Reddit: 5 signs you're getting older according to Reddit users

We try to avoid talking about it, but every day one thing stays consistent, we are all getting older. Getting older is a part of life, it means birthdays, changing jobs, finding new friends and perhaps losing old ones in the process. But what are some other signs you are getting older? Social media users have been discussing the topic, are you experiencing any symptoms? 5 signs that you're getting older according to Reddit users A user on Reddit took to the r/AskReddit page to ask the question - "What's a sign you're getting older?" Here are some of the things Reddit users said. One user jokingly said: "You involuntarily make noises when you sit down." Another user replied: "And when you stand up." Many agreed, with another saying: "Right, I don't ache yet, but you better believe I'm going uuuuuuaaaaghhhhh when I stand up from a seated position." Often when applying for things online, or using any website that requires your details, it will ask for your date of birth. How to Live Longer Noting this, one Reddit user said: "When entering my details, the drop-down menu for (Year of birth) keep getting higher and higher." Agreeing, another user said: "I hate the ones that make you scroll... Just let me type it in please, it'll save everyone some time." "You have to spin it like the wheel or fortune to find the year," joked another. When you are younger you are keen to look for things to do to keep your brain occupied. However, many noticed when you are getting older, you "look forward to doing nothing". One user said: "Doing nothing is my favourite thing to do. It's great." A user was quick to point out that they had to make their mouse cursor larger at work as a sign they were getting older. It opened the door to many admitting the same. One said: "I had to make everything on my phone bigger." "I'm increasing my Kindle font size by one every year it seems," said another.
