The less obvious signs of ageing
Discussion
As I cruise into my mid 30's I'm starting to notice some changes.
Some of which I didn't expect.
Dancing for example. I used to be able to look quite good in the nightclub setting. This dancing ability later progressed to 'ironic' comedy dancing at weddings etc, but still, the well oiled 'moves' lurked just under the surface.
But the other day I was having a brief lounge rave with the kids, caught a glance of myself in the mirror looking devastatingly 'spaz'.
What other changes can I expect as I get older?

I'm 26 and I have only just started to get chest hair! I'm hoping that this has a knock on effect and delays the rest of the unsightly hair sprouting.
Good riddens to spots though, one of the benefits of getting older!

I', er, over 40.
Looking devastatingly 'spaz' - Check
Nose hair - Check - including the ones which grow on the front of the nose
Not being able to get up off the sofa without grunting - Oh god, check, that only started recently
Ear hair - Check. MrsC and her tweezers help out here
A proper session writes off the next 3 days. Hmm, typically only 36 hours or so in my case. There is hope!
I'm 26 and I have only just started to get chest hair! Check. Check GREY chest hairs
Good riddance to spots though, one of the benefits of getting older! FAIL, today I have two on my nose
It's all good really!

Um... are you sure the spaz dancing is an actual change? Maybe it's just your perception that's changed. 
Hey, back off. I can't point you towards a scientific journal to provide irrefutable proof of my talent. But when Turbo B from Snap announced:
"I'm as serious as cancer when I say rhythm is a dancer"
He was in fact referrring to me, -'rhythm' being my middle name. Notionally speaking.
And 'you girls' always looked amazed when I was strutting my st... -oh hang on.

I was later than that when i started with chest hair. Only 30 now it goes down hill fast from now on mate. I feel so old now even tho i look prob about your age. Good riddens to spots though, one of the benefits of getting older!
38 here and can add the following:
Grey chest hairs
Back and various limbs feel sore every now and then
Feel like an afternoon snooze some days
Can't shift my 'spare tyre' around the waist
Get beaten regularly at online PS3 games
Think some new music is rubbish e.g. don't really like Eminem's new song
Suddenly found I like watching BBC Nature Documentaries (like that one on Yellowstone Park) and Peter Snow's history programs.
But on the positive side have becoming much more confident, knowledgeable and earn shed loads more money compared to 10 years ago.
