Are you getting old? Here's test. If you watch this video and it makes tears come to your eyes, you are getting old.

    No tears, but it made me smile. Poor kid will probably be ridiculed by his classmates for his reaction if they see the video though.

      I saw a news story on this incident just last week, so it wasn't a surprise and didn't make me cry.

      Well, I didn't cry at the news story either, I just thought it was a heartwarming story.

      But guess what?

      I'm getting old anyway. :p

          At my age?
          I guess that means I'm a late bloomer.

          Congratulations, that was called perseverance and there is nothing more rewarding that the face of that kid seeing his blue friend again...
          and yes I am literally getting older.
          P.S. Sorry for my bad "inglés" lol. :p

    This is kid's stuff. The real test of age is if you HAVE any stuffed animals that the cloth hasn't deteriorated into dust yet.

      That reminds me of this:
      "It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in your joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."
