I hear this question being asked more frequently
Made breakfast this morning. Now my wrist hurts.
Damn. I made tomorrow and tonight’s dinner. My back is fucked.
Good news: burgers+fries were tasty and I’m looking forward to the shepherd’s pie tomorrow.
Like a pro!
And sneezing then having a pain in your back from it.
The solution to this is to make breakfast in the afternoon 👍
Your living expenses increase far more than your pay
These are all cute, but when you start to lose your balance just turning your head or with basic movements, you really start to feel old.
It’s only a matter of time before you start falling.
Once you start falling, you start dying slowly
You don’t feel older mentally, but your body starts to betray you. I don’t mean stuff like your legs aching after getting up when sitting on the floor, or getting tired easier; it’s the subtle things that really are irritating. Like taking longer to learn something. Getting fatter even though you don’t really think your diet is bad. Taking longer to find that word you can’t think of or the name of that person, movie, place, whatever.
The irritations that add up are the ones that you don’t really expect, not just the ones you do like needing glasses.
Then there’s “time.” Fucking day goes too quick. Used to be you felt like you could get all kinds of shit done in a day. Now? Run two errands and half the day is gone. Wtf.
Also, “lasts”.
You start to realize that there are things approaching that are the last time you’ll see or do something. The last time you visit where you grew up. Last time your kid lived at home. Last car you’ll ever own.
Yeah, the lasts suck.
The weight gain is really the big sign shit is going down hill. I’ve been making a series of changes since about age 35, and each time the new diet or exercise routine works for like a year or two and then the weight slowly creeps back up. At this point I literally ride a bike 200 miles per week and I will still gain weight slowly if I eat breakfast. It makes no sense.
It sucks. I like breakfast! On the bright side, two cups of coffee and I am not hungry for the next two hours and by then it is almost lunch time so I guess it works out. Brunch it is!

I remember being in college, and this Onion article gave me a little bit of an existential crisis.
Ouch
The hairdresser asks if he needs to do your eyebrows.
The Baz Lurhman’s Sunscreen Song is correct in every way.

The realization that I may never live to see capitalism collapse
Gray pube.
Every fart is a gamble
Not replying to as many of these types of posts is one of them
I don’t enjoy gaming anymore
I still do but I just don’t have time for any serious gaming, so it’s only quick or indie games for me. But I think I could see myself get back into an MMO or something when I’m retired.
I don’t enjoy live service games or multiplayer PVP anymore.
I’ve elevated to single player only experiences or PvE only
I don’t think that’s a age thing.
My age keeps increasing.
Do you have to calculate it now though? I have to go let’s see, I was born in the year… It used to be innate knowledge.
These kids on my fucking lawn, dawg…
all my friends are either dead or my enemies
