You know you're old when........

When you are in the grocery store and there are a bunch of high school aged kids blocking the isle you need to go down and you hear one of them quietly say, "Make room for the lady."

Yes, true story this happened to me yesterday. When did I become a lady? Doesn't that name make you feel old? Or is it just me?
