    You go out at 7 and go home at 11. Or earlier.

    You'd prefer to walk than take a lift in the back seat of a two door car. Because you know once you're in, there's a good chance you're not getting out, and even if you manage escape, you'll lose all dignity in the process.

    I can pretty much time my heartburn to ten minutes into the second half if I’ve had a pie pre match from the Oakwell sandwich shop.

    I mean I'm only in my early 20's but I realised this when I started getting excited about texting my girl good deals from the grocery store

    You congratulate yourself when your ankles only crack 5 times when walking upstairs.

    You crouch down to get something from the bottom shelf and you can't stand back up again without help.

    When you look at something in the free little catalogue of old people's stuff that comes with the sunday paper and think 'ooh, that looks nice'
