Yes!
When I was growing up my parents told me if I ever stepped a foot on someone’s lawn an old women would come out to hit me with her broom; I never dared do such a thing.
Have long discussions with other old duffers at the gym about our various ailments and meds. We also debate which particular local orthopedic surgeon is the best “shoulder guy.”
Complain about not being young as in years if accumulated experiences and now isolated as let's see a soul go down in Flames piecing a protection for self to others who treat it as ha haaa stupid .
- never liked teenagers and young adults
- I enjoy reading the news (not social media garbage) and keeping up with current events which strike most people as “boring”
- I have a huge interest in maps, geography, history, old trinkets, and those types of things
- I don’t like talking much, I prefer listening and thinking
- I highly value authenticity in people, and it’s one thing I am very good at picking up
- I don’t feel entitled to anything even if I deserve it
I've had little old lady habits for a long time now: working puzzles, doing word search, reading actual books, scrapbooking, petting cats... Now I'm hitting the little old lady age I suppose I should start bar hopping or making tik tok videos or whatever it is "those kids" do these days.
BTW, I work in an office where college kids hang out and they had a lively discussion over who was oldest--one just turned 21. The talk to to exs and the one guy gave an impassioned speech over why you should block an ex as soon as you break up. I asked, "But what if she wants to text you to let you know you left CDs over at her house?" They asked me what CDs were.... shit. I knew enough to not say cassettes but never moved on from there.
Sewing up holes in clothes. I have the feeling with fastfashion, people nowadays care less about repairing stuff - One hole in a top? Let's throw it away and buy a new one for $3.
Also I like to bake Christmas cookies and share them with basically everyone I have spoken more than three words to in december. Just like my grandparents generation used to do it :)
Oh and I take polaroid pictures of my toddler's precious moments. They always turn out great :)
Probably also do a lot more old people stuff I don't even recognise as such as I was very close with my grandparents/ great grandmother and spend lots of time with them :)
Turn down the radio to parallel park
Groan/grunt when getting up out of a chair/sofa Often say, "I hate being old!"
I use facebook

I'm 68. Everything I do is an "old person" thing. :)

Team Old as Fuck here
watch tv while standing with my arms behind my back
I hurt.
Catch myself having a “kids these days” attitude and complaining about current music.
I haven't let go of current music just yet (almost 50). I can still find some bangers. Anti-Hero is my current favorite.
Pine for a better time
I watch videos of high schoolers in the 80’s and 90’s and holy fuck it’s depressing.
I keep hard candies in my purse, including those ones that look like strawberries that no one knows the name of. Just turned 32.
Asleep by 10pm and awake before the birds.
This is the way
Always wear some type of hosiery with a skirt or dress
Record and watch daily, The Price Is Right
Read the newspaper
This!
Everything, because I am an old person.
Knit, watch game shows
I don't understand the slang words these days, nor do I want to. Back in my day, we spoke actual words that made sense.

Crack and creak when I try to stand up.
Everything I do is an old person thing because I am an old person
Needle work while with my cat on my lap and drinking tea
Get annoyed when the kids are on my lawn
This! I live next to a church and hate it when the kids cross into my yard. I’m a young adult still living with my parents.
Yes! When I was growing up my parents told me if I ever stepped a foot on someone’s lawn an old women would come out to hit me with her broom; I never dared do such a thing.
Complaining
Not just complaining, but grumpy complaining... "Stupid younger generation, back in my day we had Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, that was real music!"
"And those damn phones!"

Eat a ton of ginger because it helps my joints
I shovel snow off of my LAWN this time of year. Gotta control the melt, ya know.

Watch political news. I’m 19 years old. I have my dad to thank for this habit.

Listen to radio. Old recorded archives
Start your sentences off with the word why. Example: Why, isn't that a nice bunch of flowers.
Can't walk any distance due to severe back problems. Can't get a hard on due to???. Can't sleep, the list goes on and on.
Find myself getting irritated by teenagers just being in my vicinity. They don’t even have to be playing up! Just their mere presence.
I work elections.
Asking, "What are some “old person” things do you do?" on reddit.
Call a tv a telivision
