My local gym frowns on me wearing my walking boots while using their equipment.

Not sure what the problem with these are...Then again I'm not middle aged, a good thing too by the looks of it.

I'm over 40 and own three of those. Does that mean I'm not really middle aged?

This will obviously be generation-specific.

For example the middle-aged lot right now grew up without the majority of video games and general tech we have now. As a result, it can be seen as an 'adolescent' thing to play with them or have them.

But I am growing up (still at 28?) surrounded by it so when I hit middle-age, I won't necessarily wish to stop and no one should force me to.

I'm 38 and have had a games console or computer since I was about 8 yr old, I'll have one until I'm 90 too.

How can those of us exempt from the ravages of male pattern baldness drive our mid life crisis sports cars without a baseball cap to keep hair from eyes?
