>:O

I get to be here for 11 months and counting.

I'll still have 10 months of my 20s left. What sort of crazy shit should I do while I'm still young?

(x-post)

You could try starting a thread where you post vintage b&w photos and then write captions underneath that are in the first person of the person in the photo.

Sounds karr-razzy!!

start a twitter feed so we know exactly when you post on ilx

I have been *in* my 20s for precisely 10 months. Overrated if you ask me. Maybe 21 is the true milestone.....

I have four years and two months left!

In my lol20s

YEAHHHHHH!! WOOOO!!!!

I'm still trustable for three more months.

so who wants to talk about pogs? Alf? ummmm.. neon colours?

90s NICKELODION

how about grateful dead tshirts worn by loads of kids who had no fucking clue who they were

guy i used to work with sold a synth to one of the grateful dead without knowing who they were

I have only seen deadhead kids in tie dye, why would anyone put on a tacky-ass GD shirt without knowing who they were? perhaps bear/skull/rose lovers. hmm.

deeznuts are you the guy whose dad owns a tie-dye shirt company?

huh?? maybe it was just my school or something but there were loads of 'em in the late '90s jr high & above

hi dere

20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20

You guys are old.

hey can you guys keep it down over here? I'm trying to watch McNeil Newshour.

Boring, put Mathnet back on.

I am a little sad that I'm not in my 20s anymore and therefore shouldn't really post here. Enjoy your youth while you still can! ;-)

yeah deez

can't wait to revive the ILXors in their 50's thread in 30 years

24 in almost less than a month!

22 a couple weeks ago imo

is that a matter of opinion?

25 years on my way to hell here

i remember when i was one of the youngest ILX posters. this thread is making me feel old and I'm only 27.

hi 27 here too

woot 27

I'm 23, I'm still good to go for a few more years surely?

hey whats the deal with these guys in their stripey shirts and asymmetrical haircuts and girl jeans amirite

I was one of the last holdouts for kikwear and visors.

24 duh

Im gonna be 29 in a month. Should I be posting in the other thread?

I'm 25 now but will I live to be 24
The way things are going I don't know

I am 28, so practically belong on the 30's thread.

<3 xp

i'm 22, soon 23, feel like 17 or 18 and definitely not enjoying my 20s like i should.

People who get a university degree and then go on to spend the rest of their lives working as office temps or video store employees or whatever

i am a businesswoman

1.35 years :(

Better get a post in here, because this thread won't be for me in less than 3 months :(

why are you all worried, being in your thirties is probably cool, pretty sure it tastes like coffee

not worried at all!

5 years 10 months left

so far i will say that my twenties have been way better than my teens, and i consider this trend to continue, with my thirties being better than my twenties, etc.

how long do you project that trend to continue

i should have just posted consider the likelihood that taylor swift will predecease you here for this is the vanguard which offers ilx the only hope of having a current poster survive long enough to post lolcats on taylor swift's rip thread

Ironically, the very same traits that make your 20s so painful and chaotic are the traits that make your 20s the most memorable time of your life. So much happens and you're riding the front edge of the wave from one minute to the next.

i have a low tolerance for pain and chaos, which is part of the reason i probably am "stalled" right now and haven't been able to take definitive steps toward my future... part of what i am trying to do not is to be more accepting of the difficulties i will face so they don't catch me off guard, as much. like, it sounds stupid, but i have been avoiding things like applying to ambitious jobs, i am realizing, out of a subconscious fear of the pain of rejection. that said, my vehement refusal to feel stressed has caused me to develop healthy habits like eating well and sleeping enough and going for long walks outside and it is for these reasons that i am going to outlive taylor swift.

*to do now, not to do not

hahahah YOOOO

good times

i am literally wearing a strpiey shirt and girl jeans rn wtf is wrong with me

haha!

one of my friends from high school bought a house or something not too too long ago

people are getting engaged and married

some have kids

i know this is all normal shit or w/e but i'm not taking it all normally

I'll be 40 next year, and it still amazes me when friends buy homes.

what about marriages or kids?

i can barely afford much

I have like $40

preach

if we pool our money maybe we can buy a few planks of wood

lol

you know what's cooler than $40

$50

i made $100 at a casino last week. maybe i should start gambling regularly.

intelligence should translate directly into wealth

i think a lot of ilxors would agree w/ me there

heist imo

if i knew in 2005 that i'd be posting to ilx and have a vanilla coke and this kid would have a house perhaps things would've turned out differently

when i was 22 and i had friends getting married/having kids i could sort of sneer it off (as you do) like "oh well i'm busy doing other things"

now that i'm older than my parents were when i showed up on earth, the clock on the wall sounds a little louder

still, this is a diff time/place/life, i'm a diff person, and markers is a diff person, and treeship is a diff person, than the folks who are doing things like getting married and having kids right now. they have one set of priorities, we all have our own.

I'm the same age my father was when I was 11.

man everytime i think about shit like that it's horrifying. i'm 28, my parents were 25+21 when they had me. aaahhhhhhh!!

I love how I didn't even have to spell this out: I have no children, no partner, no money, no savings, no pension, no career, and (practically) no job.
So why do I feel like I'm doing better than all my peers from school who are sweating it out in white collar jobs to earn money to buy stuff they want to impress people they don't like and who probably hate them?

i was recently looking through a photo album spanning the first four years of my life that my parents compiled really lovingly, with little documents and texts and stuff, and was almost brought to tears not from nostalgia but by how beautiful, young and happy they looked, thinking how sweet it must have been for them to just spend all their time hanging out with me, that i loved them so much and that they basically constituted my entire universe, answering all the questions i would ask about life. it really blew my mind, even thinking back on it now is overwhelming

time to hide someone else on fb

even the olds can probably empathize with that, markers

hahaha well

i'm not in the mood to hear about some people's success right now

petty attitude maybe but whatever

Neither their success nor my resentment of their success is defensible, both are the hallmarks of a disgusting savagery

if only we could all be failures

Then there's the other crowd: the 25-30 yr old 19 year olds.

>>>>>> olds

Magnus completely owned Vishy

So I'm going to post here before it's too late. FOMO. Any others?
