You come to realise that you just don't need half of the crap, the Capitalism is trying to sell you.

About two hours ago I had a crackin comment to put in some alehouse thread or other, then I got to doing stuff.
Now - gone.

My complete lack of shîts given has impressed me tbh. Stuff I used to stress over barely registers now and I find myself just telling folk to either shut up or koff rather than listen to their BS.


It's great

I can imagine this is a good part about being old. But the ages of 40 up to whatever the retirement age is can koff as far as I’m concerned

I’m quite negative about the whole thing. I turned 40 recently and haven’t come to terms with it yet. I feel like a young man in an old mans body.

I went through a rough patch around the same age mate.

You do come to terms with it.

Yes mate, it’s so liberating not giving a hoot. It makes you look back and think why was I even arsed about that /them

I find the telling them I'm not arsed particularly satisfying

The first time I realised I had started the process of becoming ‘old’ was when I was 28.

We had a work experience girl who was 16. I was helping her with a mundane task she’d been assigned. Tried to make some small talk - she was going to a festival in a few weeks and her favourite band were playing.

“Ah cool, who are they?”

She just looks up at me and says “You wouldn’t know them”. She viewed me as old and uncool. How dare she.

I asked the bands name and to be fair to her she was right. Never heard of them.

Its the philosophy of stoicism. Only giving a flying one fir things that are in your power to control or influence. Marcus Auralius had a lot to say on the matter. I'm all for it.

Then what happened mate?

I checked the band out on YouTube and thought they were gash. This only confirmed that I am indeed, getting old.
