If age is just a number, then a prison cell is just a room. When they say that hangovers get worse after your mid-twenties, they're not lying. Because, heck, they do, and a few bevvies can take a day to recover and two pills of Ibuprofen to get that clapping monkey with cymbals out of one's head.

"I’m 30, but I still feel like I’m 20 until I hang out with 20-year-olds. Then I’m like, no, never mind, I’m 30."
When I was younger I always hang out with the older crowd. Now that I'm a little older I find that I hang with the younger crowd.
" When someone says ‘10 years ago,’ I think about the 90s, not the 2013."
"Welcome to 30! From now on, if you get pregnant, people will assume you did it on purpose."
"As long you don't have kids your 30's are like your 20s but with money."
One day she noticed a gray hair in her bangs. She turned to her husband, pointed to her forehead, and said, 'Have you seen this?' 'What? You mean the wrinkles?'”

"Me in my 20s: Secretaly hates everyone.
Me in my 30s: Publicly hates everyone."
Nope not true I'm 21 and publicly hate everyone.. haha have since I was 18 😂😂
"I finally reached the perfect age. Somewhere between 29 years and none of your business!"
I clearly remember my mother's 29th 29th birthday. That's when she quit giving 29 as her age...
"I'm oficially 'You look good for your age' years old."
Yep I hear this all the time hanging out with people younger than me. But at least I always get you look younger.
"The chanting of 'Shots!' sounds more threatening than exciting."
"How can you say we are old after 30? We just became women! Like anyone took us seriously in our 20s…"
To me it's more like "I am 35 and still want to ask an adult for advice."
"The clothes you wore as a teenager are now vintage. Hope you rock that vintage style."
"Turning 30? Age is just a number!"
" False: Age is a word." – Dwight Schrute
Respectfully, Mr. Shrute (whomever he is) is wrong... Age is an attitude.
"Your 30s – where if you don’t get 8 hours of sleep one night you’ll pay for it for a week."
"You’ll never be trusted by a teenager again. You’re officially too old to trust."
"It's 8:30 p.m. and you want to start a movie this late?"
I'm from Spain, 8.30 is full afternoon for us. we eat dinner at around 9.30/10pm and movies don't start until 10.30.. I often go to the UK and seeing them having dinner at 6, while I eat my mid afternoon snack, and changing into their pj's at 7 is always a shock to me. 11 years going at least twice a year, and I still can't get used to that. (don't get me wrong I absolutely love Britain and the brits, but our clocks will never be read the same 😅)
"Don’t worry about being 30. You’ll get over it within a decade."
"Season 30, episode 1."
"When you turn 21 you finally experience the freedom of full throttle. If you make it to 30, it means you’ve discovered there’s a brake pedal too."

Lol nicely put. Problem is, the tax ends up being more than the price.

"After your 30th birthday, you are officially closer to 40 than you are to 20."

Wait until you're, like, 65 or so and allow the supermarket grocery bagger to "help you to your car" ... Whimper ...
"Time and tide wait for no one, but time always stops for a woman of thirty."
Yes because women over thirty are of less worth than a woman of 25???? And why women???

"I wanted to get you a birthday cake, but I couldn’t afford that many candles!"
"Nothing changes when you cross thirty, except that you have to replace your moisturizer with anti-aging cream."

"When you were 24, you didn’t even get to the bar until 11 p.m. Now, you’re in bed and asleep before the monologue on SNL."
"The only thing a line in front of a bar means is that there’s a large crowd inside. And you don’t do crowds anymore."
"Gone are the days of having to hear about what you did on Saturday night from another person."
"You wouldn’t be caught dead alone at a bar in your 20s. But now, it’s the ultimate luxury. Just you, a drink, and then another drink."
"Night sweats and hot flashes are nature's way of lowering your heating bill so you can save more money for your retirement."

"The good thing about turning 30 is if you don't want to do something, you can say, 'I'm too old to do that!'"
"Turning 30 is as easy as jumping rope… If the rope were covered in hard metal spikes, you were barefoot, and the ground was covered in hot lava."
"In dog years, you’d be getting closer to your death."
No. Dogs age differently. For example, if a person was 4, a Dachshund would only be 32. They can live to be 16. That means age 80 in dog years. So, a human aged 30 can still be young in dog years. If you calculate considering a very large breed then this statement would be accurate.
I'm 34 and I actually like this era in my life. Old enough to be invisible to predators, old enough to get better job offers etc. I like my appearance better too, more character. And I definitely start to care a lot less about what others think = less anxiety. All that but still considered "young enough" to have life ahead (even though years go by faster...). Overall pretty cool.
30 years old is age, where you don't feel anydifferent from your twenties, but everyone is trying to suck the joy from your life, because "yOu sHouLd aCT yOuR aGe".
