On the one hand, it's useless to deny reality. On the other hand, I realize that "old" implies "aged to perfection," the "Angel's Share," and the "Devil's Cut"---the best of all worlds, and precisely "fashioned."

It doesn't bother me in the slightest. I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to grow old fashioned. I enjoy the simple things in life like old fashioned people do. Wars, battles, car crashes, etc. have taken many at a young age. I don't mind the smiles lines nor do I mind being able to wake up in the morning, have a cup of coffee and go for a swim. Wars, battles, car crashes, etc. have taken many at a young age. I feel fortunate to have been raised and lived young when I did. I have no desire to be young again. Being old fashioned works just fine with me. :)
Not at all. In some ways, I take it as a compliment, although it may not have been meant as such. Kids today look at life in a much different way than I do simply because the times in which they are growing up are so much different from when I was a kid. I suppose every generation feels that way, but there are some "old-fashioned" things that should never go out of style - manners, respect and consideration for others, for example.
Nope. There are some things about me that are old-fashioned, more old-fashioned than people older than me. Most middle-aged people I know have completely embraced e-books and e-readers, for example, and I have not. Paper all the way.
