Things That Let You Know You're Getting Old

Kinda the opposite of Old School Cool, but I was looking for a thread about things we do now that we couldn't stand when we were younger. Things maybe our parents did. I don't consider myself old but after 40 I've found myself doing or getting irritated with things that didn’t bother me before...haha. I'll start with a few of mine that come to mind.

Drinking ginger ale as a drink of choice.
Eating dark chocolate, the darker the better.
Getting irritated at lights around the house being left on when no one is in the room.
Driving 75 mph or less on the interstate and keeping right. (Actually in SoCal its quicker and more efficient in traffic)
Turning the thermostat up (summer) or down (winter) to "save money"
Unnatural colored hair.
Loud obnoxious music.
Going into a dive bar and the smells of stale beer, old cigarette smoke and a backed up toilet making you feel at home.

I'm sure there are more but I figured this is a good start. Let's hear what you got!
