There's a good explanation why many people, especially adults, feel younger than they actually are. It's a phenomenon called 'subjective age,' which proposes that the way we feel inside is very different from the number of years we've walked this Earth. That said, no matter how young we feel, we can't run away from our true age, and some moments in life ensure that we don't forget that, like seeing a childhood toy in a thrift store or spotting an '80s artifact in the wild. People in this community have shared countless similar moments that made them say, 'Heck, I'm old,' which we compiled in a list below. Ready to embark on a bittersweet, nostalgic journey? To start, all you have to do is scroll down!

#25 Caddyshack. July 25, 1980. Cinematic History
On this date in 1980, "Caddyshack" was released."Scum... slime... menace to the golfing industry. You're a disgrace and you're varmints. You're the lowest members of the food chain and you'll probably be replaced by the rat."After filming ended and the rough-cut came in it was too long, and over two hours had to be cut. This also included key parts of the main plot, and the film made no sense, so more money had to be spent on a mechanical gopher to add extra comic relief and to tie the picture together. Writer/producer Douglas Kenney was adamantly against the final addition of the gopher to the film.Director Harold Ramis suggested that a live animal play the gopher. Rusty Lemorande had been a professional puppeteer through his college years and convinced the team that only with the kind of control you had with a puppet could the quantity of material be filmed. He searched for a suitable creature builder. Companies such as The Henson Company (which became the premier creature builders in the 1980s) did not yet take outside assignments, so Lemorande contacted friends at Walt Disney Imagineering for help. One of the Disney theme park creature designers, Jeff Burke, was willing to create the character but only on a moonlight basis. Lemorande drew a simple sketch, indicating the range of movement the puppet would require and Burke fleshed out the remainder of the creature's design with further input from Lemorande. The gopher rod and hand puppet sat in Lemorande's office for weeks. During that time producers Kenney, Jon Peters and Ramis would come into the office to play with the creature, trying to figure out how to integrate it into the film.The noises that the Gopher makes are actually vocalized by a dolphin, and the dolphin sound effects used are the same ones that were used for the television series "Flipper".The reason the scenes of Mr. Gopher's underground world look better than the rest of the film is because they were filmed on a sound-stage with better quality film stock and cameras rather than on-location, like the majority of the film.Fun fact: In real life gophers usually stay away from golf courses. The biggest menace to a course is a mole. (IMDb)
