Are you able to sit down without making a noise still?
HUUUEEGHHHHHHHhhh..
The majority of your conversations with friends of the same age have to do with your ailments.
My metric for getting old is this: how big a deal it is if you fall down.
For example, babies, it’s borderline cute. Kids? Sure. Someone in their twenties? Oh no.
Early thirties? Oh shit are you okay? You reach a point where it’s “should we call an ambulance?!?”
The additional way it works is that it also lines with body-health; someone in fantastic shape in their forties can fall and laugh it off, but someone worn out and *physically* old, even at the same age, can fall and have it be a catastrophe.
When I take a green shit
I hear teenager slang and see the way they dress and think “god, that’s dumb”.

By your age?
When I was playing Doom (1993) with my girlfriend, she kept making fun of the graphics or listening to music and being told to listen to something new while blasting Alice in Chains. Her cooch was decent, her taste was shit tho.
I possess exponentially more information
Getting off the floor isn’t a quick event. Sometimes I sleep weird and wake up in pain, then I have to go see my osteo to make the pain go away. It’s a late night if I’m up past 10pm. I regularly google things the kids I work with say so I don’t look stupid when I don’t know what shit means. I could go on, but I won’t. Just know I’m old OK?
Looking at my balls is starting to resemble observing the pitch drop experiment. They are slowly getting closer to the ground.
Friends die off.
People listen less
When I bend down, I need help getting back up. My knees man these knees.
Everything hurts. And what doesn’t hurt, doesn’t work anymore

You start noticing how nice the laundry softener smells…

I empathize with Red Forman more than Eric.
And randy Marsh a little bit lol
For context, I’m only 25. But I already hate all the stuff that “the kids these days” listen to. Good music ended in 2015. Fight me.
I ache in the places where I used to play.
