30 is old, 40 is really old, 50 is really really old, so on and so forth. A lot of people get offended by this, but young is 20 or less and middle aged is ~37. Embrace it. Be and live your age. People pretending their 22 when their in their 50s are fucking sad. Be active if you want, but you're not 22 and you will never be that again, and that's cool.

Thing is, young people don't get to tell me what I have to do. I don't give a shit what younger people deem appropriate for my age. If I want to wear a hoodie at 50 then I'll wear a hoodie. Now get off my lawn.

Wait, since when is wearing a hoodie a young person thing?

Sure, do whatever you want, but if you go to the club when you're in your 40s, 50s, or 60s, you're going to be the old person.

Have you heard that the over 50's are doing day time raving. Back home by nine/ten to sleep.

Day time rave

Cool. Sounds like an old person rave.
