Happy birthday, hopefully you had a great day. I'm 33 now and I love it personally. Yeah I'm a little balder, a little wrinklier, but you know? I'm living a good life and I'm happy and grateful for what I have.
As long as my dick keeps working, I'll be happy. Once that's gone, just fucking shoot me.
 
It's said that those who reside in Heaven will appear in the form of their 30's.

In other words, being in your 30's is a great blessing and a decade that many of the greats found their peak in life :)

I got my shit together in my 30s. Met my wife when I was 30, fixed my career, got a house and cats - I’ve never had it so good. 30s is young enough that your body isn’t fucked yet, old enough that you have some cash and know what the fuck you’re doing.

pretty much

Don't feel any different. It's just a number right now, don't feel any pain from saying I'm 30. Fuck all this "feeling old" shit that's for people who are out of touch.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a guy dude. Although make no mistake, you’re in decline. Fortunately men aren’t valued for looks nearly as much as our utility. So just stay useful👍

I remember hitting 30 (I'm 34 closing in on 35) and feeling no different too. You're still in young person invincibility mode, but it won't take that many more years to change. I gotta say, for me, things are different now. I stay in good shape, but if you lack an exercise routine and have poor sleep habits, it tends to fuck you up much more as you age. If you don't take better care of yourself now, you'll regret it later.

Once you reach 35 I believe that’s when things start to take a turn for the worst physically. Most professional athletes retire at around that age because their bodies aren’t the same. So mid to late 30s is older territory in my opinion.

The main difference I noticed is that after 30 I couldn't tank alcohol anymore. My body just won't handle it the same as it did before.

That and cold. I feel a lot colder now anytime the temperature drops. I could easily tank it before and not be bothered, now I just wear an extra coat, lol.

For me I was always a lightweight and I learned my limits pretty early after an incident when I was 18 put me in hospital (bottle of vodka in 45 minutes - I remember nothing but I was apparently critically ill). The big things that went for me were:

- my ability to eat and not get fat
- my ability to pull an all nighter

I remember when I was 20 I had a uni assignment due in the next day at 12 - I started at midnight, got it done at 11:30 and handed it in at 11:55 and got top marks. If I tried that shit now I’d actually die.
