I knew a girl that, every time she sneezed would say, "better than an orgasm and easier to get".
Maybe stick to sneezing.

Travel. I used to whizz about all over the place. Now it takes a crowbar to get me through the door. I just can't be arsed.

Tbh, I wonder if this is a mental thing or just a symptom of being an old git. But events that would once have got me out of my chair now make me think: 'Fuck it! I'm comfortable at home, and I've got stuff to do. If I go out I might miss a sleep in the afternoon/what my missus is cooking for dinner/some shit on TV/whatever.'

Talking to the mrs. Waste of time, just told her Aldi are selling carrots for 15p and she somehow turned it into summat to nag me about.

According to the internet tutorials you just need to put a bit more effort in.

She probably came to the conclusion that she married a guy who talks about discounted carrots in Aldi and has had enough.. :-)

Id like to say the rags. I used to watch their games hoping that they lost and once they opened the scoring I’d turn it off only to check back every twenty minutes or so. I still fuckin do! So I can’t say it’s them. :-(
I’m gonna say all other sports which aren’t football. We used to get a smattering of other sport on the telly on Grandstand, World of Sport, Sportsnight and Transworld Sport but now there’s fuck all apart from horse racing and shite tennis.

 

[Protein Junkie]

Yellow pages and the BT Phone Book.

 

[Bill Walker]

Socialising.
Me and her used to invite people over for a meal & drinks, barbie etc.. and get return invites but can't be arsed anymore, too much work involved.
I like meeting new people on a cruise holiday but that's about it now.
Some old faces on the cruises which it's good to catch up with also.

Being in a relationship, and certainly living under the same roof as someone else. Don't bother to tell me my life is sad, I'm really fine with it.
I don't deny the value of the (generally long) relationships that I was in. But that was then. Could not possibly hack it, now. And that's been the case for years.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

I kind of agree.

I love boxing, it's my favourite sport and had done it from the age of six but I've lost interest compared to before. I'd stay up all hours and watch fights from all over the world until a few years ago.

The main thing that started making me lose interest is cards where nearly every fight was a 95/5 kind of fight for the A side with an inevitable results. The other is corrupt score cards for home/A side fighters.

That said, I still like it and I don't mind that the Saudi money is putting a lot of good cards on, just a shame it means there's very few tickets for boxing fans.

It's just become a frustrating sport. Now we have Canelo using every excuse under the sun to not fight Benavidez. It's just getting tedious trying to really enjoy it all.

Honestly, isn't this something to do with the absolute titans we had boxing years ago? And don't seem to have now? I quite like the “gypsy king”, and follow his bouts, because he's got a lot of what boxers call heart, but surely not for the beauty of his boxing.

There's just as many great fighters as there was always was. People look at the past with nostalgia and think it was better but all sports things have improved over the years and boxing is no different, it's just there's no way to measure it like sprinting or something, but it would be naive to think sports have moved on so much but boxing hasn't.

The likes of Crawford, Inoue, Bivol, Beterbiev, Usyk, Fury, Lomachenko, Golovkin, Canelo etc etc would have been very good fighters in any era. Only people clinging onto the past think otherwise.

The only thing better in the past was there wasn't so many things in the way preventing fights as much, like promoters that don't work with each other, broadcasting deals and things like that... but that seems to be changing now with the Saudi money in boxing and we are getting the fights that should be made.

I do think boxers were held in higher regard in the past and are seen as titans, but a lot of it was because boxing was held in better esteem because there wasn't as much frustration around it with boxing politics. The fighters themselves are just as good as ever. In reality, fighters like Crawford would match up very well with Ray Leonard and whatnot.

Also Tyson Fury is a fantastic boxer, skill wise. Just because he just lost a fight to another great fighter doesn't change that, many great fighters lose. Boxing has never seen anyone like Fury, a massive man that size that can box inside, outside, orthodox, southpaw, forwards or backwards, high ring iq. Anyone who knows the art of boxing knows he's a tremendous talent, he just lost to another tremendous talent. Both of those guys would be good in any era.

But as I always say, people only cling to the past in sports with no definitive measurement. In sports where things can be proven, records have improved over time generally. That means athletes get better over time, so it'd be silly to think football or boxing hasn't either.

International football, for some time now I’ve grown less and less interested to the point where I don’t even know when the Euros start this year.

And football in general, apart from City. With the rise of the clear anti-City agenda in the media I find myself hating all our rival teams now, whereas a few years ago I’d be quite excited to watch a game like Spurs v Liverpool on TV as a neutral. Now I hate them all so much I only watch City.

Modern music. I used to go to so many gigs at uni and afterwards at the Academy ‘til about ten years ago, loved hearing new bands on 6Music. Now I’ve completely lost touch and just listen to stuff I’ve had for years on Spotify. Got to say, the best era was the mid/late 90s though, proper bands with real instruments in some sweaty venue.

I guess I’m just getting old.

 

[J.G.Blue.]

Sadly I really miss riding my motorbike, I dont think I will ever understand why, when your young, you couldnt give a toss about your own safety, you feel invincible & bad things will never happen to you & yet when you get old you only see all the dangers involved, worry about this that & the fuc#ing other when it doesn't really matter because you only have a few years left anyway?

 

[jimharri]

I have to be honest; I don't love the sport of football any more. Too much amateur dramatics, VAR, saturation coverage on the telly, incompetent officiating, the common football fan slowly being priced out of the game. It's a business now, as much as it is a sport.



I'll never stop loving City, mind. Once they hook you, you stay hooked.
