Married Gen X men? Yeah, they’re not exactly lining up for the “young hot girl” trend. They’re just hoping to find someone who can make a decent pot roast and knows how to use a real map instead of relying on their phone for every little thing. And fart cars? Those things used to scream “I’m the life of the party,” now they just scream “I’m an unpaid intern at a mechanic shop.” Getting old? Sure, it’s got its perks — like losing the ability to remember what you walked into a room for and discovering new ways to hurt yourself just by sitting. But honestly, being young today is like living in a constant episode of Black Mirror — overpriced everything, TikTok challenges that could get you arrested, and your personal life being a public spectacle. So yeah, getting old’s a drag, but at least you don’t have to pretend you’re “fluent” in memes just to fit in.
