I miss my pandemic D&D1 group. It was an 18 year old that just finished high school, two people in their mid 20s in grad school, me in my mid 30s, and one person in their mid 40s. Every once in a while we’d get some interesting generation-gap moments.
1 I don’t even like D&D specifically, but that group really made it work.
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.
The warranty expires as soon as you hit 25.
25 fucked with me mentally, but late thirties is when you actually start breaking down.
Anyone over 25 is a chopped and washed unc, on god.
I’d much rather be considered washed than unwashed, so that’s good
Unfortunately, being washed is unintuitively quite bad.
Around 25 you have to interact with all ages, and everyone starts to blend.
Ouch my neck
I’m in my late 30’s but visibly pass for late 20’s.
Skincare, not-smoking, standing desk & walking everywhere, and avoiding UV by being a fucking perpetual indoor nerd. (My diet isn’t too horrible either but its not great)
I don’t relate to anyone, 20 year olds, 30 year olds, 40+ year olds. They might as well all be aliens. So it doesn’t matter that much.
There’s a reason homie was known as “master”.
