Here Today... Gone To Hell!

I used to think 60 was old. But I saw Paul McCartney (hes 62) and he looks GREAT! Also, Mike Wallace (from 60 Minutes) is 87 and he looks and sounds great. I know its a clich?, but I really think age is a state of mind.

Age is definately a state of mind, i'm 19 going on 20 and i feel old...

30  :P

Like the great musician Prince says "How Old would u be if u didnt know how old u were?"


I am 26 but a guy at the gym the other day thought I was 18, I feel like im about 15 to be honest.

I am never getting old.

I think u are old once u can no longer do stuff for yourself.

I turned 20 today and I feel ancient. Such is the fate of young conservatives. ;)

I knew there was a good reason for me feeling old...

It's definitely a state of mind.  Although, when I was 20, I thought 30 or 40 was old.  I'm 43 now, so I can now afford to say the state of mind thing.  :D  But seriously, I think it is.    I feel younger than my age - hopefully I look younger too. 

 
 

As a woman, knowing how fast it gets hard to have kids, i would have an answer that may not please people :

Old is as soon as internal organs start to suffer and in most people, that means around mid 30's.

You can look as good as you want, there is no age reversal for organs.

Thats ridiculous. Mid 30's old? How sad. Mid 30's is the prime of your life - your organs arent getting old then..they may not be 'young' but they arent in the old stage either. How many people in their mid 30's have organ failure, or heart attacks, senility, or other degenerative organ problems caused by age? Virtually none, cause in your 30's youre still classified as young. Just becuase a woman is no longer in the peak reproductive years, doesnt mean that that equates to having old organs in the 30's. A man can still reproduce in his 90's - does that mean that his organs (no pun intended) arent old??! The reproductive thing therefore has nothing to do with it.Some 20 year olds have lots of grey hair - does that make them old, or is that a sign of their 'internal organs suffering'? No.

50+ maybe, but that hasnt come close to starting at that age. Id say that 50 is when it starts. And "old" is probably at 70+.

However, its all relative. To a 16 year old, someone who is 40 seems old, but when you turn 30, you realise that 40 year olds arent that old, theyre just no longer 'kids'. To a 40 year old, a 70 year old is old, but I guess when youre 60, 70 doesnt seem that bad..

My nanna was in her 80's when we bought her a walking stick, and she refused to use it cause she said, Im not that old yet - and I knew that she said that cause she thought - on the inside, Im still that young woman in her 20's...I not old!

right on amanda : ok:

To people's eyes You are old when you are about  60's and when you give up hope.

Amanda, i talked internal organs.

The condition in which you arrive to what we call old age is highly dependant on lifestyle and genetics, but whatever you do, whatever your lifestyle, organs get older.

Which is why any proper doctor anywhere in the world can agree to say the best age to have kids in women is between 16 and 25.

There is NOTHING you can do about it.

Livers get tired, kidneys, uteruses, cells, the whole internal system acts its right age very fast.

Today, i am 30 and i went out a hell of a lot when i was 17, 18, and 19, until i had a coma actually..
I would take drugs, booze my life out ( also had an ethyllic coma after a wormed bottle of tequila and two liters of beer went inside me for a contest), i'd have lots of sex and would never go to bed until 10 am at the earliest and this was every weekend and every day at 17, EVERY DAY.

Today, at 30, i know there are things i cannot do, and this, purely because i am TI RED.

I could not go to bed at 10 am like before.

I'm not 17 anymore, i do feel this, in my body.

I don't have the same energy.

My skin is not as tender either, my ass is not as perky, nor my tits, let's get real for 2 minutes??

tell us more about your tits.

kiiiidddiiiiing :)

95C at the mo', huge, full up with milk for my little bub baby..

what else ?  ;D

Old at heart but I'm only 25  :'(
Since I turned 20 life has passed very quickly.

I run six miles a day. I hope that helps.

I'm 19 and i feel young! I love it! I have to take care of myself and that is all, and I can deal with that, i go to school i work, i party everythin is balanced out and i feel great! My dad is 51 and when i was younger i didnt think men at 51 could do or look like my dad, so i think everyone gets "old" in their own time cause ive seen some 50yr olds who look like they are about to die! I think when you can't take care of yourself or you have hard times walkin or somethin like that then thats when you become old!

The liver and kidneys don't like alcohol, and if you're inactive and/or have a bad diet, pre-diabetes and diabetes don't help either. Teenagers want sex all the time anyway, and part of your mellowing out is just learning self control and discipline, not just aging.

As for skin, well that's too bad. :( But you're kidding yourself if you think you've aged too much since your teens. If anything, bodybuilders and some other athletes peak in the 30's. Of course, some athletes like football players burn out then because of cumulative injuries. It depends. It's really the 40's when aging really starts to kick in.

I'm....er.....22...i think, and feel prehistoric - all these kids everywhere listening to emo and watching spongebob squarepants - wasn't like that in my day!

It's all changed when i was a kid the coolest thing to own was wrestling figures..

My mates were all jealous of me 'cos i had a Kamala figure.

He was all fat and stuff. Way cool. (memory lane. http://www.toydreams.co.uk/wwf/cardedfigures.html

Please NO!!!!!!!!! :hihi:

I don't wanna be old.

You're only as old as you feel. :P

I still got 32 of them, the orginal big rubber style men. the ring was the coolest, i remember I had the steel cage Wrestlemania 2 style, it kicked ass. I wanna have kids so I can play with this shit again.

You know i was eating multi-grain bread just before.......you know the kind old people always eat.

and i was thinking..........hey this doesn't taste too bad. i have moments like that where i think im turning old. i'm 20 now and i feel old. but all it takes is for me to see like a hotwheels ads on tv or an ad for nerf guns and i feel like a kid again.

oh those wrestling toys.

my friend used to have the wcw ones, like the whole ring. and you could put a chair in their hands and u like click in their legs and they swing the chair! they all could do their moves. ah so many matches ended with the chair shot. and royal rumbles too. since they could gorilla press each other out of the ring.

I think Im getting old, cause on long trips I use to rock out to music, now I find myself listening to news talk radio :nervous: :nervous: :nervous: Damn u SLC for makin me become political! :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :hihi:

age is just a bloody number, fuck 30, i cant wait till im 30 :yes:.......

i reckon it'll be cool when im 60 serounded by family n' photo's all over the walls n' shit,  or you could just be miserable and loath the day you turn old n' have midlife crisist' all the time :hihi:

Youre "old" and have have declining internal organs - thats sad shit, my condolences.

For me, and others in their 30's, we feel and look fab and are in the prime of our lives.

Of course you dont look the same as you did as a teenager. As a teenager you dont look the same as when you were in a small child either - check out the skin of a 4 year old, compared to a acne faced oily skinned teen..thats called reality, it does not mean that your body is falling apart.  That is what you were implying right? That in your 30's your body is falling apart - thats hilarious!!  :hihi:

Those were the real deal ones, loved em, i actually had that one, also had the ring with all the noises too.....

Exactly and as old as the man you feel.  ;) ;D

Now that I have turned a nice ripe age, that number has gotten much bigger.  :P

I desperately wanted an Al Snow figure but they got taken off the shelves in Tesco due to something in WALMART reacting to a professor's papers about Al Snow manniquen head being a "textbook example of spousal abuse"  ???

One sign of maturity(nicer word for old): Instead of going out to a dance club, you'd rather hang out on the Barnes & Noble sofa reading a book while the PA system gently lulls you with the soft serenade of Michael Bubl? .

Yeah that's me.

I'd rather go to Barnes and Noble and read some cool books, look at CDs, and get a coffee than go to some overestimating dance club, listen to crappy music, pay 15 dollars for a bottle of water, and get shot down by a bunch of stuck-up bitches who think their shit doesn't stink.

When I go to Barnes & Noble, I sit around like a bum and read all their comic books. The Fountain of Youth.
