    Things to know you’re 30

    “I wish the odd white one just went with the grain” (white hairs will grow whichever way they please, and it starts with only a few)

    “Ah, that’s gonna be my bad knee”

    “I don’t know why I have a sore spot there it just comes and goes”

    “Dental repairs cost how much?” and suddenly brushing and flossing will be a second hobby

    Tinnitus, but not like severe. Just once in awhile and often enough to keep you guessing like once a month or so.

    “There was a pop but I don’t know where.”

    “Oh my god I’m turning into my parents”

      Young people have a left knee and a right knee. Middle aged folks have a good knee and a bad knee. Old folks have a bad knee and a worse one.

      That sudden silence followed by a minutes tinnitus every couple of months is the weirdest thing.

        I had sudden tinnitus start in my left ear pulsing a high pitch with my heartbeat. Then slowly a crackling started in my right with its volume based on what I’m hearing. Now Im bombarded with noise every moment of every day. Docs have basically said “welp this is your life now”. The Antidepressants arent cheap either!

        Wtf, I thought that was just me. Although it happens less ever since I lost some weight, so my guess is it’s BP related.

        My dad went over the bars of a dirtbike when he was about 20 and landed hard on his shoulder, but walked it off.

        Came back to haunt him with a vengeance last year almost 50 years later, super high pain in that shoulder that took a surgery to go away.

        It’s usually on the packaging.

        It was in the 90s and early 2000s when I sold photo/video kit.

      And the biggest surprise: new hair starts to grow out of nowhere in the nose and ears.

      I get that this is tongue in cheek, but seriously, some people are just waiting to die and seem to find joy in tracking how their body is breaking down vs doing something about it.

      Body maintenance becomes more and more necessary as you get older. Use it or lose it.

      Do strength training on the weakest parts of your body (hips, ankles, knees, shoulder, rotator cuffs, lower back, neck) and you will thank yourself decades later.
