41 years old and counting....
I am indeed 41, but I try to ignore that fact. However, the evidence is overwhelmingly against my consistent denials. Witness the following:

I simply cannot get into, or out of, a comfy chair without making that 'oooh' or 'ahh' noise. You know the one chaps, don't deny it.

My knees crack when I kneel down.

If an attractive young lady should happen to wander by I find myself thinking, rather than Phwoarr (my mere use of that word reinforces my age dammit!) I think "Isn't she cold in that?" or "Does her dad allow her out dressed like that?!". Ok, so occasionally it's Phwoarr, but I have to consciously remember it.

All the music in the...ahem...Hit Parade is tripe and not like the Real Music We Had In My Day(tm).

I actually (edit: think I) HAD a "My Day".

I have slippers. Oh God. Slippers, the very footwear of doom, the comfy slip-on of death.

I dance like a dad. When the FUCK did that happen? I used to mosh good!! no, Really!

There's a cardigan too. Hoodies are scary. I have a hood on my cardigan. Confused.

There is a place in my house, under the stairs, where I keep a pile of old newspapers. You never know when they'll be handy.

...I'm sorry, I can't go on, the pain is too much. I'm going to dust off my LRP sword and go hit things for the first time in ten years. And play some PROPER rock music. And then drink cheap lager....

...but that'll be after I go and Saw a Piece of Wood, because thats what dads do. Isn't it?

Wellllll....
I have a sneaking suspicion why Spanky might need to put down old newspaper all over the floor, but I can reccomend to him that plastic sheeting is less absorbent and less likely to allow fluids to leak through onto the carpet.

Not that I speak from experience of course.

cardigans with hoods are hoodies:
jumper with fastenings at the front: cardigan.

add hood and you have a hoodie.

If you find youself trying to point that out to some kids then you;re either insane or old.
