PhillyKev 0 #1 April 20, 2004 These are my friends I'm talking about. Why am I the only 30 something among my friends who still does the same stuff for fun that I always have? Morbid Angel tonight and no one wants to go. Waaaa, my wife won't let me Waaaa, I have to watch the kids Waaaa, my hearing is so shot from these shows it would be like ice picks in my brain Waaaa, I don't want my jaw wired shut from the mosh pit again. Geez. Why do people stop having fun when they get old? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kallend 2,175 #11 April 20, 2004 Quote Geez. Why do people stop having fun when they get old? Let's see, I'm 58 I just built a new R/C model plane. I start building a new R/C helicopter tonight. My GF is very sexy. I just got a new car last month. I just came back from the 140 ways at Z Hills. I ordered a new Tony Suit with vented booties while I was there. I am a pilot and fly my own plane whenever I feel like it. I just won a $1,500 "Excellence in Teaching Award" My kids are all grown and have left home. You're right, I am not having ANY fun....

lawrocket 3 #17 April 20, 2004 I got an invite from my wife's uncle to go see Van halen on August 15. I doubt that with a 2 week-old youngun it would be good. My responses were: Waaaaa, my wife won't let me. Waaaaa, I need to watch the kid Waaaaa, my hearing is so shot from the wife and kids that this show would be no different, and cheaper, than being home witht he wife and kid Waaaaa, I dont' want my jaw wired shut from my wife's response to my return from this show again. Remember what she did to me when I played hookie to watch Larry Carlton? Waaaaaa, it's loud and crowded with hot chicks and kids - just like home! My wife is hotter than your wife.

PeteH 0 #22 April 21, 2004 Most people "mature" and loose their interrest in almighty death metal when they are 20-25. Meaning that their wives/girlfriends won't let 'em listen to music anymore. I know guys that ended up selling their metal collection, 'cos the boss said so. About the gigs. I usually go on my own, but Finnish metal scene is so small there's always people I know at the place.
