This. I still feel young but without the urge to do stupid things like swimming across the Ouachita river just for shits-n-giggles.

I am 28. My dad is 63 and shows no signs of old age other than not knowing much about social media or apps.

You got a problem with it?

I don't look nor do I feel that old.

Old age differs for every person. I basically say old age is when your age and health really start to hold you back from physical activities, and not just in "losing a step". Someone who has reached "old age", to me, would be someone who's kids have grown up and left the nest, who's joints have started to give them trouble, who no longer fits in at most "happy hour" "after work" bars, has hearing that's starting to go, and wears their pants high on their waist.

60.

And with equal parts luck and science, hopefully it'll be older than that if and when I turn the big 6-0.

30 (I'm 28)

At 30 you'll start seeing a fair amount of friends with receding hair lines, touches of gray, mobility starts to decline, aches and pains start to show up ect

The blue pill, hair dye, plastic surgery, Bosley generation is full of garbage.

Things can't go two ways. The youth are growing up faster and faster, yet the old folks want to say things like 40 is the new 30, which is bs.

Over 30 and you're 'old' in the eyes of a teenager.

Over 45 is the next phase of old age.

Do you really care what a teenager thinks?
