I don't understand people, I've been old for years now. Once I passed 30 I accepted my oldness.

Fuck that noise. I'll say I'm old when I feel old and I don't yet feel old. Older, sure. But not old.

[–] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Oh no, the brain, too?!

I have used floppies in my life. That automatically qualifies me as old, regardless of how I feel.

Well aren't you lucky with your not feeling old! I bet you dont even make a noise when you sit up, do ya!

[–] teft@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

No, I exercise so that doesn't happen.

I like to say that once you hit 30 you're old, then every 10 years thereafter you get another "really" in front of it. So at 40 you're really old, 50 it's really really old, 60 is really really old, etc. I find it amusing when people argue, to which my retort is that when any of us were ~20 we thought 30 was old, and that hasn't changed in the world...

Well, not me.

We're you dating a 30 year old at 20?

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 months ago

Lol, no. But i only started to think about age around 30.

[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 months ago

I'll consider myself old when I pass the median age for where I live
