Not in the original series. Possibly political correctness infected whatever version you saw.... no surprises there!

This is another reason you know when your getting old.... when many of the beloved older shows you grew up with are considered 'offensive' by society today, but most of what you see on TV that is new, is offensive to you!

True... Also you know you're old when you can't stand seeing these Kiddies with their mobile phones out checking and looking at them all the time.

Well.... i have to confess that when i see children looking at mobiles, i feel relieved because its keeping them quiet and out of trouble..... i call that a freaking Godsend!
.... yea, um dont disturb sleeping bears and children on mobiles, that's my motto!

Eh, if I had kids i'd keep an eye on em as a shocking amount(from the news i've read that's credible) use such devices to perv and be spied on BY pervs.

This just happened to me:

When you start a sentence "you know that famous person/movie/song/event..." and the young people around you have no idea what you are talking about.

POW! Right in the kisser!

bah! when your eyelashes (the ones left) turn grey.


when you realize that proper english spelling and grammar is a thing of the past

when your siblings kids approach 50

when your still living pop culture icons are counted on two hands

when you realize that all your conversations with friends are about health issues and who is on their way out

when you remember when cash was king and you could easily plop a wad in the bank (manned by real employees) or buy a car without anal probes and fbi tracking

when paying bills and shopping was a labor chore

flying meant just getting straight on the plane in comfy seats

when social security numbers were used as a given id... full numbers given out willy nilly for everything

you remember rotary phones, gas for 24cents/gall with full service person, no seat belt laws, most of the stars were au natural - no plastic surgery except nose jobs),modem sounds

when everyone smoked... everywhere. and ashtrays. when was the last time you saw an ashtray?

Front-wheel drive man! Who needs those unseemly back tires when towing a classy boat with a classy car! ;)

... when it becomes increasingly more common for someone you knew to be listed in the obituaries.

People call you Mister, assume that you are married and others around you are more eager to believe whatever you are spouting, just because you have the looks of their elder (too bad the latter doesn't include respect as well, like in yester eras).

Huh, i did not even have to look at the link to get that reference!

Oh yea, that's another reason you know your getting old.... when people reference something from the black and white tv era and you dont need to click on the link to get the reference!!
