I work in a school. I laugh and joke a lot with the teens. Sometimes I forget I'm not one of them and I'm 40. I'm just as immature as them, just more experienced. A lot of my coworkers forget what it was like to be a kid and how boring most of us are. School sucks, remember?
i crossed that threshold a little 2 years ago and both my eye sight and hearing immediately started calling it quits once i hit 40. i always thought that being a stereotypical broke ass millennial would keep me young so long as i didn't have a lawn or medicare to obsess over, but it's clear that it's not true since i've lost count how many times gen-z'ers misidentified me as a boomer and fellow millennials keep insisting on pushing the millennial birth year further up.
