from about 8+ years ago that I participated in where I described a scope-rifle-mount combo that I don't remember ever trying. You know you are getting old when you start to read something and you think the poster is really smart and you realize it is actually you that wrote it, but you have no recollection of it. You are an old bastard when you hate the guy who wrote the post and then you realize it was you.

That and when people at the range know who you are because they recognize your rifle...

Take heart, you won't really be "old" until we have members where your registration date precedes their birthdates.

Though I too have had my share of "No shit, *I* wrote that?!" moments over the years...

You know you're old when you use the search function and find you have asked and answered the question here before!

Old? How's that? Say again? What's a search function?

There is a 50:50 chance I've started a thread like this before...

Thats when you know your really old because your memory is failing you and you are not sure if this is the 1st time you've started a thread like this or the 50th!!.

Well, they say that memory is the second thing to go. Now what was the first...

I'm over 50 and starting to fart dust, but at least I'm not hiding my own Easter eggs yet.
