Isn't that the age now of people who listened to limp Bizkit? How is that weird? Reminds me of someone telling me I'm 38 and too old to wear a Nirvana sweater, but Nirvana is like a 30 year old band so...
Yeah just like when my work colleague laughed at me this week when I mentioned I play games. You still play games? He asked. Yes I do, it is what I enjoy to do. What do you in your spare time? Melt away watching ads on free to air TV? laughs in gaming
BTW I'm 38 too
I guess I too missed the memo that says you're supposed to outgrow everything that brought you joy as a child. I'll probably be an old geezer and still be playing videogames, watching cartoons and reading comic books.
I got pulled over by a cop for speeding when I was 49 and he gave me shit because he smelled the joint I was smoking. "Aren't you too old to be smoking pot?" Fuck you pig, although I didn't phrase it exactly like that. I actually said "you're right, I'm sorry sir".
You aren’t allowed to enjoy anything current, only nostalgia is socially acceptable. If you put a lot of money into a vintage atari or some shit you would be like a hero
