I am in my 40s also. I have not changed much in the last 5 years, but then again that is just over 10% of my life. At 25, 5 years represents 20% of your life and the part of your life where most people change a lot. Perhaps we should both do something crazy and change our hairstyle for a couple months. Then we can reminisce later about that crazy period in our forties.

- bobbydavid 14y agoThat quote always makes me uncomfortable. I'm 27. I spend a fair amount of time desperately trying to uncover what it is I'm wasting my youth on, or else determining what it is I've already wasted it on. Hah. Okay, maybe that was an accidental joke.

- DavidAdams 14y agoThat quote was written specifically to make you feel uncomfortable. Older people love to quote it, because we all have a catalog of things that we'd love to go back and relive more fully, or do right the first time, or not do at all. The cruel irony of it all is that you probably don't know how you're wasting your youth until you look back on it in retrospect and facepalm. Sorry.

- gregpilling 14y agothat is awesome. I still can't grow one.
