6. I did get told by a 4 year old in my church...

You're not old. You play drums.

Keeping that in mind.

5. Happy birthday, you old fart!

As a present, I made you your very own copycat thread.

It wasn't expensive, but it comes from the heart.

7. Hey...this is an insult...

I turned 40 in March.

And I don't consider myself old...more like ancient, aged, antediluvian, antiquated, antique, archaic, been around, fossil, primeval, relic, rusty...

Happy Birthday

:party:

:toast:

:beer:

10. Happy Birthday

No consolation from me, 40 looks damned good from where I sit. Reminds me of when I was moaning about turning 50....my 70 year old uncle asked if I wanted to switch. Enjoy your 40s, they are great, but the 50s are better :P
