      Billy Ray Cyrus’s daughter is born

      She has a song out called “Used to be Young”. She was born in the 90s and has a song out about not being young and crazy any more. WT-actual-F

        Everyone over the age of 20 thinks they’re old now.

        Everyone older than them responds with some variation of, “Just you wait!”

        Always been this way.

          I go out of my way to let people in their late 20s how little time they have left with their body being nice to them.

          One day hangovers last 2 days, by 34 you’ll get to find out what part of your body is going to be your main ache, if your lucky like me, you’ll get 2.

          Then you’ll just shit yourself for no reason.

        She’s 31. Which isn’t that old but older than the “young and crazy” phase I suppose
