    Holy shit, I’ve accidentally stumbled upon a cure for aging. I was born in 1984, yet I’m somehow only 40 years old.

    • The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Or maybe everyone from 1998 stumbled upon the exact opposite.

      I just turned 100 last month, it’s fuckin awesome, I can fly now, only like for a mile, but everything I need is within a mile radius, so I’m saving Soo much on fuel and parking.

      • tamal3@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Everything you need is within a mile? Please accept me as your roommate. It takes me 20 minutes just to drive to the store, then 20 minutes to get home. I want a city.

        Sorry I got stuck on the wrong part of that fantasy ;) I would also like to go flying.

    You younglings won’t understand, but after about age 35, your brain filters out this kind of math and you won’t notice the meme is wrong.

    source
    • ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net ⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      There was a article where the journalist asked a dozen people how old they felt, versus their actual age.

      And every single person said they felt in their heads, 10-20 years younger. Like, a 54yo said they felt more like they were 35yo.

      I’m hitting forty and I feel like I just understood what life is about, something I should have felt in my mid20s.

      source

        I feel 10 years older, so obviously I’m doing something.

        Is this called a sink in the US? I thought the kitchen sink and the bathroom basin are the correct names, but might be UK specific…

      The worst part is knowing you can’t afford to and yet being forced to watch your elderly parents/friends who might be able afford to but can’t because of their health and/or the need to save their money for assisted living (which gets more and more expensive each year).

      I’m not suicidal, but as I watch my parents age I think I will be. I have known several recently deceased who were miserable for the last couple of years of their lives. People who if they had been pets, we would have euthanized. It’s sobering and depressing.

        screenshot of the film The Big Lebowski, with Jeff “The Dude” Lebowski sitting on the toilet while one of Jackie Treehorn’s thugs (Mark Pellegrino) holds a bowling ball. The subtitle reads “Obviously you’re not a golfer” but “a golfer” is covered by impact outline meme text saying “using base-six numbers”.
