        I hated being young. I do miss being able to take drugs and party all night without having a care in the world the day after tho. Responsibilities and age. Life. Would I change anything if I could? No. Would I do it again if I was young? No.

          If you ask people what age they’d like to be again if they could, no one ever says 16-18.

            That's definitely a tough one.  I'm not that old so I don't have many years to choose from but there are positives and negatives to all.  When you're a kid you aren't in real life which has it's benefits and downfalls.  20's you have your youth, independence, but most likely are limited financially, and lack some life experience/wisdom.  30's (so far) you still have some youth, are independent, stronger financially which opens doors, have gained some wisdom, but also don't have the youth of your 20's, and most likely have a fuller life plate with many more responsibilities (which can be good and bad).  For those older I'm sure they can enlighten me on the next few decades to come.

              It's all downhill after 21, @BloodnThunder  😃

              And for all those guys who are enthralled by their own wonderfulness and insist the kindly old snowtop precede them through the door-you can fuck right off. If I needed any shit from you I'd squeeze your head.

              Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
              Well, I have others.

                At 66 I just might be the oldest one hanging around on The Forum. So I'm not getting old,lets face it I am old,at least chronologically. I work out as hard as I can as often as I can,and people tell me they can't believe my age,to which I reply "Just trying to stay ahead of the curve" I'm with Giles in that I don't give a fuck as to what people think about me. I still ride a motorcycle and can still play drums albeit both a little slower. Like a lot of you I love to drink good beer and other spirits,but am no longer willing to pay the price of excessive consumption. A friend said to me if you ever wake up and nothing hurts,you're probably dead.

                  I'm growing irritable in my declining years.

                      At 55, I have an ever increasing intolerance to disconnected conversation between friends/family. Drives me nuts when people don’t address in their response the points raised inmediately before…or worse, completely change subjects and ignore your recent comments. This happens even when the topic being discussed was brought up by them.

                      Not sure whether conversations were ALWAYS like that and I just didn’t notice it due to youth. Sometimes I tend to think it may be influenced by attention deficit in pur modern multitasking lives.

                      The journey is the objective.

                          I think you nailed it man. We have more information available than ever before and can connect more easily to more distant and diverse people more quickly than ever before, yet we seem to have less knowledge, wisdom, empathy, and time for focusing on tasks and objectives, much less on one another, than ever before.

                          Think it, be it.

                            learned or correct way 2 frame it is actually believe all those old golden rules actually apply in real life and that i appreciate all that happens cause i learn from it

                            not so focused on myself as i was in my younger days as i start 2 value my functioning dysfunctional relationships and nothing is more important than my relationships with my friends and family.

                            super annoyed with salt and pepper pubes though, right @Matty123
