Hey Pandas, What’s It Like Being Old? (Closed)

Are there any advantages or disadvantages to being older?

Ok. Short list. Learning is easier. My level of comprehension has gone up, I lack the distraction of youth. You're not constantly trying to figure out your life.
You aren't weird anymore, you're eccentric.
You really have seen all the cool bands: The Beatles and Elvis top my list.
Ladies, no periods! No pregnancy scares!
I could keep going, but you get the idea.
Looking forward to what's going to be new tomorrow.

Frustrating! Getting slower & more forgetful. Making noises when I sit or stand & when I’ve had to get down on the floor for anything it’s harder to get back up! 😭

Tired all the time, except when you want to sleep, everything hurts for no reason and the floor keeps going further away day by day. Your income increase does not nearly give the improvements you would have thought it to be 10 or 20 years ago, while new technology slowly stops feeling as natural. Society and the world seems a litte more crude every day. It's fairly not what I expected when I signed up and I wouldn't recommend it. Just stay 25 if you can.
