They come so fast when you're this old though, a year for OP probably feels like a month for you. Hell, in teenager years he's probably 6 months from death of old age at 103.

Edit: OP please tell us all how weed is now vs the 70's. I stopped smoking years ago but I'd love to hear how the romantic version of what weed you could get then was vs what you can legally buy now is.

Serious post. In a week I'll be 48 and realize I likely have less than 20 Christmas' left , statistically, before I die. How do you feel knowing you may be dead in less than a decade and how do you cope with that?

Did you save properly for retirement like my dad and are looking forward to not having to work at 62? Or are you like my mom and have no retirement savings and will work until she's dead and (likely) pass on all her debt to her children?

Happy birthday old man! A few questions on aging:

Have your childhood idols died or become inhuman monsters?
Do you care less about material possessions as you age?
What was the last concert you attended? (was it too loud?)
Do you miss traveling without 2hrs or more of pre-flight security measures?

And I really don't give a gently caress about my lawn. Go ahead, get on my lawn.

So I know I'm not the oldest goon, but maybe I'm the oldest active goon. Ask your mom if you don't believe me. I used to have a birthday party on IRC when I was still doing the :catdrugs: thing. I'd get a couple sixers of good beer and smoke weed and link dadrock youtubes and bullshit with the yospos and ai and petisland kiddies for most of the night. I dunno if IRC is even still a thing. Anyways, I have a real job now and can't gently caress the whole day away so I'm gonna take a couple hours and do this poo poo instead.

Ask me about being old or whatever.

We used to be neighbors out in Montana, kind of, when I lived in Hamilton. Sorry I never got a chance to bicycle up and check out the Nepeta farm.

I miss Montana, congratulations on turning 61!

Probably the same way you cope with the fact you can die any day for many many different reasons?

I am wearing my :catdrugs: t-shirt today, holy poo poo!

Please take this in the best way but I coulda sworn you were older, my parents are 69 (heh) this year and I had mentally put you in league with them because they had kids real late (I'm 32) and it's perennially weird that there's pretty much an entire generation that my family skipped.

61 ain't poo poo, you got decades left! Congrats and thanks for keeping my cat high as heck for years.

I got a VIC-20 in '83 and a C64 later that year. I remember throwing the computer, 13 inch color TV, 1541 drive, box of 5 1/4 disks into the back seat every month to head to the library for our copy party user group meeting.

He was born in 1955, so he would have turned 18 in 1973, when the main US presence in Vietnam had ended. My father is two years older, and even he would have been too young to have been in the main action in Vietnam.

Hey kids. Fuckin google knows it's my b-day. All the poo poo in the 'about me' link I clicked is empty. gently caress you google.m

Lessee what I missed while snoozing:

old people smell - not that i noticed
death - yeah, poo poo happens. icame to grips with my own mortality long ago.
teeth - six (dental hygene is important boys and girls)
drugs - yeah sure
titties - all titties are good and also your moms
draft - i gave my draft card to some guy so he could buy beer and never got it back. my brother paid a shrink $50 to certify he was gay
racism - i got over it, but holy poo poo it was badly entrenched in society back then
skinny jeans - don't care
childhood idols - dead cowboys mostly. Roy Rogers, Hopalong Cassidy, Davy Crockett, etc. Sky King is buried in a local cemetary.
retirement- my IRA could buy a lovely used car, maybe
material possessions - don't need more stuff. it's just stuff.
last concert - charlie musselwhite at a local club. it was fuckin GREAT.
most disapointed in - tv and politics.
80s 90s - when my kids were born. it was a weird time for me.

e: my eyebrows look like roadkilled badgers and i can braid my ear hair.

gently caress you bitch pass on the right \/\/\/\/

My lower limit is like mid forties.

This is fascinating to me. I always assumed 25-year-olds would look better, no matter how old you get, but at 60, 40-year-olds are the hottest babes out there? Now I know. Closing in on 33, it's still the 25-ish for me.
