At some point, you’ll never have a completely pain-free day.
Your after-insurance medical expenses will rise and become significant.
One day you’ll hurt yourself performing athletic feats such as “getting out of bed” and “getting up off the floor”.
Sore muscles which used to heal in a day will take 2-4 days.

Have fun.

I constantly want to tell my 13 year old son about the magical era of the 90s in which a president was impeached for lying and you could still use a phone card at a payphone to make call after you got a page on your beeper. *911 party at sleve bobson Dugnutts*

I had my first actual cracked heel. Did you know they hurt??? From ads, I just thought they were unsightly or annoying. But it hurts! It's also taken like 2 months of moisturizing and pumicing to grow out. gently caress that.

Also when I turned 34, suddenly like overnight, my skin became dry all the time. I thought it was just the heat in winter, then I thought it was the AC in summer, but now I guess I actually have to moisturize? Like my arms and everything?? Sounds like bullshit imo.

I was always the music guy who knew most all the new stuff and always found something exciting coming out almost every week. Now, having a young child and pushing 40 the decline in my listening time and effort to seek new artist plummeting makes me sad but at the same time apathetic, if that makes sense.

You just slow down, less time listening, but still discover new for the same average time listened. So maybe you get to discover something new every year or five. I discovered Decalifornia this year.

Being regular is good, I can't ever seem to get regular even with diet change and daily fiber supplements :( if only colon blow was real.

I'm 41 and am fit and have low body fat. I just get running injuries more often these days. I've been diagnosed with athletic heart, which is a thing where lots of cardio and being 6'6" has made the heart muscle thicken up and it beats at about 32bpm. It has no negative effects except doctors get worried when they look at ECG results. I recently got a rowing machine so I can keep going when I pick up running injuries and keep the upper body in shape as I get older. I eat vegetarian and cook all my own meals, watching portion sizes. I feel healthy, I have energy, and still have all my hair. It's not so bad

i think the hangover thing is like 50% the physical aspects of aging and 50% the vastly increased scope of responsibility you have as you age

Drunk at 21 - can sleep in till 4pm the next day then have a mindless job and some optional/low pressure study the following week/month/year

Drunk at 41 - maybe a quick sleep in till 9am but then kids/house/pets/cooking/cleaning and then an intense week of a mentally demanding job and paying bills and being an emotional/practical decision maker for your family plus gotta pay the mortgage and maintain healthy relationship with wife remember to exercise and not eat junk or drink too much coffee and post post post etc etc

This guy gets it. If you don't use it, you literally lose it, muscle mass is steadily lost and the belly gets bigger and bigger. And fat, unfit people tend to be inactive so get bored and unhappy.

It doesn"t have to be a harsh regimen. Just "eat a bit less, eat a bit healthier, walk a bit more" has helped me.

Exercise and eating healthier helps with lethargy and depression too, though some of you are apparently suffering severe spiritual maladies, the ennui in many cases probably a natural consequence of years of negativity and trying to solve every problem with the power of thought alone. I've been there. Maladies which in many cases can be recovered from. Let go. You alone can do it but you can't do it alone. Seek the Light and accept it into your heart. :)

She wrote very detailed descriptions of her experiences...
I haven't had sex in a year and a half.

The crazy part, though, is that I don't even mind!

My 12yr old son has an old soul. He complains of aches and pains like you old geezers, it's hilarious.

I'm coming up on 43 and feel like I'm been around for 43 centuries. I guess that is partly because of life experience maybe, done quite a bunch of different things and jobs. Feels like I'm my 4th or 5th "life", if you know what I mean, not just career.

My lower back can't handle standing still washing dishes at home for 20mins. But heaving bags of quikcrete, packing lumber all day or other labor is ok? I don't understand how that works.

My body has been wanting more fruit and veg, over carbs or protein, but I still consume wayyyyy to much sugar. 36oz of soda a day is probably nothing for most folks, but if I go over that I feel fat.

One or two visits to a physiotherapist might fix it, did wonders for me.

Haha, no, I'm a Pepsi addict for sure. I love me a nice cola with ice, it's how I get my fix. It's my coffee in the morning, my treat after dinner, kind of like a fine wine. I've just got a guilty conscience about enjoying it TOO much.

I never developed a taste for alcohol or eat snack type foods very often, but If I don't have my can of Pepsi during the day, all hell breaks loose. :bahgawd:

Oh yeah, I will sing the praises of physical therapy to anyone who will listen. A few years ago I was having debilitating shoulder pain and getting more and more restricted range of motion, and my doctor was talking about surgery but wanted me to try physical therapy first. Halfway through the first screening my physical therapist was like "it's your rotator cuffs, but I still need to do these other tests, but it is definitely your rotator cuffs." A few months later of physical therapy sessions and moderately consistent exercises at home and my shoulders were fine, and have stayed pretty much fine since.

I'd bet it’s not because you’re standing still for 20 minutes, but because you’re standing very slightly bent over for 20 minutes.
