      Your reply reminded of the quote from the movie Blow, "Life passes most people by while theyre making grand plans for it"

        You're a young dude, but that's some really good advice you shared.

        I always felt depressed that I wasn't accomplished enough in my 20s which was stupid as hell. You'll always have older assh*les or even some your age who will make you feel that way. And it's usually always from people who had kids way too early or people who went to college and started a career that they absolutely hate.

        That's the irony. They hate they're lives, but try to make you think they have accomplished more because you haven't "experienced" what they have.

        Don't fall for that ****. Live life the way you choose. And **** a lot of women, like my boy Zaroku says.

          Saying that, I have no kids, so I'm basically still 22.
          Time seems likes its going faster every year. We re almost half way thru this year, New years seems like it was yesterday

            If you're around 35, and a male living in the United States, you're about halfway through your life already.

            I have a few more years to go to get to that point, but it's ****ing crazy to think about your ride being halfway over when you're still actively having fun.

            I find myself much more interested in existentialism these days than I did when I was 21.

                  Well, I guess it's good to know that it's not just me at least.

                    Halfway if you're lucky.

                    And this 2nd half ain't gonna be no picnic either.

                    Prostate exams
                    Lower libido
                    Gray hair or hair loss
                    Eyesite or hearing impairment
                    Loss of memory

                    Ain't looking forward to it.

                      Well...damn. Now you've gone and made this even more depressing.

                      On that note, I've already made the decision to take myself out of the game whenever it gets to be too much for me to deal with. I don't have kids nor have I ever wanted them, so that kinda frees me up a bit to make that decision. My family and girlfriend have all been made aware since 2012 when I had my first brush with my mortality.

                      I'm not going to be ****ting myself in to delirium in a nursing home full of strangers. **** that.
