35 today.
Why am I 35 already?
Please stop.
Help.
I remember 35. That’s exactly when I started feeling like I was actually in my 30s. Let me tell you, it just keeps going like that, and you’ll only realise how young you are years and years from now. Rinse and repeat.
Close to 30, stopped aging at 22
Things to know you’re 30
“I wish the odd white one just went with the grain” (white hairs will grow whichever way they please, and it starts with only a few)
“Ah, that’s gonna be my bad knee”
“I don’t know why I have a sore spot there it just comes and goes”
“Dental repairs cost how much?” and suddenly brushing and flossing will be a second hobby
Tinnitus, but not like severe. Just once in awhile and often enough to keep you guessing like once a month or so.
“There was a pop but I don’t know where.”
“Oh my god I’m turning into my parents”
That sudden silence followed by a minutes tinnitus every couple of months is the weirdest thing.
Wtf, I thought that was just me. Although it happens less ever since I lost some weight, so my guess is it’s BP related.
To anyone trying to cope with minor permanent tinnitus know it gets better. When I first realized I had it at 23 I pulled neurotic worrying self pity card, a year later and its just another part of life like that weird occasional ache in your back. I dont notice it 90% of the time and put on a fan or yt video the other 10%. There’s a definite psychological toughness factor to it as you go from “oh man I really really really hope this goes away in a month I dont want this the rest of my life to " oh well could be worse better stop with the loud music and excessive drinking/smoking.”
If I ever have kids of my own I’ll make sure to let them know not to blair shit into their ears for years straight and take hearing protection seriously
Young people have a left knee and a right knee. Middle aged folks have a good knee and a bad knee. Old folks have a bad knee and a worse one.
My bad knee is now titanium and my good knee has become my bad knee.
From Mad Magazine. You know you’re old when you skip the game highlights and start videotaping painkiller ads.
I must be old because I remember Mad Magazine AND videotapes!
And the biggest surprise: new hair starts to grow out of nowhere in the nose and ears.
I have tinnitus all the time thanks to earbuds. Nobody ever told me it could damage my hearing.
It’s usually on the packaging.
It was in the 90s and early 2000s when I sold photo/video kit.
Yeah, in tiny print on the back of the packaging.
I was raised in cult that told me the world was going to end when I was still a child. I was never supposed to hit teenagerhood, and here I am in my 40s.
I hit 30 this month. Damn. I don’t feel too much different than my 20s though.
The quote the great khaki cuffs,
“I recently realized I probably won’t die young so I can start planning for my future or something, investing wisely, making sure I’m okay”
haha yes
