I’m ready.
Turning 35 this year
Shh! Quiet everyone!
…
I can almost make out the words…
I dreamed how great I could achieve, but found out I am an ordinary person and it’s hard to manage my life. Now I admit how mediocre I am.

a kid born in the 90s or someone who was a kid in the 90s (born in the 80s)
I’ve always considered it the latter.
Same. It’s about 90s culture, isn’t it? I was born in the early 90s, I didn’t consciously experience a lot of 90s things. My formative years were the 00s, therefore I’m not a 90s kid.
I thought it was about having almost 100 baby goats
I’m already 43 so I guess someone born in the 90s
Fun fact: if you were born before 1990, your birthday is closer to West Germany becoming a sovereign country than it is to today.
But the kid gets away but we won’t get away from time.
I didn’t need this today…
Hey, at least you’re not the cow in the hoist.

The Wife says she finds me sexy.

Too late
How do I express anger via upvote?
Meh.
As an 80s kid, hitting 40 was the best thing that ever happened to me. Shit that used to matter suddenly doesn’t, like you flipped a lightswitch. You get new superpowers, and they’re all bitchy. I recommend it to everyone.
I remember a survey done years ago that people say 30s and 40s are the best years of their lives.
that was probably years ago
It wasn’t that long ago. The survey was conducted 3-5 years ago iirc.
Or you can just smoke weed and drop acid in your 20s like I did, and get over a decade’s head start on not giving a fuck. By age 30 I was no longer worried about every single thing; the substances I took gave me some perspective about how little everything in my life matters in the grand scheme of things.
Seriously, I’m 41 and over the last year I’ve slowed slipped into fuck it mode. Don’t get me wrong, I still have plenty of things I care about, but so many little things I’ve just stopped caring about and my life is so much more relaxed because of it. It’s amazing what hitting 40 can do to your mindset.
Do you have examples of things you don’t pay as much mind to anymore? I am having a hard time picturing that from just the two comments.
Mostly it’s everyday stuff, stuff I used to stress about now I’m like, eh it’ll get done. Social acceptance is another one, I used to worry about people liking me and couldn’t get past it if someone I thought I was on good terms with didn’t like me. Now I worry about that much less, don’t get me wrong I still want people to like me, but if they don’t I can just accept it and move on.
As an example, there was a guy in my office who hated me, I was never anything but nice to him, but he just hated me. The problem was we regularly had to work together on things. In the past I would have been going out of my way to try and get him to like me and find out what it was that he had against me. Now, ok you don’t like me, let’s just keep the interactions professional and to the point, and I’ll just leave you alone the rest of the time.
Basically you just learn to accept yourself and be happy with the good people and events in your life, and learn to just accept and move on from the others.
