stuff to leave behind when your turn 25
« on: January 20, 2011, 02:05:04 PM »
My friend and I were talking about things we thought were healthy to leave behind a few years after finishing college.

Examples:

-thinking Bukowski is good poetry
-Improv Everywhere/flash mob stunts
-ultra tight jeans

And a bunch more.

What are some good ones I'm missing?

Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Worrying about being sent to Antarctica.

And comic books, maybe?

The work of any author whose books were sold in hip record stores when such places existed (Bukowski, Kerouac, Burroughs, Palahniuk, Rollins, that novel Nick Cave wrote)

I'll probably go into the wee hours.

Every thing I think of to add to this list I did probably until 30 (okay 35).  Thanks for bringing me down man.

That's fair. Maybe 30 is a better benchmark.

Mattress and boxspring on the floor, no bedframe, using an old sleeping bag as a comforter. Did that until I was 28.

Re: Flash Mobs

Is that being a part of them or enjoying them? Either way I'd have to disagree. I've never been a part of one or even seen one live but they seem to bring a smile to people's faces. Nothing wrong with that, right?

I will add paranormal movie/books/tv shows. Maybe even horror in general. I might be contradicting myself with my previous statement but that stuff needs to go at 25.

Long, unkempt hair, gentlemen
Not showering
Treating your dates like dirt


I see this shit every time I go out.  Millenials, am I right?  They need to get back into flannel shirts and the expression, "whatever."

So you leave behind not being smug, or you star being smug?

i was trying to make a smart alecy remark about the condescending "just grow up already" direction this thread is clearly going in.

Sarah's post worked out better than mine.
