Theres an old proverb (or maybe its just the title of a Broadway play) that reminds us of the universal truth: You cant take it with you. Though theyre talking about life after death, I believe it applies to your 40s, as well. If youre a man on the cusp of middle age, theres a long list of things you should be leaving in the past. Im talking about everything from scooters that would be mistaken for a childs to wildly age-inappropriate clothing to the single worst haircut any man can haveespecially someone at your dignified station in life.
Now, without further ado, here are the 40 things you should probably say goodbye to immediately. And once youve cut these things out of your life, be sure to learn the 40 words and phrases no man over 40 should ever say.

You mean you are nice enough attend your son’s games and then he tries to get in your eyes?

Enforce the Bill of Rights .........It is the LAW...) No it's not.
It's a text of the reminder that there are human truths that never need to be "laws," an never should!

When I taught networking classes, my students thought my Dilbert tie was hilarious! It was red and black striped, and it had a piece of metal in it, that allowed me to bend it up and away from my belly!
I’d wear it to work today (I’m an infrastructure engineer these days,) but I haven’t been able to find it, since I’ve moved 3 times since those days!

There are so many better ways to announce to the world that youre someone who thinks hes a warrior at life. Why not just mount some ninja swords on your bedroom wall and call it a day?

There is SO much wrong with this ersatz list but it sure got a lot of responses for all the derision it got. And it could have been altered and expanded on with little effort. ;-)

I want a Twin Reverb, because of their clear as glass clean sound. I'm a big fan of Fender bass amps, too...I play my Jazz Bass through a 60 watt 1x15 Bassman combo. But for loud, roaring, Yellowstone super eruption rock and roll tones, I love Mesas, Marshalls and Voxes. For my next acquisition, I want an AC-30, to drive my Les and my American-made Fat Strat.
(Sorry...I could talk gear all day!)

A Les, a Fender amp, and a Schecter bass...nice! Which Fender do you play through?

Before I went in the Navy (50 yrs ago next week) I sold my Twin and my Fender Electric XII, mikes, cables etc. The only thing I kept was my 64/65 Epiphone Riviera which I still have.
Added to the stable, an 82 Fullerton Big Head Hard tail black out strat, a yellow 87 strat, Jerry Donahue Custom shop Tele, 72 reissue Tele deluxe with the big strat head, 98 Sunburst hard tail strat. Amps, 05 Texas Red Deluxe 40 watt and a ‘12 Blues Junior 15 watt that kills it. Plus Frontman 25 for headphone use. I have a buddy that has a BUNCH of Vox amps.

Hubby says the best thing about turning 60 was that he gets to say all kinds of things that he would have never been able to say when he was younger. Now people just laugh and either think he’s joking or that he’s just a grumpy old man.
