STORY TIME
The phrase first appeared in 1980 in Reader's Digest, quickly becoming a cult favorite among Baby Boomers who loved to joke about aging. By the mid-1980s, it was everywhere: on T-shirts, mugs, and birthday cards, fueling the boom in over-the-hill gag gifts. Companies like Hallmark's Shoebox Greetings helped turn it into a true pop catchphrase.

In the 1990s, it returned to prominence in the famous "You know you're getting old when..." lists, fitting in perfectly with the jokes of icons like Bob Hope and Phyllis Diller. Today, it lives on in memes and ironic gadgets, proving that, even if the concept of "happy hour" changes with age, the need to laugh about it remains unchanged.
