    I was in my 40s when I finally accepted that grown-ups are a myth.

      If you really want to feel like a grown up, make a Simpsons reference to one of your GenZ coworkers

        I teach nights at a university for my side gig, and I have students this year who weren’t born when the iPhone was released.

    Everyone younger than me is an ignorant child, everyone older than me is a senile fool, and everyone my age is just some dumbass.

    I think both Bilbo and Frodo went on their adventure when they were way into their 50s.

      Bilbo was 50 at the start of the quest for Erebor.

      Frodo was only 31 when he left the Shire.

    We say that the brain is done developing around 25, but I don’t really consider anyone “sensible” until they’re 30.

    I wasn’t really truly sentient until I was like 35.

      And yet I feel like everyone else seemed to have it all figured out except me. Are we all just pretending?

        I have people look up to me and it terrifies me. I do not have it all together people… but then I realise it’s just I have it more together then the currently do.

        So if i can help them get over the next bump in the road, maybe they can get ahead abs help me on my next bump.

        Fumble together.

      Got to be that stress-free lifestyle of having fifty neighbours who talk shit behind your back, being half the size of a wolf’s mouth, and dealing with a local cryptid who worships the goddess of crying. Nobody’s got time for the mumps with all that
