Wasn't last year enough?! And the year before?

EVERY YEAR THE SAME DAY.

It haunts me! It's out to get me!

I'M DOOMED! I'M GETTING OLDER AND OLDER AND SOMEDAY I WILL DIE OF OLD AGE!

Before that happens, you will have the fashionable pleasure of your ear 
hairs growing out like house-elf tufts, and your nostril hairs looking like 
flies have crawled up your nose and died, leaving their back legs hanging 
out.

Happy rant day!   Enjoy!  :-)

Ooooh, don't forget cumulative earlobe growth and Male Pattern Baldness....

But then, if he were female, he could contemplate watching parts which 
were once 34-B gradually becoming 42-long.....

Happy birthday, Tim!

Thank you everyone for the kind and funny wishes!

I'm not really a ranter (is that a word?) in regards to my birthday and 
age, so I hope you all got my drift that my post was originally meant to 
be funny. I'm 26 now, and pessimistic peeps would say I'm heading 
straight to 30 now (as if 30 were a bad age!), but I don't fuss that 
much about my age. 26 isn't old, unless you're spending time with teens 
or twents, and then you're wise and experienced all of a sudden, which I 
honestly don't feel like. ;-)

All in all, birthdays are just days to celebrate and have fun, invite 
friends and family and make yourself promises you won't hold (just like 
New Year´s ;-). The joys of life, strictly speaking! :-)

So, thanks again for all your wishes here, it was nice stopping by every 
now and then and seeing them increase in number. :-)

Regards,
Tim

Ditto! And i'm only 29! Actually, what I really miss is the college
lifestyle. So far it seems to have been the peak of my creativity. Writing a
lot, playing a lot of guitar -- with other people no less, painting even.
Life's not so bad right now though :)

I had been thinking of exactly that quote.  A lot of people, when they are 
young and have hot-looking, healthy bodies in their prime, don't have their 
emotional act together and lack a clue how to really live it and capitalise 
on their gifts of youth: health, beauty and time.

By the time they get their head sorted out and wanting to go for it, their 
bodies are already falling apart   I was one.  :-\

"So you see young Zaphod, when thinking of ways to describe what you are 
making of your life, I find the prhase 'pig's ear' tends to spring to 
mind."

(Yes, skipped a bit, but the next lines from where your response came 
from are a bit shorter)

I'm 16. I guess you would *kill* me if I make a post like Tim's, ranting 
about being old? xD

Well, I wouldn't, but largely because I don't want to do 16 again.  For 
me, that was a year of maximum suckage.  17 wasn't bad, because I got to 
spend a couple weeks in the USSR on a concert tour, but really anything 
before 25 or so isn't something I care to repeat.

You can avoid dying of old age by getting killed by something else -
