I plan to live like Kiya by the time I'm in my 30s, except I don't need to show off my gold-plated nail clippers.

I'm not a kitchen god or anything, but after logging 20,000+ hours of viewing the Food Network, you would THINK that I could recognize a double boiler when I see one. Instead, I burned the bottom of a pot because I put water in the double boiling attachment, rather than in the pot itself. Now I owe my friend's roommate a new fucking pot, and it won't even be the same one because I think this one is from 10 years ago or something.

Fuck my idiocy.

Oh and fuck drama.

Reading the Superswap threaks always gets my blood boiling, and I don't even participate in them.

Why the fuck do people participate in these activities if they can't be responsible enough to even ship a package? And to the people that can't spare $40 to make a goodies box, and ship, ------ JUST DON'T SIGN UP, PLEASE.

You know, that being said, at the moment I'm one of the people that can't really afford to make a $40 goodies box and ship too-- so I don't participate. See how easy that was?

^setting age limits is always a bad idea but its a good idea not to be a mess when your in your 30's. doesn't mean you have to stress about living up to some bullshit age standard.

every time i hear somebody talk about age appropriate behavior it rubs me the wrong way.

for better or worse i felt more age pressure when i was in my early twenties than i do now. i also remember how youthful my grandmother was throughout her life.i think a whole lot of people confuse maturity with rigidity in outlook. watching people older than myself i have noticed that if you keep finding things to be passionate about you seem younger and happier. by all means if you find a way to be passionate about chasing long term goals you have set for yourself then there is no reason not to pursue them.

there is a book which is amazing if you are ever feeling like you are too old to take up something new tolstoy's bicycle the russian authour learnt to ride one when he was 67.

i feel like it's a little different nowadays.

Everyday an older person tells me that some thing about today's society is nothing like how it was when they or their parents were growing up.. or they've never seen anything like this or that in their entire life.

Obviously this is normal for any generational gap.. but everyday that gap is expanding at an accelerated pace.

Children now are more regimented and geared towards specific expertness than ever in modern history. Theyre unbalanced and keyed up on technology (which has seen record growth in even the past 3 years let alone 10). Their parents have them thinking about college entry at 5th grade, I know people who still cant settle on a major after several years of already being in school.. and not to mention as the world unifies competition increases.

I dunno it seems to me more than ever its time to plan.. or at the very least have some sort of a direction.. Because unless magically things cool down and everyone takes a chill pill (or a couple xanbars) nowadays theres just far less wiggle room than ever.

words.

i dunno, the world has always been moving towards increased specialization and, derived from that, efficiency.

maybe you're hanging with too many old people.

an interesting line

yea i dunno. old people are really pessimistic these days youre right. And sure maybe things will just work out and we'll all get a long without major catastrophe.

maybe im on 60 minutes and goosh isnt some ugly asian guy hiding behind a blackface avatar.

But we have more people living on the earth today than have ever died in the history of mankind. Things are more and more efficient and you need less people to get things done. So you have an unfathomable amount of people who are more or less becoming useless to society, and an incredibly specialized workforce that cannot be sustained by the current rate of even the international economy....

so whatr you gonna do? sit around and play with your dick until you figure out what you want to be when you grow up??

I guarantee you can clean it w/ oven cleaner and a stainless steel scrubby. TRUST. This plus gift/favor would probably be cheaper/easier. Unless it's enameled, you can get anything as good or better than it was before with a little work. (Cooklifeforalongtimewhatever.)

Co-sign on anti-agism shit.

When it comes to livin I say just don't do anything you REALLY don't wanna do. It's a lot easier to have the courage to do whatever you want when you are younger and there are less or no consequences for fuckin up or failure, but if you want to do something forever, who cares; your mum and dad?

Power and good times are only temporary anyway. Don't get locked down in a terrible life regardless of what that means for you.

Based on what he has (watches, stores, nailclippers, etc.) I think he's just real-life Midas.

I have a big presentation due on Thursday. So far all of the presentations have been pretty stellar and intellectual, although some weren't. Sometimes the professor brings out these crazy on the spot questions that he will just interrupt the presenter with. Idk, I just hope I can get my argument in order.

I definitely didn't expect my self-indulgence to start a debate on age-appropriate behaviour.

Anyhow, it's probably a hidden blessing as I think both my internal organs and relationships are currently on the path of eventual self-destruction.

I did not mean that people needed to act their age, or be on a schedule, i just think there is a time and place to be a scumbag, not tipping, stealing drinks from the bar, and a time to be buying, or at least tipping your friends givin em to ya.

The charm of a "get over on people do nothing" wears off as we get older, at least to me, how i used to do it. But fuck it, keep doin what you do as long as you want, but dont be surprised if some doors are closed to you that were once open based on the "freedom" you wanted to have.

There are not many 40 year old rock stars (only example i can think of right now), at least ones that got in to it at that age. But sure, you can find a bar gig and pass around the pitcher and feel like something still happening, maybe it is, but not how you once wanted it, not really.

life is precious concept.

A couple kids ding dong ditched me two days ago (I saw them scatter through the window). Then as i was getting the mail yesterday, I saw them do it to the neighboring apartment building. Well today, I'm half asleep on the couch, and there is a loud cop-like banging on my door.

In my half-sleep drowsiness, i got up, threw open the door, and I ran after them barefoot. I catch up with them, two asians with band instruments and a mop-headed kid in Dunks, and I just had to stand there for a second thinking, "Am I really at that point in my life where I can yell at kids for doing stupid kid stuff?"

By that point since I had already committed that much, I pretty much had to...

Posted

waiting on your couch for them to do it again was quite the pragmatic thing to do

ugh that joke didn't really work now did it :\

Roughly an hour later this quote went and became hilariously ironic.
