It's not just you being "old", and it's not just job descriptions. The negative effects of obvious hyperbole in web ads is well documented.
FWIW, I think both of the job ads cited in startupcto's original post are poor, though one is clearly much worse than the other. (I'm willing to provide specific criticisms, but I won't do so here unless someone asks me to.)
