I just make faces with mine, do stupid things, make a little dance and generally act stupid. I talk to them a little but never anything serious. Most days, other than my wife, they're the only individual I get to share a laugh with in person.

Whatever you say or do ... say hi to them for me.

Become distraught about how old they look now.

I was finding more grays and wrinkles for a while but now my eyeballs don't work as good and it's all just a blurry mess, so at least I got that goin' for me

Yo pay the optometrist the extra $60 to check for glaucouma. In my case they caught it early and I got the eye plaque lasered out of me before it could become a problem.

Same here but at the same time I joke around with them, do a dance, make a face and laugh with them as we both walk towards the abyss. Getting old sucks but at least I'll have my fun while I can.
