Speaking of small humans–
I realize that it is hot. I realize that it is summer. I realize that I live in an apartment complex and that means that people are gonna make noise. But I swear to god the kids upstairs are playing hopscotch over my head, and it’s really annoying.

“Over the hill. Is that forty or fifty?”
“It’s fifty, it has to be fifty, that’s when you get the grey balloons and stuff, right? If it was 40 I would be over the hill.”
(This is an IT meeting, so there was about thirty seconds of silence here.)
“Sunny, I have some bad news for you.” (They used my other nickname tho.)
“…”
“…”
“You guys are all babies and I hate you.”

@IoleRae When my dad turned 40, my older brothers did a big presentation with one of those giant easel sketchbooks. The presentation was called
Things That Are Older Than Dad
It included entries such as the following:
- Dirt
- The Earth
- Dinosaurs
- Time
- God
- Granddad
I really hope my parents still have that sketchbook somewhere.

That is amazing.

It’s not measured in years. It’s measured by when you get your first chronic injury in your knee or lower back.

@GF Shit, I’ve been over the hill since I was 27, then.

@Testament Nurse, or athlete?
-
@GF Neither. Soldier.
-
@Testament Yep, that’ll do it.
-
hip count?

@GF To be fair, in my case it was feet, but the other two followed not too long after despite that.
ETA: And I still work on my feet most days. “Unable to serve due to disqualifying conditions” my ass.

Well, that sure explains my entire personality. I’ve been a Grumpy Old Man since I was twelve, by this measure.
