I have some Victorian wine glasses, that are 150 years old.....no sign yet of them sagging

I expect, however, that these glasses have seen a few drinkers sagging over the 150 years!

If you meant including me......I can only say how rude

I'll have to take a look at my old Pentax Takumar 'normal' lens...think it is a 55mm F2. Bought it new since in '68. I store it horizontally, and in a dark, cool location. Hope it hasn't melted. I have sadly neglected turning my lenses.
