I haven't been "high" for 6 years, thank you.
I'm tipsy. There's a difference.

Whatever you're drinking, I'll take some too!!! Over the hill would be not so much a number of years, but how you perceive yourself. I think I am heading up the mountain, but hopefully I am not at the peak yet!!! But you have to accept what life dishes out for you. We can't stay young forever. It just isn't in the game plan. We have to experience aging and accept our fate and hopefully there is a better existence beyond this one!

Originally it meant "small," as in a "nice distinction" (small, precise distinction). The way the word is commonly used now, I think it means 1 or 2, maybe 3 things. 1. "nice" means kind, friendly: "He is a nice person." 2. "nice" sometimes means "enjoyable" or "high quality" This is a nice day. This is a nice house. That's a nice sweater you're wearing. Those are nice shoes. 3. The word can also be used sarcastically or ironically, I think. Someone does something rude or cruel to someone else, and you comment: "Nice." Meaning: Not nice.

Well, considering most ppl live to be about 100, 50+ would be over the hill, but some ppl say 60+
