  1. It takes two attempt and a loud exhale to get off the couch

  2. The MILF section on adult sites all look considerably younger than you

  3. Received a text last month: “In 7 years time the 80’s will be 50 years ago”. I laughed instantly because the 80’s were only a few… ah shit.
     

On the bright side you give less fucks about the trivial stuff than before. Now get off my lawn!

Minor correction on #3. In 7 years time, only the year 1980 will be 50 years ago. And it was still culturally the '70s in that year.

When’s something gonna happen?

1993 was 30 years ago…

I still catch myself saying 20 years ago.

I’m not really that much of a movie purist. I really should’ve thought my name out a bit more.

The other day I told an old girlfriend she’s a gorgeous girl. Later on I remembered she’s 35 years old, so it would be more appropriate to say she’s a gorgeous woman. She still appreciated my compliments, so I guess I’m fine there.

Seeing kids use a hand gesture of holding a cell phone with their whole hand to mime talking on the phone instead of the thumb-pinky thing you’d think of or do.

Also, today I pivoted away from my own car as I got close to it with the thought, “That can’t be my car; it’s got a carseat in the back.”

I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently.

A great deal of the references I know are slowly but surely becoming more dated. For example, Justice League one of my favorite animated shows is now 22 years old, which is almost as old as I am.

I’m just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.

Star Wars has 3 eras:The eras are 1977-1983(pre Expanded Universe), (1983-2014) expanded universe or (2014- now) Disney bought version. Each are valid.

Why do people keep using the term “mid”? What’s “No cap”? What is this? I’m only in my twenties but I can’t even keep up with modern slang. (I never used much slang like this in the first place, but still.)

Move along, move along.
