Went to a concert last weekend and the bands kept bringing up how “old” we were in our 30’s and 40’s, like the next stop is the nursing home or something.
Also, when hangin’ out with the “whipper snappers” in their 20’s, we don’t need to comment on how “old” we are in comparison.
Like fuuuuck y’all let’s save that “old“ talk for our 70’s and 80’s!!

i mean "mature" in the most superficial way, like people acting shocked if i talk about smoking or drinking... it's been like this since i was a teenager but it feels extra patronizing now that i'm 22 :/

This rec inspired by an extended family gathering ages 10-75. Yes most slang will age poorly but they other generations have dumb as shit words too. My wife’s grandpa once called something “boffo” instead of great. So if you wanna be a based youthpilled vibemaxxing wordcel (you actually probably shouldn't) go ahead and don’t let boomers and gen x bully you for it.

tried reading dante alighieri’s inferno. key emphasis on tried. i got bored and realised a story written in poem form is not my typa beat.
i tried because it seemed like what all the indie hipsters who are well versed would read, and that i would look cool and niche—but it just cost me $25.
i prefer crazy detailed paragraphs rather than a line by line story.
anyways

saying “i’m sick” when you’re sick is boring.
instead, here are some more funky fresh and cool ways to disclose that your immune system has been highjacked (it’s time to revive these sayings from the dead!):
“i am indisposed”
“i am taken ill”
“i am feeling out of sorts”
“i am suffering from a bilious attack”
“i have been seized by an ague”
“i am afflicted with a malaise”
“i have taken to my bed”
“the vapours have overcome me”
“i have a touch of the influenza”
“the rheumatism plagues me”
“i am laid low with a fever”
“i am afflicted with a troublesome ailment”
you’re welcome
