What's on your Murtaugh List?

Asked by 12Oaks (4051points) March 25th, 2011

A list made famous from the TV show “How I Met Your Mother” inspired by Danny Glover’s charater Roger Murtaugh in the movie series “Lethal Weapon.”

Murtaugh’s catch phrase in these movies was “I’m too old for this shit”

Putting something on the Murtaugh List acknowledges that as you grow up, there’s stuff you just can no longer do that you did in your youth.

Crop tops not at my age and not after having a babe

High heels bunions suck…so do flat feet but I already had those before I got too old

I had to search this because I didn’t know what it was lol :-)

OK, now that I’ve read that…. er….

To go with @SpatzieLover‘s crop top suggestion, those sweat pants that show every single crease and line and wibble and wobble… They basically offer no support and let everything just hang down and sag. There is not enough ick in the world.

Heels of any kind whatsoever, certainly not the power heels I used to wear with my power suits of olden days lol. <shudder> even the thought of those things make my feet ache.

Fakeness, of any kind. Fake friends who are toxic behind your back, anything/anyone pretending it/they’re something they’re not. Life is simply too bloody short.

Spending most of the day without wearing a bra

Extreme sports like skiing, bungee jumping or mountain climbing. Also my ever evolving high stress, tedious job.

@12Oaks I’ve thought of another one, I never in my life had to think about what I ate, and I never put any weight on either. I was constantly on the move, running (literally in some cases) from one place to another. As I’ve gotten older (and RA took away my mobility) I’ve turned into a human jelly :-( So that’s another one, I can no longer eat what I want, just because I feel like a nibble, so snacking without reading the label first.

Spending most of the day wearing a bra. The second I’m home, I whip that thing off. Ahhhh.
Running.
Four hour sex.
Sitting on the floor for any length of time.
