It's because I can't deal with it.
Yeh because you fooled yourself or let yourself be fooled into thinking there's some magic cutoff age. Or that only a tiny percentage of life experiences matter (what you do whne very young). Even though most people you see on tv are beyond that age.
Your childhood, which is more thna half of what you value, is mostly determined by other people anyway...how ridiculous is it to have that be the part of your life you to have the most pride in? The part of your life where you had the least input?
Very fucking irritating. Look at Ukraine right now...if the war carries on for 10 more years are you gonna tell people who spent their 20s in war they should call their life a day because they're 30+ now? Your life is whatever you live, not what your birth certificate says. Do you if you want, enjoy your life or don't, but don't try to drag others down to your defeatist attitude. I mean it's just stupid, I've never heard anything like it.
