> When I went through the house yelling to the kids, "When you leave the room, turn the light OFF!"

> When I dislocated my jaw yawning.

> When sons of FB players I watched growing up got drafted into the NFL.

> As I left a bar & waited for my husband to come out, I thought, We're the oldest people here by ten years at least. Then, to my relief, I saw an old guy in the crowd. Then, to my horror, I realized the old guy was my husband.
