I'm 24 and still at university
Undergrads think I'm old

Or at least an adult
Which earns them a baffled "wot"

Dont worry in a week they will tell us all was testrun and next thing you know you wake up january first in the year 2000.... I bet by what will subjectively appear to be 6 months, many will wish they could just be 20 years older again, instead of having to sit through the whole damn mess once more  :D, crushed by witnessing their limited ability to change.

Waking up in 2000 and watching the clock tick towards to 2020... the cruellest nightmare

Im in the first half of my 30's. Look like in mid 40's thanks to a few years of caveman lifestyle. Have the mindset of a 70 something.

Being raised by my grandfather and grandmother migth have something to do with the last part.... anyway I digress... what was I saying?

I registered 8 years ago.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

2000

Oh hey! The year my dog and grandpa died, we moved to a place with no social life for me, my dad cheated on my mom, and I hit puberty!

That'll be fun to go through again.

I'm also early thirties. I get regularly mistaken for a Zoomer or, even worse, a highschool student. Sometimes, by high school students who are shocked, just shocked, that I have in fact finished college. Despite this, my close friends tell me that I have "old man" energy.

I attribute this to being short and talking like a walking meme factory (first part) and also being very grumpy (second part), but who knows. I'm ageless, I'm ageing slowly.

This forum is about as old as me.

You're about my age then! I thought you were in your 20s or something.

The trick is to only make predictions semi-seriously.  That way, I don't have a 98% failure rate. I have a 98% sarcasm rate.

Because without age, we could not become wise.
