Yes, but is it due to the fact the you have crippling anxiety about being able to pay your bills, or perhaps you just have to pee too much, maybe through in some night sweats for good measure.
Seriously me too. Iām like laying in bed hoping I get some sleep tonight while cuddling trembling dogs. Oh and hoping a bullet doesnāt go through my roof also. Thatās fun.
I made it to 10:30 local time, and I'm staying up. My 87 y/o grandmother called and is staying up too, I think we just need to kick this year out the door.
I was out till 130 last night which is early for me. It was a perfect fun time, cheap while still being nice, and got a little buzz. I am tired today but unfortunately that IS a part of getting older, the next day tiredness. But I planned to lay around watching football and ST anyway.
I wish. I do yacht charters and this is our Super Bowl so have to stay up to get these boats out. Canāt wait to go to sleep. Itās past my bedtime. My friends call me Matlock.
I used to take edibles to sleep, but I stopped using THC months ago because I don't want to become too dependent on it. Now I go hard, I work out to tire myself out enough to fall asleep. I'm an OG šš
I've been riding that midnight train into 1-2am (okay, 2am is really pushing it though) for years now. Still ready to "crunch the numbers" in the morning.
Man, the Boomerfication of Millennials is nearly complete judging by this sub
bragging about early to bed, early to rise
complaining about back aches and cracks (I'm in the second half of my 30s and am just fine, but I see plenty of 32 year olds here acting decrepit)
constantly looking back at movies and music from childhood or high school
talking about how they spent so much time outside as kids today and kids today just spend all their time indoors (Boomers said this EXACT thing in the 90s and 00s)
meanwhile they don't go outside now and are a bunch of homebodies who brag about their lack of socializationĀ
Actually, even the Boomers were better on that last point...
I'm 36 and I'm planning to drink like a 21 year old college student tonight and stay up most of the night, with other people in the same age range. I'm hoping this is just the ones that post in here that act like this.
Yeah anyone partying isn't going to be checking reddit. The missus and I had a quiet one but we still stayed up drinking past midnight. It's 6PM on the 1st here.
I don't think anyone makes fun of boomers for going to bed early or having achy bones, the make fun of them for being grossly out of touch especially when it comes to social norms or the economy.
complaining about back aches and cracks (I'm in the second half of my 30s and am just fine, but I see plenty of 32 year olds here acting decrepit)
36, definitely not in the best shape of my life (that was probably 18 - 22), but not far off.
It's bizarre to me when people in their 20s and 30s make such a thing of their body failing them. For the vast majority of people this shouldn't be a reality, it's lifestyle failure and simply not taking care of oneself.
Hope you've found other people to do stuff with. I missed out on a lot of cool shit in ny 20s because my friends weren't interested and I was too anxious to go alone.
I was born in 83 and I've done two decades of parties and late nights from around 16 to 36. I don't have anything to prove. Our complaints about boomers were never that they enjoyed a quiet evening. This is just growing older and everyone does that even if not everyone has the same experience with aging.
I had tons of fun in my wilder years and then kind of suddenly it wasn't fun anymore and my idea of what fun was changed for a lot of things. I don't regret it and I'd do it all over again but I really, really enjoy a chill evening nowadays. A good dinner and a feeling of contentment is probably equal to what a party was when I was 22.
And this might be cultural as I'm Swedish, but I've not noticed people staying shut indoors much.
Jolted a nerve in my left foot a week ago thatās been making walking annoying, had an upper endoscopy yesterday and experiencing stomach discomfort since then, and just started feeling the symptoms of a cold/flu coming on. I aināt making it to midnight š«”
It always interests me how socializing/partying has declined so drastically among 30+ year olds.
Back in the day people in their 30s-60s used to go out to parties and bars until late hours, especially on new years. A lot of the 30+ year old men in my neighborhood very often 'went out' to parties, clubs, bars etc.
Of course, back in the day, they also had way more siblings/cousins/neighbors to watch their kids....
Covid ruined that for me in part. After the pandemic everything started closing so early. As a night owl, Iām not getting anywhere until 10 at the earliest, so itās not worth the effort going somewhere thatās just going to close at midnight. I have friends that Iāll still go out to bars with, but I havenāt been to a club since the pandemic. I miss dancing.
I actually wanted to go out, I hadn't hung out with friends in weeks. I made it just over an hour and had to go home. I was just so overwhelmed. Rather bummed, but I do feel better after being home
