When you realize you're not a kid anymore and almost 30

23. I was 16 yesterday, what happened? I looked at the mirror this morning and didn't recognize myself.

this

What's up early retirebros?

I don't think i will pass from the 30s.

Given the rate of technological advancement, vain Boomers, and unethical Chinese researchers, it's likely there'll be serious anti-aging treatments on the horizon when your 40s roll around.

>tfw you realize you are too old to be here, but you can't leave

>wasnt sentient in a less poz'd era
34yr old boomer here, youll learn in time

I mean I kill myself before reach that age. It is pointless to life after 30 year. Your mind and body are decline and can't find pleasure in nothing.

You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.

No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

I didn't think I would live past 20's nor did I want to.
I pussed out on killing myself.
30 Still have nothing to lose.

>Can't find pleasure in nothing
This is the unironical truth

fuck you

>tfw turned 30
>tfw very overt divide in peoples lifestyles

Here's the summary

1. Couple get married (or dont) and have kid(s). They form little groups with other couples with kids.

2. Guys who stay single/fuck buddies/short term/non-committal. No kids. Do whatever they want. Group 1 and 2 no longer associate because of the huge discrepancy in priorities (work/providing vs hedonism/selfishness)

3. Girls who are trying to get married and have kids, usually hang out with 1, but they have to date and fuck 2.

4. Girls who dont want kids, usually hang out with 2 and 3.

5. Couples who dont want kids or dont have them at the moment. Hang out with 1 and 3.

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking

Racing around to come up behind you again.

The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

It must have been so weird having been in a trench for months, the line not moving, then everything goes silent.

And you're just in some farmer's field.

And the horrific sniper nest and the ridge thousands of men died trying to take and that one unreachable boulder in no man's land that you saw a bird once sit on, all of it's now just a short peaceful stroll away.

Tfw when my life has done nothing but improve as I’ve gotten older

So in summary:

>Single people hang out with single people, except single girls who want to settle down hang out with relationship people too.
>Relationship people hang out with relationship people.

you best shut the fuck up

Wow

>Truth has to be all complicated and long winded

this is why youre an unsuccessful brainlet faggot
youre an idiot, and you cant change that, nothing you will do will make your brain better at functioning

>>Truth has to be all complicated and long winded

The greatest truth is the life one lived......and regretted.

I was marathoning a youtuber thinking he is 7 years older than me or at least my age but he turned out to be 7 years younger than me. I stopped watching his videos and YouTube altogether

technically speaking, a truth is absolute, meaning it does not exist relative to anything else, as such you cant have a greatest Truth or least greatest Truth because that would mean that the Truth in question is being measured relative to something else, which would be an impossibility.

26, was also 16 yesterday. Life is a blur, I should've done less drugs I think

kek, people,like you are interesting. The ones who progressed through life without hitting a tree. It’s just stupidly good luck, but you unconsciously yearn the trials of becoming a man. Enduring hardship. You have the right idea, throwing yourself in a setting stripped of familiarity is sure to grow you. As would surviving in a foreign country or in the woods.

>tfw went through a really insane teenage few years that basically turned me from a boy into a man so now im older and all the normies wanna 'challenge' themselves i just wanna chill and enjoy the life i wasnt guaranteed to have

like everyone wants to go skydiving and travel the world on a motorbike, like i feel like gambling the gift of life im so lucky to have, just so i can brag about it on normiebook? nah fuck that im not that retarded

What were those career goals that you managed in 6 years?

Same

It took a long and excruciating 30 years to get here. Didn't exactly miss any of that suck time.

school, work, sleeping, video games, go outside from time to time

thats about it

>When you're nearly 40 and have been on Jow Forums for so long you became middle aged.

Just fuck my shit right up sempai. Give it time, 30 is gonna feel like a dream soon enough.

and here we have it people nietzsches death of god right on time

>still feel like a kid
>still look like a kid
>people trying to give me adult responsibilities
Fuck this shit, it isn't fair. I didn't develop right, fuck off. Nothing about me is adult, I can't have an adult life.

At this point I'm enjoying watching things crash and burn, especially if it was something that deserved it.

>I wasn't always liked this, what the fuck happened?

Your brain chemicals are fucked up, I was depressed 25-30 and I'm way better now after 30.

>30 yo boomer
>didn’t experience a single death of relatives/friends
How bad it is user?

I had 2 good friends from highschool die of heroin overdose. It's... w/e. They were both good guys and super interesting dudes, but they had very fucked up life situations they were brought up in.

i still feel like i belong here. but i feel out of place on /v/ and Jow Forums. zoomer central

20yo here, how do i not end up like OP?

Just turned 29. Everything is fine: the best thing is to give up false youthful aspirations and live authentically, without remorse, without unwanted pressures. Youth is wasted on the young. I prefer to lapse into cozy senility. It's already happening.

Work my 9 -5, cash in the bank. Don't say hi to coworkers. Eat out with my wife. Eat out my wife. Watch only good films, make some lewd art. Sleep in on weekends, night drives in my old car. Plan next year's bean garden. Rake leaves.

Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time

Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way

The time is gone, the song is over thought I'd something more to say.

best linkin park song desu

Its odd, didnt really seem real, I never thought any of my close friends would really die. I mean we hung out weekly for almost 20 years, went on so many trips together, worked jobs together, partied together, ran a small business together seeing each other daily for years. Playing through so many games together. My best friend without fail would pop by on holidays and my birthday to go party and Id do the same for him. We all had other friends/acquaintances but it was very different, we were always super close and never wanted more friends in like our tight circle. We could discuss anything, no one ever fought with each other, we'd joke about and share secrets of our acquaintances and kept each others secrets. I could hand them thousands of dollars in cash to hold and theyd return it. I honestly cant imagine ever gaining friends like these, so when my best friend passed it was kind of like part of my childhood gone. He has the other side to so many storys. Its really impossible for me to even imagine getting a new friend and spending that much time with someone ever again to build that level of trust/friendship. I was the best man at his wedding and always thought he'd repay the favor one day.

31, 6 year NEET and still going strong. I’m living the life I want to live I think, so it’s all time well spent

Youth is wasted on the young because the old have forgotten how to live

your only talking about some intellectual concept. in reality, the only truth is you and your experience. as life emanates out from the center it gets farther away from the truth. if there is an objective truth outside of subjective experience, humans might never get to know/experience it. maybe nirvana but who knows about that.

what happened to your friend

Time by Pink Floyd is a great song to listen to on shrooms or acid

shit, sorry forgot to mention, diagnosed with cancer, passed away a couple months later, it was just aggressive and surgeys didnt work.

That hit me so hard user. Thanks for sharing.

Wtf does your generation find funny?

This is BIZ you fucking normies, Get the fuck real and take this to B.

I’m 26 and feel like K wasted 2014-2017, I don’t think I advanced at all. Just did enough to get by at home and stopped right there. I remember 2010 when I went to college like it was yesterday. Now I’m almost a decade removed. wow

It suddenly hit me that I have to make every day count because youth is finite. And I’ve watched too much of mine slip away without making enough of it. Working retail wagecuck and Socking away $100 a week in ETH/BAT so I can finally one day soon get the hell out of my moms house.

To be a millionaire by 50 is still young. You have 20 years. Hop to it user.

you'll feel exponentially worse when you grow old by yourself while your friends have a family. they're investing in their future while you're not.

Bump

desu life really does begin at 30. I decided it's time to grow up and met someone. Now we're 4 years married with a kid and i just bought a house. Doing boomer shit like cutting trees down and renovating the kitchen is satisfying as hell. If i met my 23 year old self i would gut punch him

Teach me your ways master

I hope one day, you might just see him again user. I’m only 19 and have two very close friends like you described, I can only hope to die first, as selfish as that is

you can go fuck yourself

I'm 22 but I'm so uninterested in everything that sometimes I forget my own age.
I wish I could be able to drive without being nervous about it.

A war, a prison sentence, and a lot of bleary eyed nights staring into an LCD matrix defined my 20s. My 30s will probably be more of the same.

Trust me user, you'll be asking this question much, much harder when you turn 300.
Your life has barely begun, so relax and stop panicking.

Damn user I don't wanna live until I'm 300. If the tech exists that means we're basically machines by then, and that means they have backdoors in my brain and can hack me and gather data about me even easier than they do now.

Well if we're going to get technical there are multiple ways you could extend life that wouldn't involve machinery.
In fact it's even possible to do while staying 100 percent organic (it involves some genetic alterations we can't do yet and periodically replacing body parts as they wear out, like parts in a car).

Though in all honestly the most likely way is nanotech, in which case despite it being synthetic there is absolutely no outside signal or 'hacking' possible. You've got to understand that these nanobots would be too small to have something like that in them, they would be designed to operate more or less like organic cells, reacting to chemical signals and such, not operating on anything advanced enough to be hacked.

TLDR your fears are unfounded, it's unlikely that life extension would necessitate hackable machinery be installed into your brain or body.

>1 in 1,000,000,000+
>Thinking anybody gives a shit about you

cringe

after 30, we spend our whole lives wishing we were just 10 years younger....

You fags need to nut up. Stop acting like soft women worrying about a few wrinkles. Im 29. I work a shit job. I wasted college and opportunities. Im learning how to trade for a living so i can get away from the commie normies and progressives. I just want a simple 20th century life away from all this technology people who believe in progress.

>be almost 30
>every person i come across from my highschool has turned into a colossal fuckup
>one friend got into a car wreck and fucked up his spine
>best friend is now on drugs dodging child support
>girl i used to have a huge crush on now has 3 kids by different dads and got fat
fucking bizarre how everything’s turned out.
im just now getting started with a career and it feels like im way ahead of most of the kids i grew up with.
kind of worried that im due for a major fuckup soon to end up like everyone else.

By 30 the disparity becomes very obvious. Most just become bog average, which makes sense, average = most. Then some are below, like the guys who become criminals and junkies. Then the others who become successful in their own way.
