Things you can still do now that you did 20 years ago...
 

...only it appears to be much more difficult now than you remember it being.

Recently discovered this is true for riding a bike. I recently bought a new one, and I thought I would go for a nice ride and do some thinking. The only thing I thought about was making it up the next hill...lol.

Riding in one of these...

Breathe?

Masturbate

tons of things....

20 years ago I was single and had no kids! :)



Can still ride the bike though...

Procrastinate.

Eat an entire jar of nutella on one piece of toast.

Awesome.

Live without caring?

Not thinking you could die?

Nice.

I'm also going to have to go with eating without worry about it going to my hips/tummy/butt/thighs.

:rolleyes:

Slolam - 35 years+

It was hard this year, I really had to gut it out to get up.

Watching cartoons; the ones now days are hard to watch because they all suck.

TRUTH!

I wasn't even a twinkle in my fathers eye 20 years ago...

traveling by air. Gosh, it's such a pain in the ass now

I can still smoke a foosball past most people.
I just can't play for hours on end like I did when I was 20.

I can still have sex with a 20 year-old now, but it's much more difficult to do it since my wife won't let me.

I think I'm in better shape than I was 20 years ago...of course I've lost 170lbs in the last 10 years too!

So apparently you can't binge-eat as well as you could 20 years ago.


Seriously, though, congrats on the weight loss. That's got to have the same liberating feel as getting out of prison.

Hmmm... Some things I can do now at 41 that I couldn't come close to at 21.

Deadlift 470lbs for one. Not great, but for me a personal best. Powerclean 240lbs is another. However, I cannot run as fast as I could back then- although I don't really put the miles in like I used to.

Indeed. I had the joy of explaining the phrase, "Wonder Twin Powers...ACTIVATE!" to my three kids a few days ago.

That's when you know you're getting old Luv, when it takes all night to do what you used to do all night.

Congrats on the weight loss.

Drink.

Definately! The hangovers hurt WAY more than they used to...:doh!:

I am now very close to what I use to weigh and can keep it there.

I'm flipping channels, and "Wild Hogs" is on FX. Marisa Tomei is in it. I want to bang her. And I wanted to bang her 20 years ago when she was in "My Cousin Vinny". So I guess that counts.

I can still play Super Mario Brothers and enjoy it.

I figured the 20 year old would be the hurdle.

I can still have sex with a 20 year old, it just costs a lot more.

Hit on 15 year old girls.

Well, from a practical perspective that would likely be an obstacle. But probably no more than it was 20 years ago, too.

masturbate

dammit
 

Wish the Chiefs were World Champions......:cuss:

Go down on a black woman.

why black?

variety is the spice and all that...

300+ yrd drives my game has only improved over the last twenty years.

I agree.

Wait... are you talking self, or someone else? Gotta be specific.

Today I rode a bike 100 miles. I could do that 20 years ago.

Things I cannot do today that I did 20 years ago: Drink alcohol. Result? see above.

How about this . . . it took me 20 years to own another sport bike after going down HARD on one in 1996?

Thanks!

I am a changed man...you definitely look at life differently.

Everything

Damnit!

That was going to be my response. you bastard!

have you watched any of the old cartoons you used to watch as a kid?

i'm gonna be burned for heresy here but this is my honest opinion on the crap i used to watch.

gijoe: probably the best of the bunch but still, extremely cheesy.

transformers: calling this show cheesy is like calling the oceans of the world, just a few rain drops. i mean c'mon, megatron goes from being a 15 foot robot to the size of a walther P38 special? on top of the size difference, as the leader of the decepticons, why does he transform into a gun for his underachieving #2 to shoot?

thundercats: "thunder, thunder, THUNDERCATS!!!. lets just totally rip off HeMan...

Masters of the Universe: how does skeletor get away, EVERYTIME?

Suck at finding a long-term Woman...

attract psychopaths.

Your math teacher should be fired.

Did it occur to you that he suffered brain damage in that bike accident, and his math teacher bears no responsibility for his math failures?

Not much that I can think of that I can't do that I did at that age. This is always a touchy subject with my wife and I. She is always saying we're old. I hate that. As far as I'm concerned, you're only old if you tell yourself that.

I play hoops and while I'm not as quick as I used to be, I am better in other ways. My experience counts for a lot (you will have a hard time getting a backdoor, alley oop, etc. against me). And there is at least one aspect of my game that has improved. I shoot the ball a lot better now and have more offensive skills overall than I did 20 years ago. And even despite being not as quick, I'm still fairly quick and I get lots of rebounds and loose balls. I play against guys 20 years younger and sometimes they just can't believe what an old, fat guy like me can do. :) I do that because I love hoops. And I figure a day will come when my body won't let me do that any longer. So why not let it all out and have fun?

Now ask me about a treadmill and I'll tell you to go to Hell. :D

I still like to play football (just did yesterday, actually), too. I can't run as fast and make quick cuts, but I still have fun doing it. I just don't do this sport very often because its so hard to get enough guys together to play a good game of football. The one huge difference here is that I won't play tackle nowadays. That is because I can't afford to get injured. When I was 19, I didn't care.

I still like to ride a bike but I haven't done that much in the last couple years or so. But I can ride a bike just as well now as I did 20 years ago. Maybe that's because I used to practically live on my bike when I was a youth. You never really lose that skill.

I can't keep up with these kids on games like Call Of Duty because their reflexes seem to be quicker. I don't know if that's because I'm getting older or that they play those games night and day.

Still, I can look at the positive. I have gained a lot of other things in those 20 years. I can do things now that I never thought possible back then. Things like home repairs/remodeling/building, mechanical repairs, plan a trip and have the $$ to do it, etc.

I hadn't thought of that. You may be onto something.

The reality is that there are good teachers and bad teachers.

If I have a deficiency in a certain area, I have no one but myself to blame, because the high school teacher that tried to teach me the subject did everything in her power to motvate me.

She poked, prodded, pushed andcajoled, all to no avail because I had no interest, and my only goal was simply to pass and continue through the system to get my diploma and get the hell out.

This was true in every class for me, but she was the only one that refused to give up, even though she wound up having me in her class in both my freshman year in junior high and my sophmore in high school, after she was transferred to the high school in the same year.

In retrospect, she is the teacher that I have the most respect for and my one regret is that I never got the chance to tell her that, and to thank her for her efforts in spite of me.

shit
bout everything thing else is over

Function on little sleep. I still can, but nearly as easily. The worst art of it is when you doze off in a chair or on the couch on a Saturday afternoon.

Utter horseshit. I'm watching Phineas and Pherb as I type this with my little girl. A great cartoon. Chowder's not bad. Jimmy Neutron pretty good. And Spongebob is often straight hilarious.

Back in the day, I used to get far more sleep than I do these days.

7-8 hours a night then.

4-4 1/2 hours a night these days.

I miss sleep.

Most of the cartoons you guys are talking about from your youth sucked ass too.

Cartoons in the early 60s were far better.

This one's easy--two (or more) nuts in one night. I'm not actually sure, though, that it's that much harder to get the second one. It may just be that i care more about sleeping than getting the nut.


I just thought of something that's much easier now: thinking of ways to kill myself.

No wonder you're so cranky, Red!:D

Congrats! I can't imagine what kind of dedication it must take to lose that much weight

I'm actually a teddy bear today compared to back in the day.

Play football.

Fall down.

Of course, now I just slip out of my walker trying to grab my Ensure, instead of tripping from a bar stool trying to grab some ass.

1) Drink
2) Make my mother cry
3) Grill a mean burger, brat, or steak.
4) (FINALLY) record the Chiefs games.
5) Punch my dad in the nuts and not get mah' ass whooped
6) Stay employed. I know it's sad that this is something someone would bring up...but...it is what it is.
7)18 boiled eggs. It will never compare to "Luke " or his best but I'm only human.
8) Talk a depressed woman into buying me a beer at teh bar.
9) Much more buttseggs.
10) Hole (and hold) an erection for hours with only the help of Anheuser-Busch products...

I found out I can still live on $10/hr

not happy about it
but I can do it

Never mind 20 years ago, wait until your 90. It's like being born again.

Meaning that you're small, bald, wrinkled, helpless, shitting in your diaper, and totally unaware of what's going on in the world around you.

I think we should be born old and go backwards. Start life that way, get younger and healthier, peak at physical perfection when your mind is most ready, then spend your final days playing and watching cartoons, finally to end sucking on tits and, at last, crawling into a coochie to die. :thumb:

I bet.

I can still draw, though better than 20 years ago. I can also fart like I did 20 years ago, however I give the edge to the present day since organic brown shelled eggs are available now.

I can still cry like a little bitch when the Chiefs lose a close game.

Get mad enough at the Chiefs to break things and curse at small animals.
