Yep, now we just make stupid and talentless people famous, ergo the "Cash me outside how bow dah" idiot.
I remember that times too. People were less shallow, obscure, sarcastic, etc. than now.. People worked more on themselves and were more interesting.
What about when a young person asks what's that curly thing on the end of a phone?
What about when a young person asks what is that square thing on ms windows "save" icon? I remember when 1.1 mb (!) disc was a Huge storage, lol. Not even mentioning floppy discs!)) Now my phone alone has 16 gbs and it still is not enough...
Load More Replies...My son asked me why we say "roll down" the window in the car the other day...
Not to mention when a young person doesn't know what Windows 98 is!
I had 4 kids when I was 29! (glad that's over!)
Load More Replies...Im 29...People are getting married and having babies left & right, and im here like "If a Zombie Apocalypse happens, I dont want my kids to suffer, so I wont have any.."
That's not old yet ! You're getting old when you hear the girl you dated in your 20ies became a grandmother....for the third time....
just wait until you're 35 and you will see what it really meant.
Load More Replies...Loud obnoxious parties are overrated. I prefer good conversation, better food and drinks, and minimum cleanup. Don't find those things at loud obnoxious parties.
Yeah!! I am too young too really have had much experience with either kind, but I can tell you I strongly dislike the loud obnoxious kinds
Load More Replies...I like to have parties! I watch movies, eat snacks, and invite all my cats!
Don't party my birthday since I'm 15. just a nice cozy dinner with family and closest friends is the best "bd party" for me
If its true that "the older you get, the wiser you become", why not reverse it so as to really enjoy things when you still have your health?
Think of all the babies, though. Would you really want a baby being smarter than you?
Load More Replies...I'll be 40 in 4.5 months, the thought of being 28 again is heavenly. However, I refuse to hold onto my youth and end up looking foolish.
What's the comment for 29? Or, dare I say, 30? I need some inspiration what to put on my own birthday cake
I'm currently 24 and have only had two driving lessons because although I work full-time I can't afford to run a car and don't have financial assistance :(
Growing older is mandatory, growing UP is optional. I'm a 53 year old pre-teen according to everyone who knows me well!
...also per my son: "why do I have to be the mature one?"
Load More Replies...Hell yeah. I know I'm getting old when I get excited to change dishwasher sponges.
Well, that's a cheery thought. I'm gonna ask my doctor about that the next time I see him.
My dad is 71 and has never had knee/hip problems. I'm 24 and my knees constantly give way and a sharp pain was running through my leg while walking today
As a kid, I never thought of such things, or the fact that Kevin had such a large house, looking back, i wonder what his parents did for a living to afford such a big a*s house!
AND take the whole damn family on vacation! ...minus 1 lol
Load More Replies...When I watched home alone I always had a small thought in my mind saying "How can Kevin's parents afford all this?" Even when I was about 8
heck. I'm I'm in middle school and I have a favorite grocery store
Load More Replies...You're right, actually. Thinking of it, when I was a teenage, hanging on the streets with my friends or crew, I cared about grocery stores more than I do now. Now, I'll just take whichever one is closest to home/work, so I could buy stuff I need on my way home to save time, and I'll hate going anyway.
Load More Replies...30: Why aren't you married? What's with the cats? Why do you appear so happy single? WHAT IS LIFE!?
Sad but true, however, if you wait until your 40s, a lot of those people end up becoming available after their divorce. Or some 50% anyway.
I prefer the 30s pool. Quality over quantity.. Half of the others will get divorced anyway, cz they were too quick to get into marriage..
I'm 22 and feel like my dating pool contains three people I don't like... and no one else.
yes but the dating pool in my twenties looks like someone take a c**p on DC
Don't do that. My grandmother did that for forty years, then she was in the hospital. Haven't heard from her since. :(
No lie, I am 48, and I never even had regular Dr till a couple of years ago, and that's only even now because the VA assigned me one. Up until a few years ago, I could almost count how many times I ever felt the need to go to the Dr on 2 hands.
Tru mark of aging: insted of your parents scheduling your doctor's appointments, you shedule theirs.
For some reason I felt like I was "stuck" at 27 until I turned 37. Now I'm stuck at 37.
Yea when I turned 58 I realized that I was 58. The whole year I was 57, I thought I was 58! So I feel like a k**b that has been 58 for two y
I remember my year as a "k**b" at the Citadel. That was more than enough for me.
Load More Replies...S**t, I would definitely feel that I have no life if I did that. I'm 44 and couldn't bear just watching TV for hours, clogging my arteries up.
They say as we age the eyesight is the first to go; honestly it is the bladder control.
Load More Replies...When I was younger I actually skinned my butt and all the skin came off, I only cried for like thirty seconds. I don't know how I managed that because it seems like having a big chunk of skin ripped off would hurt enough to cry for an hour
As a child my brother jumped off a neighbor's carport roof using an umbrella as a parachute and wasn't hurt at all! However, he denies it to this day! He's now 67...
I'm so old I remember cellphones were things that only existed in Star Trek.
Then having to wait to finish the roll, and then wait to develop the film. Weeks may even pass before you see your pictures!
True.. My brain is always too awake at the time I want to go to bed, so the only way I can get extra sleep is to nap when I get home from work
Load More Replies...My friends tease me for going to bed at 8pm, but I also wake up at 4am, when most of them are drooling on their pillows. Adulting sucks sometimes.
I wish I could go to bed early, but I have anxiety and late at night is when I overthink things, so although I'm exhausted, my brain won't let me sleep and it's horrible.
Worse news is your metabolism has slowed, so that bowl of ice cream is going to cost you.
If you can still eat ice cream your not old yet. You're old when you can't : because too much sugar.
When you look younger than your actual age it's kind of a funny game to play :)
That depends on how well you have treated your body. My best advice..............stay away from Ranger School.
Earth years implies non-earth years are an option...only a baby on Pluto 😉
I'm in between. A text is for hi, how are ya, I'm on my way. A call is for, "they died?" Or, "you're researching ways to off yourself?"
F**k, I'm in my twenties and I've been "I hate texting" since I was a teen.
hate those people who insist they call. Old or young. Like, come on, I have other things to do while I talk to you, I need that hand and a part of my brain.
Tyler you are giving up way too soon. Pick up your backpack (whole you still can) and get out there damned !
I stopped cleaning down there for medical purposes and saw those whities. I don't care if I get skin cancer, those things will never come out ever again!
If you think that's bad Kim, just wait until you reach your 40s, or heaven forbid, your 50s.
And God forbid you don't have children as a middle-aged woman. You Failed at Life!! On the plus side, you have an almost ridiculously strong confidence and are no longer taking s**t from anybody. A fair deal, really :-D
Load More Replies...I'm 24 and fit the description you gave of people in their 30's. I hate being single but get scared when a man asks me out
Nah... I only turn mean when I hear 21-year-olds complaining with "I'm SO tired of being single! I'm ready to get married!" I'm sorry.. what?
Stereotypes. On the contrary, single men in their 30's are considered as: sexy, attractive, mature.
I'm 31, single, and happy. Not bitter and mean. Bitter 30 year olds were bitter 20 year olds too.
Just wait till you get rid of all your social media and don't feel bad about it at all.
The bad thing for me at the moment is I don't want to be involved with anybody who has had children. And the older I get, the less likely it is I will find a single man who hasn't had children
But the older you get any possible children will be adults too. Just saying.
Load More Replies...Honestly, men can get good erections at any age without c**k rings, so why care?
His hand! Ya know, if he's married because manny view marriage as part of growing up?
Load More Replies...I pay $13 for Cypriot cheese at the grocery store on occasion as a little treat. Well, damn.
There is no such thing as expensive cheese. Those cheeses are worth every penny!
Wasted advice also. They don't listen anyway, so best to let them learn from their own mistakes.
But what if you're going back to take some classes in your late 20s? Then it's all of these at once
What if you’re a 50 year old college student?. Haha, she laughed.weakly.
Load More Replies...I had to turn to streaming for oldies because I've always liked music from the 50s and 60s despite being born in the 80s.
oh boy...That is the most f****d up part- when the teenage acne turn into grown-woman acne...
Well what if cotton candy machines qualify as kitchen appliances? Because you use it to make an edible item
I used to marvel at how old the larger trees were. Now missing trees I've known for 40+ years, and guestimating how long the younger trees will outlive me...
Or lucky enough to move out. House prices are so high these days (including renting) that some people have grown up but still live at home (I live with my dad but work full-time doing a very adult responsible job)
Load More Replies...This would have been better to follow up the contrast of "places with neon lights" with in your 30's it's "places with fluorescent lights."
You know you're getting old when even the referees in a soccer game you watch are younger than you.
You know you're old when you hear "Grandma" in a shopping mall and you turn around to answer.
