    Cause 30 is old? Oof…

      I think it’s less that 30 is old and more that that is about the age your start to realize the age difference.

      You can live most of your twenties and still feel somewhat connected to people plus or minus 5 years. However when you hit 30 you start to have more in common with people who are 40 than people who are 20.

      That said I didn’t really have this experience until I was in my late 30s and the little track suit crews with their broccoli cuts showed up. I’m just a late bloomer I guess.

        I went to college in my mid-twenties and all my peers thought I was a geezer.

      The warranty expires as soon as you hit 25.

          I’d much rather be considered washed than unwashed, so that’s good

            Unfortunately, being washed is unintuitively quite bad.

              I’m assuming that’s a truncated version of “washed out” or “washed up”

                I’ve been told by my 20yo classmates that glazed = covered in cum = good and that washed = to be clean of cum = bad.

              Being washed is at least kinda good because that implies there was a period where you weren’t. Rather have that than never needing washing in the first place ✊

        25 fucked with me mentally, but late thirties is when you actually start breaking down.

          I had some things start failing at 35, but recovered a bit and feel better now at 45.

          But I quit my soul crushing desk job career and had a kid in those intervening years too.

          So basically I traded financial security for healthy life and family time.

            My early 50s had me in the best shape of my life, running 6 miles or biking 25-50 miles nearly every day and being ripped and weighing less than I had since I was a teenager. I’m nearing 60 now and arthritis is creeping into all my joints, though. The breakdown happens eventually no matter how successfully you stave it off.

        Agreed. It all goes downhill after 25.

        Around 25 you have to interact with all ages, and everyone starts to blend.

      30 plus is when you start noticing the mental gap with the younger kids in certain areas
