Recently, I just turned 28 years old. Time flies when you hit 21 years old, it’s like my sense of time has been irreparably destroyed by binge drinking… nah, it’s more like the calendar just got a supercharger. When I was young it always felt like my next birthday would never come, now it comes almost as fast as DV as he slaughters millions of his would-be children into a fresh new Kleenex. It feels like these things are coming so often, but it’s all good.
I feel like I’m on my way to becoming a cranky old guy. When I was younger I used to laugh at “old” people of my current age when they’d talk shit about my musical tastes. Today I listen to the hip hop of now and just think “what the hell is this bullshit?”. The only reason I even listen more than once to any of these songs is because they are annoyingly catchy and get stuck in my head. At the same time it cracks me up to think that “Rumpshaker” and “Baby Got Back” will soon be in rotation as oldies.
