This list was clearly aimed at people of my generation.

  1. Hey Scott — If it’s aimed at your generation, then you’re still young.

  2. We Baby Boomers have now been through quite a few cycles of Make-You-Feel-Old lists. There’s a touch of schdenfreude in beholding much younger people who are now being made uncomfortable by these lists.

    Unfortunately, the only way to get Baby Boomers to stop complaining about being Made To Feel Old is death. It is my hope that younger generations will handle aging with more dignity and grace.

    (I wonder when the first M-Y-F-O list came out? If you could say “The first Make-You-Feel-Old List is now old enough to vote,” THAT would be a really good way to make us feel old.)
