Signs We Are Getting Old

[The AD]

Anyone else use their pickup seat heaters when it isn't that cold out?

Do you think only pickups have heated seats?

I don't have kids, so don't get invited to any weddings these days, but I'm amazed at how many of my friends' kids are getting married and some of them right out of college. I'm shocked--and a bit disappointed, if I'm being honest--that kids these days would get married so young.

Well I got married at 21 (my wife was 20) and started having kids at 25. I would recommend getting married (and having kids) young to most people. Cannot imagine waiting until my late 30s to have kids.

I dunno... being kid-less for your 20's seems a better payoff than being kid-less in your 40's/50's. Of course, my wife and I started having kids when I was 30 and she was 27, so sorta in the middle. Which is probably perfect.

Not that young. 25 is still a kid as far as I'm concerned. Get out and enjoy the single life before settling down into adulthood.

You’re also mormon. Your cult loves their 10% so yep, have more kids immediately.

Back to the subject at hand.

When I was young I would ski on broken glass if that was all that was available. Now I am much more picky.

Well, shit, he didn't mention that. That was my first thought when I read it. If you can't go out whorin' around of course you're going to want to get married young.

Got married at 21 too. Wife was 20 too. We dated steady for 6 years first. I'm not a Mormon but they sure did put on some cool pageants for a while at The Hill.

Can't imagine smearing shit and going on with the day.
Bidet or shower.

That definitely played a role in it. [emoji23]

That said, I have a 23yo and I can't imagine him getting married yet.

my husband got me a detail sander for Christmas because I want to re-do some cupboards.

I got him a bidet

You married the girl that you fucked when she was 14?

My 25 year old daughter complains to us nearly every day that she can't even find singles to make friends with. She's a teacher in a good sized elementary school and she's in grad school but between work and school there's only one other single young woman and no single guys. They're all either married or spoken for.

We had our first when I was 45.

I needed to practice.

Yeah, overall I think kids are living a more sheltered life for a longer time these days. Plenty of parents still supporting there kids well into their 20s. Obviously it's not a blanket rule, but I think kids need to be out on their own for a while before getting married and having kids.

How about when you throw out your back cuz you sneezed or coughed wrong?

[Bunion 2020]

It happens when you get old. I don't even need to sneeze or cough wrong.

Just got my MRI back. Barely even a bulge on the C5/C6. PT must have "fixed" it a bit before I got the scan.
All I know is that shit sucked. I still have a little numbness in my left thumb. Little weakness in the arm still too.
This has been going on since about 11/15, and from what I hear, I am lucky it resolved itself this quickly.

So I guess this was my wake up call, the universe telling me:
Get off your ass
Mix in a salad
Drink some damn water (coffee doesn't count)
Stop hunching at your computer
STOP staring at your phone.

I think 95-99% of disc bulges will shrink back significantly within 3-4 weeks without any active treatment at all.

But once that disc has bulged once it’s at risk of pancaking out again and causing the same issue - which is where strengthening the foundation around it (the muscles supporting your neck/lower back - wherever the popped disc is) is important to do all you can to keep that disc in place.

Nerves can also get pinched in places away from the neck (like in the zone between your neck and outside edge of your shoulder) and will still give you very similar symptoms - and a neck MRI in that case can come back looking pretty normal (since it’s likely not viewing the area where the nerve is being bothered)
