I'm old. - Page 5

Wasn't talking about you, Rob. You're a funny old geezer like me.

Rob Instigator · 01.23.2008, 05:39 PM

hell yeah

I know what it's like to get caught in a mosh

I've always been somewhat precocious - pretentious, some might say (fuckwits with a chip on their shoulder, predominantly). I've noticed that for the last few years that people tend to be less deriding and somewhat more attentive to the more errant monologues I indulge in. So, by that notion, older is better.

Not that I can really speak, I'm still a whippersnapper.

on topic.

mah, i'm 26 and i honestly don't feel any different than when i was like 17, in some aspects i haven't gotten past age 10!

i hate when people bitch about being old when they are like 23 or even 28, that's stupid! man, i don't even like it when someone is like 40-something and they start bitching about it.

or whatevs.

The soul is born old but grows young. That is the comedy of life. And the body is born young and grows old. That is life's tragedy.

EMMAh · 01.23.2008, 07:26 PM

You're not really old. Too old for eyeliner though

gmku · 01.23.2008, 07:30 PM

Ha ha. Yeah. That's true.

floatingslowly · 01.23.2008, 08:41 PM

GMKU, for what it's worth, thanks to the miracle of the interwebs, I don't ever think of you as being "old".

I guess because I see old as a way of being rather than an age.

The point at which people start saying it, is when they most likely believe it.. and then it can way too easily become an excuse for not living whatever way you might so wish.

"Im too old to do that" *insert ANYTHING here.*

phoenix · 01.24.2008, 12:20 AM

But, I know plenty of "OLD" people who *dont* say it all the time as well.

Perhaps its a rejection of the said person's view of what they should be at their age

i have the utmost appreciation for those on this planet who were born before my time. especially old geezers (you must be at least 70 to qualify as a geezer.) and people in their 30s who for some reason find me amusing, like my mom.
just not when they go around parading the fact like it was sent from god on a fucking stone tablet.
assholes.

I can see that point. I never say that. Thus my flirtation with eyeliner, for instance. Very funny.

gmku · 01.24.2008, 09:17 AM

Some days you just gotta bitch, ya know?

No, actually, I don't think I'm old. As I said, I only started the thread to get Crumby to make me poster of the day again.

ALIEN ANAL · 01.24.2008, 09:25 AM

good

hmm im bored

ChocolateJesus · 01.24.2008, 10:44 AM

Speaking as an older dude that used to be a younger dude, being young pretty much blows, and being older is better, but that blows, too. Happy whatever. I moan constantly about getting older, balding, short term memory loss that may or may not be related to aging, but never would I ever go back to being, say, in high school again. I have much more fun now, I just have to sleep a little more.
