Twitterverse's 'Getting Old In 4 Words' Is Hilariously Accurate

Getting older "ain't for sissies ," as Bette Davis once said -- and it apparently isn't always very pretty. The hashtag #GettingOldIn4Words has been trending on Twitter and the results have been pretty darn accurate.

From millennials to baby boomers, everyone seems to be feeling the struggles of aging. But the good news is, people seem to be handling the good, the bad and the downright ugly with a healthy dose of humor.

Here are some of the best tweets we spotted:

When you start becoming a little more forgetful...

When all your stories start like this...

When you realize you have no choice but to keep living...

When you realize how much you've learned...

When your body hair starts rearranging itself...

When things just aren't the way they used to be...

When you're very comfortable in your own skin...

When you realize you're already past "getting old"...
