Are you picking up any unattractive habits/personality traits as you age?

Besides the physical act aging itself, is there anything else happening to you (personality-wise) as you age that you're not too thrilled about. I admit that I am becoming forgetful. Sometimes just sixty seconds after I set out to do something, it falls to the back of my mind and I'm thinking 'What the hell was I about to just do?' Then twenty seconds later it dawns on me again.

Chris, I'm with you on the forgetting but I wouldn’t call that a habit or personality trait. I think I’ve improved in some ways. I’m more patient then when I was younger.

I've become a lot more serious as I age and I don't know why.

AGING!???
You guys haven't even begun aging.
What? Have any of you passed ur third decade? Fourth?
OH!
I guess becoming an old curmudgeon could be an unattractive habit, but being honest and outspoken could also be considered a good personality trait at any age.
I have always questioned my cultural norms and challenged authority so can't really blame that on ageing.
In fact, other than being less fearful of consequences of my public outspokenness on sex positive issues, including porn attributed to my real name and porn pics that show my face in the act, I don't think there is much new to my personality.

"Growing Old is Mandatory - Growing Up is Optional"

If I was born in the 70's have I seen four or five?

Four. I was born in '79, so technically I have seen four (70s, 80s, 90s, 00s.)
Edit: I guess, technically, five now that I consider this new decade.

I have some forgetfulness too. I go to google & then it's like "uh...what?" Go in a room & forget why. lol But probably the main one for me is that the older I get the more my "give a damn" malfunctions. There's generally this filter we have between our brain & our mouth & mine is seriously starting to fail.

I can't stand loud music in the car. Drives me batty. I always liked most music, but I am morphing into one of those people who says, "You can't even understand what they are singing..." So lame.

With the way music is today I think we're better off NOT knowing what they're singing, IF you can call it singing. See? I can do an old person well too.

No, that's genuinely how I feel about most alleged 'music' today, and I have for years.

I'm the same way. The other day I was at a gas station and this guy was pumping his gas while his radio was blasting music and all I could think of was "how rude!" Is your music that vital to that you can't turn it off for five minutes to pump gas or are you a narcissist who thinks everyone wants to hear what's on your radio and are just looking for attention? In some regards I guess I'm getting crankier with age.

I say fight fire with fire...we don't want to hear the new crap, so I introduce everybody I know to the bad 80s music that I find to be SOOOOOOOOOOO much better. Seriously, I don't get why people hate a lot of it. Here's one of my favorites:
This song, not the video, the song, was listed #1 on VH1's list of 40 most incredibly BAD hit songs, and there were about 10 or 20 others on that list that deserved that title more than this.

I certainly think so, it's been a favorite of mine for years.
