it's amazing how much the general deterioration of your body accelerates post-30, even if you do everything right

it seems like only yesterday I could just skip an entire day of sleep and not feel that bad, now losing even a few hours feels like death

ausgezeichnet posted:I just turned 50 a couple of weeks ago. Report back when you turn 45 - that's when everything starts turning to poo poo. well tbh by the time 45 rolls around for me we'll probably have robot bodies or clones of a younger version of your body with consciousness transfers and poo poo or at the very least jetpacks

Drunk & Ugly posted:whats it like friend? cradle me in your strong 50 year old arms and tell me there is nothing to worry about Honestly the 30's are the best age. Generally, you have stability and some money to spend on important, fun stuff and as long as you aren't burdened by kids you can have a rocking good time before your body starts to gently caress you over. Even the early 40's are pretty cool if you take decent care of yourself. After that, there are too many maladies waiting to attack that it's tough to escape them. I'm actually pretty satisfied and hopeful about retiring some day and working because I want to, not have to. A misanthrope posted:What's it like being so close to death? Do vultures follow you around? No vultures, but the shadow of the reaper is occasionally visible in the corner of my eye. It's not like I'm as old as Genesplicer.

It was a loving lie. Major disappointment.

Sorry about your optimism.

They just suck. Max flight time is less than 30 seconds. Fuel is expensive. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetpack Flying cars have been around a good, long time as well, and we still don't have them in common usage. Good thing, too. I've seen the way most people drive. I'd really wouldn't want them flying over my house. I'm guessing the government is behind the conspiracy to keep us from getting flying cars.

For the love of god also avoid things like tanning beds and going outside without adequate sun protection in your 20s, skin damage is one the easiest way to look older.
