That was a pretty harsh moment, I must admit. Kinda like still thinking you're 16 when you suddenly hear the music, then look up to see the car commercial and think, "Hey, cool, corporate America is finally acknowledging the youth of America!" Then you suddenly realize you don't exactly fit the definition of "youth" anymore.
