>>151729613you scared me, I thought he was about to retire
>>151729329Most people seem to fear turning 30 as a sign of getting old, but for me turning 25 came with a much stronger realization I'm getting old because it was the first time I noticed fresh young star athletes and actors, who had always been at least a little older than me, were now mostly younger than me. When I turned 30 this year, it was not nearly as much of a realization.
