Is 25 old?

[ronboogieon]

It sure as hell isn't new!

I didn't feel old until this past year when I turned 26. Now my joints are getting stiffer, my eye sight is blurring, hearing is slowly slowly going down, my metabolism has slowed a lot, recovery between exercise has decreased, energy levels are lower overall, and my pick up lines have taken a turn for the worst.

Me 26. Sky is 21. She's got the biggest crush on me because I am so 'older.'

I feel you bro. When i'm asked how old I am I first think:

1) Old
2) Fkn old
3) so 1990's
4) 26

Let's just say if you make it to the average age of death then you may be a third to a quarter of your way through your life, so in that sense it may seem like a lot of time has passed.

But remember, the first 12 years of your life your mind was dead and your body was on autopilot then your balls dropped at 13 and you became a teenager. At that moment you gained some cognitive awareness of your place in the world, a small sense of identity and an overwhelming desire to fuck. While your body developed over your teens, and surely your sense of self and perspective on life evolved, the fog of bullshit that exists as a teenager on top of the persistent bias towards thinking with your cock essential choked any fundamental ability for your mind to play a role in your life.

Then enters your twenties. Hopefully your college education and experiences have given you some insight into yourself. Now it is time to get a career and get some real insight into how the world works. Thoughts of tits n ass still diminish reasoning skills, but at this point you have learned that ***** isn't worth everything (this is a start). By 25 you should have a decent sense of self-identity. Hopefully you have learned some humility and understand that you don't know it all, and likely can't predict what you will be in the future or what your future self will value or believe. At this point, you might be just realizing that you aren't going to be rich (and it is ok), that your eyes are bigger than your stomach, that big tits look better than they are, that your parents may have been right about a few things your teenage self was sure they were wrong about and that you still have a lot to learn.

Yes, someone at 25 may be a third into their life, but cognitively, they have just got started. They would be hard pressed to remember half of those 25 years. The next 25 will be a longer, fuller 25 years.

25 is not old.

Oh thank god there is a voice of reason here after all!


My Grandmother passed away two years ago at 98 years old and she didn't complain as much as some of the twenty somethings here.


People! If your really think your body is breaking down that bad at 25 go see a doctor. There is something wrong.

Dam man, on a totally unrelated note I saw your post count is 20,877 in about 19 months! That is 37 posts a day average! Even if you were only on here 4 hours a day that would average to just under 10 posts per hour or one every 6 minutes! You busy busy man lol

What can I say. I like my forum time and have worked to a level that gives me free time at work (I still get all my work done). Oh, and winter gives me loads of opportunity during my off time as well.

My wife was quite convinced for the longest time that I was having some sort of online affair. The fact that I woke her up by laughing out loud several times at 3am (thanks @Ultramaroon ) and some of the avatars (thanks to you too @jawn ) didn't help much.

I forgot to add...my great grandmother (1901-2003) was playing golf at 98. The only thing she whined about was running out of chocolate in the cupboards. These kids

Shit at 34 I squat 345 for reps, deadlift 365 for reps, bench 265 all at 155lbs; I work 12's and average 9-10 miles a shift walking around the ER; just went skiing, and tomorrow I am taking my Ducati M796 for a ride with the old lady on the back for 6-8 hours.

You want a good laugh go and find the thread about people complaining about how hard it is getting in and out of the car.
