I already believed it man.  Fuck.

[jay-ell]

In my high school, which was one of the highest ranked public schools in the state in the richest suburb of the state (this is OK, so neither of those are that impressive) in English Lit senior year I watched Shrek and Lord of the Rings. 

I just became very confused reading this because I had been thinking that Keith was about my age and it seemed preposterous to me that anyone anywhere near my age could possibly have watched these films in high school. 

Then I clicked his profile and found out he's only 22 and realized that I must be incredibly old and out of touch because I still think of Shrek and LotR as "new" films, even though both of them have multiple sequels. 

Then again, I still think of The Lion King as part of the "New Disney," so maybe this should not come as such a surprise.

<sigh> They say 50 is the new 30. I'm starting to think the reverse is true, as well.

We're old, jayelle, but at least we're hot.

Must count for something.

If it means anything to you geezers, I am wasting away my youth doing drugs, going to loud concerts, being poor, having absolutely no responsibility and having uncommitted sex.

Oh, uh, nevermind.

(i am lying unfortunately.  Well, kind of, but I have to do other stuff too. Like waste precious weekends writing shit ass papers.  Luckily I can party everyday of the week that I have time/money.  That is the best part of being young, as far as I see it.  Of course, the only reason I have to waste weekends is because I am a horrible procrastinator, so, if I were smarter I could party everyday.)

yesterday, a lady I am interested in reminisced with her roommates about how they smoked pot every single day of sophomore year. I wasn't sure whether I was supposed to be put off or impressed.

[KeithHernandez]

I don't want to put you off or impress you, but, I am going on, uh, year six of that plan.  It is starting to get old.  (i am lying again)

[theinevitable]

damn, dude.

I just realized that... those girls are your age. Weird.

[KeithHernandez]

Aren't you basically my age?  I mean, if you are in college and not a freshmen I basically consider you to be "my age."

[wombat]

They say 50 is the new 30.

Seriously? What a relief.

[theinevitable]

yeah. I mean. I'm 19. 22 seems a lot more grown-up.

[KeithHernandez]

Yeah, some people I know are all getting ready to be bankers at the beginning of the year and stuff, I don't understand that.  I guess there is a difference.  Ironically the guy who is most looking forward to growing up showed up at my apartment everyday in the summer between 2-3 pm with a Keystone Light or other shit beer in his hand.  Then we walked to work after he got drunk enough.  However, the people at that complex that are also my age have a projector that we play Mario 3 with projected into the pool, and I recognize with them a lot more, so I guess you can be either grown up or not at 22, but you don't have to be grown up.

So did we.  Guess what you have to look forward to?

[KeithHernandez]

more of the same?

[theinevitable]

so, I've been thinking about that picture that was posted.
And, man, goddamn. If he wants to do that, why should anyone stop him? He's so happy. That smile is so genuine. It makes me glad.

I am going to show that picture to homophobes, man.
