Thirties

[K3V]

Nowhere to do that around here.

You're in New York fucking City and claiming there's nowhere to go see a punk show?

Dancing is hot.

my hangovers are disasters. even if i'm not sick, i'm just physically wiped out.

Same here. I also seem a lot more succeptable to cigarette smoke as well. Usually now if I go out and don't drink, but am around smoke I can usually expect to feel like I have a chest cold the next two days. I'm two months from 30 and nobody believes it. Head full of hair (tho I'm sure by 40 it will all be grey like my dad had happen to him, still a headful though) and still my college weight. It's only when I don't shave for 3 hours is when people know I'm older. Fucking wolfman facial genes.

Awesome thread. I think Doc nailed it. Hell, I'm already thinking about retirement.

I'm with you guys on the hangovers. That shit just wrecks me for a day now.

Other than that, I'm greying, but I've been greying since HS so that's nothing new, and the hair is thinning a bit. But nothing too bad. I'm thinner than I have been in the last 7-8 years and getting thinner. And no one here seems to be able to tell I'm near 30, but that ain't saying much since they gauge the age of white people about as well as white people gauge the age of asians.

I just turned 30 but my body started seeing the signs shortly after 28, so I feel like mentally I've turned 30 for a while now. I can agree with Doc and have that the common denominator in the benefits of getting older (i.e. more confidence, more money, more wisdom) all seem to be rooted in the fact that men think less and less with their dicks as they age.

Ironically, that's because we're past our sexual peak of 17-18. Go figure.

[Dyne]

Speak for yourself. I'm hornier now than I've ever been.

[Gooch]

Oh, I agree. I never said you get less horny, you just let it affect your thought process less.

Good thread, I love to bitch about being old. I'll be 34 this year and it's pretty much what I expected.

Luckily I haven't lost any hair, and it looks like I won't any time soon, but the weight gain is definitely noticeable. I'm starting to get the old guy paunch and have to really bust my ass to keep it under control.

My hearing is nearly gone from years of playing in bands, I've got wicked tinnitus. I always hated ear plugs and I'm paying dearly for it now.

I seriously can't drink at all anymore, two beers and I'm snoring on the couch.

My back is jacked up. I can only sleep in one position and only for 5 to 6 hours at the most.

The biggest change though is I willingly got married and had a kid last year. Honestly, it was the greatest thing to ever happen to me. I was burnt on living like I was still 19 and I welcome the added responsibility and stability. It also doesn't hurt that my wife is seven years younger, is super hot and makes nearly double what my salary is.
