This is a thread for ILXors in their 30's!!! yo yo yo breakdancing etc...

34. Preferred 33 when I was the age of Christ when he died. Everything seemed to be looking up then

As Tom Lehrer once said, “when Mozart was my age, he had been dead for four years”

if i only live long enough to prevent any cunt making a movie half as bad about me itll be enough

feel like I may have committed the Whiney generalization where he was claiming to be "nearly 40" at the tender age of 36 now

wait a second, i'm nearly 36
that means i'm nearly 40

i should buy a sports car

make sure it has a spoiler that is exactly as big as your desperation

39 today. Don't know that i am ready to be 40 next year

Do you still yo yo yo breakdance a lot?

happy birthday!

Don't think i could without slipping a disc.

Thx!

happy 39th neanderthal! i am going to catch up to you some day.

Also, HB! :)

36, the first year that i've actually felt some anxiety about getting older, and even feel somewhat "old"

im in mid 30s limbo ever since i cant limbo

Happy 39th Neanderthal. Didn't know we were the same age. I can't fathom how I got to this point myself

Happy Birthday, Neanderthal Man! Don't sweat yr 40s, folks, once the dementia fully kicks in its nothing but smoooooooth...ssssssomething...

I turned 30 this year, so far so good, very relaxing.

33 1/2 now

I sorta fret about the fact that most weeks follow the same pattern, I have two kids so it's hard to get out of the 'routine' I have. but I have a house I like, a job I like, kids that I like, good beer in the fridge...I guess this is the life I wanted 10 years ago

Why would you want anything other than a routine

otm

routine with lots of good meals and holidays

everyone in their 30s when this thread was started is now in their 40s

a job you like holy shit what's your secret?

honestly, a lot of luck

Happy birthday, Neanderthal! Death to the Cro-Magnons!

oh I feel pretty lucky to be eating. Like though? good work. happy 30s everybody!

35 this week. I can't believe how fast my 30s are going. I don't feel any different from when I was 28.

got all the hair retention genes & am still effectively 12

I am feeling my age. Degenerative disc in neck acts up a lot, taking blood pressure meds, cholesterol borderline. Tired often.

Metal shows tho i de-age 15 years

90 mins on a full pitch tonight and drank the young fellas off to bed afterwards, age is just a number but bmi as pertains to ability to soak alcohol is a core truth

30 yrs, 7 mos coming up in a few days. Feel honored to be the same age as silby.

Where I am now is not something I could have predicted. I have a partner I love very much, a job I hate very much, and I live in a city that I am sick of.

I gained 15 pounds in 2019. Don’t look my best, but I’m finding I care less about my appearance in my 30s. I used to be really vain.

K back to retirement

Oh yeah—over the past year, i started finding gray hairs in my beard. Wtf

I have one solitary grey hair in my beard

I'm 36 in June and get paranoid with every new bodily twinge that it's the start of some permanent decline instead of a passing ache. I definitely drink less now. Ever since I turned 30s, I seem to get hangovers at the drop of a hat, and brutal ones at that--the kind where sitting up makes me vomit from migraines. I can still manage a cocktail or two if I ate right before, but that's about it. I started smoking grass at 30 (boy, if only those DARE stories about the easy availability of drugs had been true at my high school) so I haven't missed drinking much, to be honest, except for the social aspect.

Without school or a job that lends itself to socializing, I am increasingly aware of the difficulty of making new friends (I only have a handful due to changing social circles etc), and honestly afraid about becoming an old man with no support system. Guess I gotta find a hobby that gets me out of the house.

Posting here while i still can

why hello, fellow kids!

There's a guy at work who would have been 9 when this thread started. He's got a beard.

I'm a few weeks shy of 36 but I got ID'd today, so that was nice

i am going to be 32. my twenties feel like they basically didn't happen, such a blur.

so much was spent on ilx.

think of the last decade of yr nineties when its just you and idk crut and tabes and silby and idk who else round here

Louis, unless he gets a comical posho disease like gout or fatty liver and dies at 58

Thrown from a polo horse godforbid

God bless him but someone will get him before even then id say

My last year of my 30s, I'm sure I'm really gonna make the most of it this year

Ive got four-odd months which through the covid lens is more like simultaneously ten mins of actual craic worth and ten years ito how long its gonna feel like

I'm a few weeks shy of 36

Sup.

think of the last decade of yr nineties when its just you and idk crut and tabes and silby and idk who else round here

I’m a poster for life, I don’t give a fuck

I’m 37 btw
