Silver pubes.

Young ladies in pubs annoy you more than they arouse you.
That was the case in 2010 as Vettel is 3 months younger than me. So I was old at 22!

Maybe I'm getting old, but I don't recall ever watching Billy Connolly

Perhaps he is...

He did watch Billy Connolly, it's just that he can't remember it.

Other things forgotten:
- Where his glasses are (on head or on chain around neck).
- Where he last parked the car.
- Names of children/dogs.
- Age.
- Any and all pa$$Words (if not on post-its attached to monitor).
- Any encounter with a respectful youth.
- etc...
