What's our average age on here?

Feeling older than my nearly 5 decades today. At work, tired, discontented, and still working 12 hour days doing Hurricane Ida rehab--total of 3 days off since the storm.
Reminiscing on here about how Siegen Lane has declined since I was a yute just reminds me that I'm likely past midlife and definitely not getting any younger. Getting on the AARP's mailing list ain't helping.
I was a pre-40s youngster back when I registered here in 2010. Now, I'm staring down 50, still shitposting on tOT, and wondering when I can finally hang up my tools and GTFO into retirement.
All of that got me to wondering: How old are you SOBs? It seems like we're all dealing with similar life-cycle issues (finances, marriage, kids, and the unreliability of Uber Eats). Any of you older frickers have advice beyond the increasing risk associated with a common fart?
NB4 Dear FB.
Oh, and GET OFF MY LAWN!

I joined as a young buck 26 year old in 2006. I just turned 41 last week. Still posting on the OT.

As someone who joined a while back and lurked for a while before that, it has been fascinating to observe how the board has aged out.
At the beginning of fall semester, posters used to have rankings of how well the fraternities did with their pledges, along with other school gossip.
Then the topics started centering more on grad/professional school.
Then the topics started centering on passing the bar or the engineering licensing exams.
Now it's mostly old people problems and ranting on the OT, like politics, finances, nostalgia and medical stuff.
Maybe the Rant skews younger...they definitely skew crazier over there.

Fatigue. It has been a shite 2-3 years. LEave the politics of Covid aside, it has just sucked overall. Stress has built
I am 48 and feel every bit of it. I am making more $$$ than I ever have, knocking down debt like a son of a bitch, but I am still unhappy. I would drink but hangovers are too miserable. They are now 2 day events with the first day being a total shitshow. Day 2 I eat lunch and its better. So that is one outlet gone.
I can't play golf either, back hurts on a regular day I can't imagine the sounds I would make trying to swing a club at true 3/4 speed even.

I don't know. All the twelve-year-olds really bring the average down.
