I turn 22 on friday, and I am dreading it. I think that it is an age when I can't get away with acting like such an idiot anymore, and I should be getting a bit more serious about my life. Am I overreacting? Advice please.

treasure your youth

you're still so young!!

Bitch


:p


Your just jealous...

because I am younger than you, you hag.


Goddamn it


Blasphemy! Thats 3 pints!

And are you going to come to chalk after your prior engagements on Saturday?


I'm gonna try


Good man


it's extremely harsh

cunt wasn't even talking


yes

you're overreacting.


*sits back

arms crossed, realising she has a good 4 or 5 years to go until this*


4 OR 5 years??? How is there indecision?

I'm sure your folks will tell you whether you're 17 or 18...


17 and a half, innit.

Well, near enough. I'll turn 18 in may.


...thought as much,

although surely 4.5 years would have worked, no?


It would, but I'm too young

to use decimals in an everyday conversation.


I have a job


ok let me shuffle this joke around a little then"

umm

Go concentrate on your career grandad!!!


Oh.My.God.


you're overreacting

essentially: it's your life, live it how you see fit.

LIVE YOUR LIFE, BE FREE


No.


please?


Buy me a drink tonight

and I'll consider transferring copyright of all my posts to Sarkyfox Internet Enterprises Ltd


ok

WHERE? ffs


Dunno

I think Brooner should deicide, as it's him that works just round the corner


FROM WHERE?!?!?!?!??!

arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh


From the 100 Club

which is where we're going to see Future Of The Left. Are you OK? You seem even more highly-strung than usual this morning.


sending messages that read

"what the fucja is a kush"
after being called a lush


am i highly strung?!!!!!!!!

am i?

and, chunty bitch shutthefuckup

also you, scottish bastard.


You're

WAY older than I thought.

Frankly I now feel kind of sordid about the special dance that we did.


what?!


hehehe

you're my dancing toyboy!


22 is a great age!!!!!!!!

i had so much fun being 22.

23 is proving a little to grown up. but i compensate. mainly with strongbow.


i like being 23

and, as you say, strongbow helps all situations.


no i do like being 23...i'm just currently working for the man. THE MAN.

i keep forgetting i am 23 though and then look like a div when people ask how old i am *when i get asked for ID*

it's probably the can of strongbow in the one hand and the cherry lambrini in t'other that's causing both situations....


22 is nothing to worry about

It's nowhere near old.


i turned 22 a couple of weeks ago

its pretty depressing.
my life is over.


cheers


i turned 22 yesterday....

..... it does feel rather strange already.... i feel like i have to make choices now or never for some reason


^^^^^ SEE!!!


24 brings the suck

but i like it a whole lot more than i'm looking forward to March 15th. Quarter of a century. Congratulations on your contribution to civilisation loser. Ho hum :(


it could be worse!

you could be me facing June 17th this year!


22? pfft


why 22?

what's the significance?
Just convince yourself it's 25 that's the age you have to "grow up", then at 25, it's 30 that is when you have to worry etc etc


Wait 'til your 25

Then start calming down


Crows Feet

start at 23. Start investing in Nivea Man now.


Nivea Man

sounds like a metrosexual super hero.


bollocks

I could pass for 19 I reckon.

If anyone says otherwise they can fuck off.


you look 38

to me


on a

good day


zing

!


I'm not over 22

so I don't know.

If and when I turn 23 I will either

a) Lie about my age. I can still get away with being 18. I get Id'd sometimes for cigarettes!!
b) Take comfort from the Blink 182 song "What's My Age Again"


Whats my age again wouldnt comfort me

quality of the song aside, the message is "at that age, you have to be a bit of a jerk to have fun. but maybe you shouldnt care about being a jerk"


I quote

"No one should take themselves so seriously
With many years ahead to fall in line
Why would you wish that on me?
I never want to act my age
What's my age again?"


22

was my best year when I did most good stuff.

I am now a washed up ship's biscuit


no

I have minus a billion pounds till I get paid tomorrow


fuck you

old man


fuck YOU

Linvoy Primus


22??

You have no worries. I turned 27 and did nothing apart from get twatted and put on a gig. That's my sole concession to organisation and planning for my life for this year. Sod everything else. I will NEVER get serious.


seriously

don't worry about it, when you get older you will always regret worrying you were too old when you were younger because it just makes you feel even older. I had given up by the by age 25 then it turned out to be the best year of my life and I felt young again.


Stuck in the perpetual motion

Dying against the machine
The whole thing leaves
You a nothing instead of a these
The sun is black and the black halos fly
And your number is backwards again when you try
The sound is so cute when you're 22
When you're 22

Eggs break when you walk on the scramble
You're living against the machine
The whole thing leaves
You a nothing instead of a these
The bone is cracked and the cracked eggshells fly
And your number is backwards again when you drive
The whole thing's removed when you're 22
When you're 22

That's Wayne Coyne's take on it, anyway.


I turn 25

in April. I don't like the fact that this moves me into the 'midtwenties' bracket and no longer the 'earlytwenties'. I think you can still get away with being an idiot at 22. Live and learn.


25 is fine

but when you turn 26 you can no longer get a Young Person's Railcard, which isn't a milestone I'm looking forward to


Or youth discount at

STA. how depressing


you still get

ID'd too


I still get ID'd

I do think I look younger than I am, but surely not 17?


Yeah

So don't let me hear you whining about turning 25. 25 is ace.


but it's only 5 years

til 30 :(


I'm looking forward to

being 30. 26 this year = one year nearer


I don't have any dread about

turning 30 either


bf

I was dreading turning 27, but its not so bad.

but I do tend to find 22 year old bands singing stupid indie pop songs trebley annoying now


but I thought you

were 46?


bf

well, no, when I turned 27, I thought I was a bit old, so changed my age on here to 22, and my girlfriend took the piss out of me so much that I changed it to 46

I might alter it to 54, and say thats a picture of me in the seventies. I think that'd work


yeah do that

I'll believe you.


utterly ridiculous

Late 20s CANE early 20s. they really do. You're less of a cunt, earn a little more money and are still youngish.


22 is fine

for some reason 23 is the one i'm not looking forward to so much, or 24. 25 seems fine though. this makes no logical sense of course.


you are right you can no longer be silly

Look at me I am the embodiement of seriousness.


Poppycock

I'll be 380 this year. Never married, single, no kids, no job, can't drive, never owned property. I'm sitting eating a cheesesaladroll, listening to loud Teenage Fanclub and gearing myself up to getting back to those London photies. No, you're right, kill yourself now


380?

You're awfy well preserved. Must be something to do with those weird concoctions you were drinking at Zonino


You are overreacting

you're only as old as you feel (or the person you're feeling)


how old is that

cute little dog then?


I said person

don't you be implying bestiality


i am 22

on saturday night i punched the ceiling whilst dancing to andrew wk. does this sound like i'm serious about my life? eh?


I find odd numbers

to be more enjoyable years than evens. 27 is the best year yet :) I'm doing everything I want to!
