Aside from Gout Banter, what do you old turds relish about getting old?

For me, it's that I don't have to fetch stuff anymore.
I don't have to fetch slushies, I just tell a kid to.
Don't fetch tools, I get someone else to.
Fetching is just plain over, and it's wonderful.

That's kinda tied with being able to say "I'm tired" and being able to get out of anything.
If we're out, it's a perfectly valid excuse to go home.
It's also perfectly valid when I don't want to go somewhere.
It is a beautiful, beautiful thing.
