I'm deciding that I'm now describing my age as 50. I've gotten so sick of every stupid old fuck who reacts to any offhand comment I make about my health or training with "that was befor the change, not at my age, you can eat whatever you want, oh if it was for my X problem" with the statement that I am older than they are. I have found that even white-haired fucks shut up when I say I'm older than they are, and they're just puppies.

A friend recently noted that anyone over 30 who isn't tied down has issues

In regard to both these points:

Anyone who lets a chronological number define them has issues.

Anyone who lets someone else define them, or tell them what they should want and have, has issues.

I get issues, but I don't keep them. I toss them out in the recycle bin each month.
