There’s an old proverb (or maybe it’s just the title of a Broadway play) that reminds us of the universal truth: “You can’t take it with you.” Though they’re talking about life after death, I believe it applies to your 40s, as well. If you’re a man on the cusp of middle age, there’s a long list of things you should be leaving in the past. I’m talking about everything from scooters that would be mistaken for a child’s to wildly age-inappropriate clothing to the single worst haircut any man can have—especially someone at your dignified station in life.
Now, without further ado, here are the 40 things you should probably say goodbye to immediately. And once you’ve cut these things out of your life, be sure to learn the 40 words and phrases no man over 40 should ever say.

Written no doubt by a homosexual.
I like by ball caps and my flip-flops. Homos don’t like either.
People like my Iron Maiden tie... And I’m not the only geezer doing heavy deadlifts in the gym wearing a hoodie :-)
They’re antiques and will be valuable in later years.
Is this click-bait? A slide-show?
Why not post the 40 items?
I am conforming to 39/40. I do have a pair of flip-flops. And they look a lot like the example (brown)
Same. Deadlifts with a hoodie is the only way to roll.
I’m 48 :-)
I’ll wear what I want, when I want.
Not a slide show.
No tracksuit. Unless you're Italian.
I can’t believe I wasted my time reading this s—t...
People who write code for websites need to keep this in mind. Not good if it overloads a persons browser. And no, I probably don't want to watch movie advertisements. It is cool and pretty but I am not interested, thank you.
Do Tevas count as flip flops?
It’s the only thing on that list I may still have.
Well, the occasional date born in the 90’s too.
F You! (To the writer)
I didn’t see, ‘Leave Your Mommy’s Basement’ on that list?
Must’ve been an editing error. ;)
I’m 53 and I wear flip-flops daily.
I have Tevo amphibious sandals in camouflage. LOVE them.
So, once you do everything in the article, you are left with a well-made fedora and London Fog coat, a finely-crafted walking stick, and a top-notch valise that fits in the closet of a Pullman car for those long train rides. Looking quite snappy my good man and all that. Tut tut. Now fetch me my slippers and pipe, because I must do the crosswords now. Please, do turn up the gas light.
I’m looking at post 12.
Blog pimps suck.
I have a pair on right now.
