While waiting for the last few minutes to pass before I became 30 I was so incredibly depressed I thought to my self my life is over,I’m fucking old now.  
And I was right ,nothing meaningfull has happened to me since,I enjoy nothing,have done nothing and haven’t had sex with a beautiful woman since then.  
I’m looking forward to death.I’m just so sorry I’m too much of a coward to kill myself.

And I reckon that to get the misery over with you should join EXIT while you’re still capable of walking unassisted.

OK I was a bit naughty there,I was telling the truth about being depressed and I honestly thought I’d never hook up with a women ever again.  
My then wife who was much younger then me was desperately trying to cheer me up but it didn’t work.

Now that I’m a desperately old cunt I can tell you that I’ve travelled and had adrenaline inspiring experiences all over the world even more then I did pre 30,basically because I now know what I’m doing and have been friendly with attractive young women in much larger numbers then I did pre30,basically because I now know what I’m doing.

We talk about the arrogance of youth,I think that I must have had it by the bucketload,I’m V.V. glad I’ve found out the truth now.

Before everybody gets outraged my missus and I split up,she just couldn’t handle living with such an incredibly good looking guy I guess.

Glad I’m not the only fogie who’s turning 30 this week. Mine’s on the 12th.

Happy Birthday **Cluricaun** , **Big Bad Voodoo Lou** , and all the other March babies.

“I keep getting older and hairier  
On my neck, back, and derriere  
But not atop the pate.  
Dear DNA, let’s negotiate!”
