Signs that you are getting old...

I feel like I'm becoming Homer Simpson or something. I have this 5 o'clock shadow that's there minutes after I shave. So yeah, inherent stubble is probably the culprit.

For most people, for most things, age is just an excuse.
When they say they're "too old" what that usually translates to is they're out of shape, out of practice, lazy, etc...
Unless you're around 70+ years old, you're probably not "too old" for most stuff.

If I'm bad at something I don't say it's because I'm "too old". I say you know what? I really need to work on that more. Etc...

If there exist 70+ year old female bodybuilders (and they do exist) then what excuse do you have for saying you're "too old" for various activities? They're kicking ass and not letting age stand in their way. What about you?

Really cute pics, Jae.

in b4 you express the same distaste for young uns some years later

Applying for my nearly 3 year old school place.
Cooking another child to bring into the world.
Running and maintaining my own home with my partner.

21, feeling 42.

Are her ears actually pierced at that age?

Congrats, and that would be scary if they are.

Edit: Got accepted to National Young Leaders Conference feeling older.

A sign that i'm growing up not necessarily that I feel i'm getting old, is when I found out a little while back that gamestop no longer carries PS2 games because they're too outdated.

[Cavernio]

That the 90's didn't seem long ago.

Also, usernamegoeshere, I understand what you're saying, however, I disagree with the sentiment that 'oh, you just have to work at it a bit and you'll feel fine, excersise more, don't eat junkfood that society calls junkfood, don't give up so easily' etc.
I've been getting that sentiment from my entire family for the past ****ing 12 years. Only when I ignored what people wanted and expected of me did I push myself to test for everything medical that might be wrong with me, to finally find out that I'm a celiac and probably have been for, oh, longer than those 12 years because it generally takes years for vitamin/nutrient deficiencies to be realized because your body stores so much of them, and/or its been 12 years since my intestines have been so damaged as to let shit into my bloodstream and then all over everywhere else in my body ****ing it up.

*grumble* It's easy when you're young and healthy to think that everyone is usually healthy all the time, and when they're not, its their own dumb fault because good health is simply following the current idea of what a good diet is, and of course you don't excersise enough, so go out there and excersise more...good health just isn't that simple for most people

Also korny, I should lend you my bfs ps2 games for a small fee; I could make a business off of loaning those

[korny]

Except the only games I would play are KH 1&2, as they are the only games worth playing.

[Cavernio]

ewwwww
I never owned a ps2, so I never played kh, but I watched my bf start playing kh2, and it got old before it got good...or maybe he just sucks the life out of every game he plays by being too methodical

As for other things, i still feel pretty young

this.

Gimme 2 days and I look like I haven't shaved for a week... Makes it easy to re-grow my soul patch when I trim it too short.

Her ears are actually stretched to 1/8" tunnels.

There's a thread about feeling old, and I'm getting shit for occasionally mentioning that I'm old? O...kay.
