    You hit the nail with the Carson mention.

    Swear to god just a few weeks ago I found myself talking to a younger person, saying "Hey, even I looked at Carson as being old/out of touch. Yet, when I was in my 20s, he was still the Tonight Show host."
    "No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris Mannix

      Well I am that guy and I can't hide it although I do look young for my age..
      On the flip side of my references there's a guy I work with who's in his mid 40's and going through a serious Mid-Life crisis. He is the stereotypical guy going through one and tries WAY to hard to act like he's half his age. Kinda funny yet sad.

        I have a friend at work who gets most of my pop culture references, so I'm good. What I like are the long car trips with the family where I can still make my wife laugh and my kids are still trying to figure me out ;D
        It's all good!
