You tell yourself "just a few more years of this", then one day you look up and you're forty. YOU'RE FORTY, Cinemaphile!

You tell yourself "just a few more years of this", then one day you look up and you're forty.
It's just a round number dude. You weren't complaining 5 years ago.
Ops being a pos
I never saw that episode
I already coped with aging at 32 when It started hitting me really hard. I'm 36 now, and I won't need another hard cope until 45 or 50, at which I will say that I need to cope at 65
I am 62 years old and I was very upset about turning 40 and 50 but after 60 I decided I was on borrowed time anyway. I’m just amazed to be alive considering my diet consists largely of red meat and cheap wine. I have been drinking myself into a stupor and ranting about cinema for decades, well before I found this place. I will keep doing this until I perish, and I expect the same of all of you.
Cheers, anon.
Yeah I don't drink and I'm more of a gamer, but yeah cool man
Red meat isn't bad for you, dumb ass boomer.
Shut the frick up you little homosexual
The first studies about the dangers of red meat were made in nazi germany. Hitlet was a vegan, you two digit iq poltard.
yes and they were propaganda because of meat being in shorter supply moron. now theyre propaganda because israelites want to sell it to china
>Hitler was vegetarian as PROPAGANDA
holy fricking esl get some moron glasses
Based
I cant wait till I'm old as frick to stop giving a shit and watch the world burn. I mean I do that now, but it would be better as I'm dying.
Here's hoping you make it to social security payments and live the elderly N33T life
Ok, boomer
Respect
Thank God I am only 22 (I will be old and useless before I know it) (I am already useless)
You made many people's day, anon. Respect.
Why do morons think eating plants full of pesticides and minimal nutrients is healthier than what humans have been eating for 100,000 years? I don't get it
well if you arent eating organ meats you wont get enough vitamins or minerals
We've been eating plants for even longer, moron.
>my diet consists largely of red meat and cheap wine.
Ass cancer vs liver failure! Who will win? Answer: both!
hell yes
this is my exit strategy as well
being a fat unhealthy boomer until the day I die
rock on dude
absolutely amazing
In awe of you lad; I will do my best to emulate you. Godspeed.
>considering my diet consists largely of red meat
red meat being unhealthy is a meme, esquimos eat nothing but red meat and they're fine
eskimos aren't fine but it's mostly for the same reasons navaho aren't fine, alcohol and despair
What a life!
I'm 47 and every night I pray for rhe sweet release of death.
Give me your home.
>talking to zoomers like they're human beings
b-b-bashed
>I’m just amazed to be alive considering my diet consists largely of red meat and cheap wine
Not surprising in the least, stop believing israeli lies about meat and alcohol.
Dont let media bullshit you. Red meat is good one day then a week later they tell you it will give you stage 9 ass cancer. Then they change their minds a month later, repeat. And if they say a glass of wine every now and then is good for you then a whole box of wine every day will make you immortal right?
I like all of you guys but I need to get off this site, my life is literally fading before my very eyes
Unholy father of CRINGE
This'll benefits at 60 in 30 years but I'm gonna have children so at least they can watch me die
I'm logging out of my account. Been fun fellas.
Mel is that you? Keep fighting the good fight old man
I wouldn't have it any other way you ol' bastard.
>We have shitposters old enough to be my dad
>I'm old enough to be some zoomer shitposter's dad
I hate television and film
i feel like that too sometimes.
Always thought i would have shit figured out by now but i blinked and 7 years went by. My biggest regret is trusting my parents too much.
major respect dude, I wanna go that way too, hopefully I'll have enough investments to retire a little early than expected.
happy b-day
v-became a containment board a long time ago. shit is terrible 99% of the time. I got there because i use it as my personal news site.
Absolute fricking chad
Red meat and wine (even if cheap) are both significantly statistically associated with increased lifespan.
i kneel
Based old man, no one owns him, not even himself.
If I still lurk here by 30-35 I will unironically off myself
are you american by any chance? Or a bong?
>I will unironically off myself
no you won't, you won't even remember this until a year after the deadline
Thank you for your service, hope to see you around these parts awhile, anon.
you should have grandchildren by now, old man
based old man, I will probably be you if I am lucky/unlucky enough to live so long
keep on livin your life you win if you have more fun then anyone else.
If I end up like this by the time I'm in my 60s I'm going to blow my fricking brains out
I hate Cinemaphile and I hate all of you
put me in the screencap!
right on
cheers
Frick. I gotta start drinking wine.
Im 32 and it's been hitting me too. Anyway I joined one of those coding accelerators for fun which are full of zoomers and since I still look young I someway somehow got a qt 18 e-girl looking petite gf that hung out with her friends there.
Im going to prom with her this week lmao, I am very thankful I got to pretend I'm young at least one last time before I get boomed out, since I never let go of some of the cool shit I almost did as a teen.
I'll take shit that is fake and gay for 500 Alex
who hurt you?
Its unfortunate my post got called f&g so quickly, I was hoping to hear from anons in similar situations.
It's her in this pic.
Thats a man
pound that bussy for me big dawg
look at the grabbers on that lad
Nice anon.
>going to prom at 32 years old.
yes I'm sure that's allowed. Nice trans boyfriend
He should just act like a total dudebro and hit on teenagers. Wine cooler party at my place b***hes!
You know you did everything right in life when the biggest thing youve got going on is a party with 14 year olds at 32
20s cringe. Over 30 based.
Nah, brother its all cringe. Like wanting to frick an 18 year old thats cool but wanting to party with high schoolers is super cringe if i wanted to feel young again id go clubbing but then again i wasnt a reject
Alright bro take it easy. Im just amused at the idea of going to prom again in my thirties, its not like im going to be hanging out with them during the weekends.
>32 with an 18 year old gf
Incredibly based. 35 year old man with 18 year old wife is the ideal
Same for me at those early 30s.
No. Once you realize the problem you have no excuses anymore. Not going to lie you have missed some opportunities but when a door is shut a window is opened
I'm happy
>have a house
>have a good job
>have friends
>have a gf (pretty and chill)
>have a dog
>getting married next year trying for baby after that
You can turn life around, it took me 5-6 years of solid effort to turn myself from a nerdy teenager to something I'm happy with today.
>married
>having a kid
Enjoy being happy now. You’ll just be tired and sick of hearing and endless 24 hour loop of nagging, b***hing, and screaming
I'm 32. It hit me hard when I was 30 but now I'm just swinging it
I was already age coping at 19 and did so mostly in my 20s. Now at 33 besides fear of decreased metabolism I feel fine, especially considering some of my peers are barely functioning and still living at home.
>Really the only people who think like john redcorn are exactly his type.
>were in peak form back in the day
Except Redcorn is in peak form. Most 40 something men would kill for his physique and lifestyle of banging housewives on the side.
>still living at home
yeah where else would you live
>ESL moment
I'm 31 and since I turned 28 I've been feeling like I'm two steps from death. I feel like my life is basically already over at this point and there's not enough time left to do anything.
i'm 32 and i've done NOTHING with my life. i have only just now figured out what i want to do and i'm going back to school soon. it's going to be fricking awkward being around little zoomies again but whatever. also i'll be like 37 when i start my career. yike.
I remember feeling like I'd be the old man when I went back to university at 30. There was a dude over 50 in my class and no one cared. Funnily enough he ended up becoming the most successful from the class in the field post graduation too.
Yeah, in my plumbing course everyone was early 20s except two guys who were in their late 40s. They were the best students and probably also the only ones who actually because plumbers which is for some reason difficult in Ontario.
>for some reason
It's called 'Our moron Government', anon.
Our government is not moronic. It's unironically malevolent.
Just fully accept that you could die any day and you'll stop giving a shit about bs like that. You'll be free forever, no copes needed.
I'm fully conscious I'm going to die but still care about shit. I'm tired of life but not really ready to die.
>tfw i’m reaching that age and i’m a virgin and never had a job
Is it too late for me bros?
If you're a virgin by 40, it was too late for you when you were born. You must be an uncharismatic hideous smelly beast.
making women give you sex = charisma? weird considering women’s sexual selection process isn’t even initiated or designed by them but by the government and education system/ media
so in order to be “charismatic” to women you need to behave as the elites have forced you to, aka being a puppet on a string/ slave
massive cope. None of that shit matters when you're good looking. Whoops!
i agree, women are shallow and don’t care about personality
>Whoops!
>lmao
why do these creatures come to Cinemaphile? Wasn't like this just a few years ago
shut up homosexual. LOL or LMAO or even KEK has been internet slang for 20 years you prudish pants shitter
daily reminder that if cellphones were blocked from posting we wouldnt have to read posts like this
what do we have to do to get rid of "my epic heckin secret Cinemaphile club" gays like you?
>The redditors, mentally stunted from poor genetics, futilely attempt to troll.
you hate to see it
you're gonna be futilely attempting to breathe once i unload this belly full of hot piss down your throat, boy
thats a little better at least
just you wait handsome. im 30% bladder by volume.
Achievable natty?
12-24 natty ice daily maybe
im on desktop. keep stamping around and shitting your diaper though
I've been here since 2008 you dumb frick.
Yeah having confidence, being a providing member of society and having emotional intelligence are such behaviours forced by the elite lmao.
being a beta? yes?
Thanks rabbi!
Or that I just never really tried, and eventually got to the point where I honestly feel like having to constantly deal with another person all day every day is more trouble than it’s worth for occasional sex. I’m past the point of no return as far as having kids, but I’ve got siblings with multiple kids, so the genetic pressure is kind of off.
I only really ever get bummed during the holidays, and only then for like a day or two, or when I’m at a place that I enjoy, but you’re seen as a creep if you go alone (like theme parks).
ayo this anon gets bummed in theme parks
Hah what a gay. Who would even go to a theme park alone? That shit is for groups of people, period.
37 here and it's like that for me. I realized 10 years ago I don't fit in with people and I'll never be normal or have a wife or girlfriend.
I am only child and my parents have never ever placed any overt or implicit pressure on me to breed. They weren't even planning on having me, I just happened and they went with it. But they never wanted any more, themselves. Dad's joke when I was growing up (said with love), was "One is PLENTY!" Mom even got her tubes tied around age 45 or so, they wanted to be absolutey sure of not having any more. When I was little I would occasionally wonder what having a brother is like, but it never bothered me too much. It's great when everything funnels directly to you when you're raised in a stable household.
Still, mom has recently taken to playing with the cousin's daughter, who I have dubbed "the proxy grandchild". Currenty mom is sewing some cute stuffed animal or similar for her. Some sort of evolutionary grandma instinct trying to express itself by whatever means available, I suppose.
>having to constantly deal with another person all day every day
my main reason Im a loner also. im just a guy who wants to whatever he wants when he feels like it. i dont want to be leashed
then like pay for a prostitute and go out for coffee first?
>pay for a prostitute
People say this but don't explain how.
Christ go to a escort website.
not that you should take this as advice or do this, or go around asking people, but you can proposition thots on dating apps
>moronic euros think hookers are that easy to get
Try being a burger where every escort puts you through a screening process asking you to dox yourself.
what are you doing that is so important and will be negatively impacted by your doxxing?
Just frick a prostitute.
It being "too late" is just a cope frickheads tell themselves/others so they can continue being a homosexual loser forever.
It literally makes no sense. Even if you were a piece of shit for 80 years and did nothing with your life, you can squeeze in a couple years of good stuff before you kick the bucket. It's all up to you and it does not matter what age you are or where you are in life. Every single day you are faced with a choice: stagnate, backtrack, or move forward. That's entirely up to you. It's never "too late" until your heart rate flatlines. Then it's too late, sure.
Get a job immediately (and GED if you don't have it). Even a shitty fast food job. You need experience working to get better jobs. Start now.
>ohhh no im 38 i only have 1 more lifetime do something with my life
Anon you can do anything.
I'm 40 and have never worked a day in my life.
Its honestly not that bad.
Really the only people who think like john redcorn are exactly his type.
>were in peak form back in the day
>thought youth would last forever
>didn't plan for a future, just planned for now
As a result. The future is the now and someone like john probably thought he would die is some sort of exciting explosion, but it sounds like to me he's just denying reality.
Fitting as his son will probably never love him as a father even while he cucked dale.
>thought youth would last forever
>didn't plan for a future, just planned for now
I'd say 90% of the population lives week to week with little regard for the future.
90% of people are normies
Checks out
Normies plan. You're a grown man who lives with his mom
Most NEETs I know are rich from bitcoin just like me lool.

Well anon. Either start making plans to change your job or cave out something good at your current

I'm 22 and constantly stressed about my future. I just want everything to go well. I don't want to be stuck in a dead end job living paycheck to paycheck, passing my childhood trauma onto my future kids and divorcing my future wife because I only married her because I felt trapped.
I want to be happy.
why tf dont degreed losers just join the fricking military as an officer?
I guarantee you'll grow tf up
>anon says he just wants to be happy
>(you) suggest he joins the military
I don't care if he does or does not go to war, but that's an awful suggestion.
>I don't care if he does or does not go to war, but that's an awful suggestion.
why
>tfw been on Cinemaphile since 12 years old
Can they ban me retroactively if I'm of age now?
I empathize with Redcorn because I’m thirty. Ive been doing music as a hobby since i was 25 but i feel like i suck
low iq greentext strawman vomit
you lose
>i win!!! I win the Cinemaphile game

yes your low iq projection is actually my real opinion which means YOU actually win!

I'm not ready.
2 years for me.
fellow 86bro
30 to 37 have been the best years of my life, got in shape, got a great job, travelled the world, got into spirituality. Ive had more sex in the last 5 years than the rest of my life combined
I hope the 40s dont hit too hard
Congrats bro! Stay healthy and make the next 5 even better.
40 here. I gave up years ago. I’m here forever.
If you didn't marry your highschool sweetheart then it's unironically already over for you. Either embrace a life of bitter solitude or else allow some strange woman to 'settle' for you and become a henpecked husk of a man
33 here, but I feel like 50+ I made the mistake of doing military shit for over 10 years and it has royally fricked my joints and back up. Medically retired now and getting VA neetbux but honestly it wasnt worth it.
So I guess Ill just live out my years shitposting on Cinemaphile
It's not the military shit that ruined your back, it's you being a fricking moron who doesn't know how to properly lift things
Nah, never hurt it lifting. Jumps, and rucks blew it out. Also taking uncle sams dick
Black person how the FRICK are you keeping your spine if you hurt it by JUMPING
Airborne jumps you dingleberry
Why didn't all the others guys doing that ruin their body?
Let me guess: you're obese
bummer. I'm 33 and feel fricking awesome. Hope you are able to overcome that damage.
>and feel fricking awesome
that's the problem, if you're ok with where you are you might stay there the rest of your life
Turned 30 today. Seems inconsequential imo.
The only upside I guess is all of you are getting old with me. Cinemaphile average age keeps going up as zoomers are all phoneposters and can't get to grips with Cinemaphile interface
Happy birthday anon!
thanks fellas
I started losing my hair at 18, did combovers when I was 19 & 20, then, was forced to shave my head. Shortly after my 21st birthday.
Yeah, my twenties fricking sucked; for more reasons than even those. With that, & starting college a year late, I developed a bizarre obsession with age despite being in my "good years." Lasted through a lot of my twenties. I am trying not to be a doomer in my thirties, refusing to let aging get me down, again.
>today
Happy Birthday!
It is my, birthday, too... I'm 32.
Cinemaphiles interface is perfect for phones what are you on about
If you already know what you are doing, sure. but for zoomers who are here for the first time it must be overwhelming to their adhd
Happy birthday Anon.
Once I'm 40 I can finally lose my virginity. Hopefully I'll still be able to achieve an erection.
>tfw turn 34 or 35 this year i dont remember which or care
what the frick
I enjoyed watching John Redcorn’s midlife crisis spiral out of control in later seasons of KotH. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.
Are you being sarcastic? He wasn't a nice guy.
sorry about your autism, anon
Thanks evil anon
>26 in a week
atleast I have a job I guess haha...
I'm 41. Do whatever you want with this information
Oh god
I don’t think it’s realistic for guys like red corn to get a mid life crisis this, irl those guys just don’t care and that’s why women love them
Bill would have been a better candidate but I think it would have been too depressing
>You tell yourself "just a few more years of this
tat's not what i said
i said "it's over"
>mfw just turned 40 last year
>was pretty fit before, lifted weights all the time, a little pudgy but never any bad reports from the doctor
>2 weeks after 40 gallbladder exploded, had to have massive surgery almost a liver transplant
>recovered from that
>2 months later kidneys failed out of the blue, had to spend 3 months on dialysis
I'm doing better now but getting old so far has sucked shit.
>kidneys and gallbladder fail at 40
>bro but i used to totally fit!
No you fricking weren't.
In short, enjoy the blessing of strength while you have it and do not bewail it when it is gone, unless, forsooth, you believe that youth must lament the loss of infancy, or early manhood the passing of youth. Life's race-course is fixed; Nature has only a single path and that path is run but once, and to each stage of existence has been allotted its own appropriate quality; so that the weakness of childhood, the impetuosity of youth, the seriousness of middle life, the maturity of old age—each bears some of Nature's fruit, which must be garnered in its own season.
Undoubtedly, as it seems to me at least, satiety of all pursuits causes satiety of life. Boyhood has certain pursuits: does youth yearn for them? Early youth has its pursuits: does the matured or so-called middle stage of life need them? Maturity, too, has such as are not even sought in old age, and finally, there are those suitable to old age. Therefore as the pleasures and pursuits of the earlier periods of life fall away, so also do those of old age; and when that happens man has his fill of life and the time is ripe for him to go.
Redcorn was the real cuck all along. Dale knew about the affair and it didn't bother him.

2 year old wizard here. I can now sense woman around corners.
DUDE IM GETTING OLD AAAAAAAAAAAAAA time moves forward
That was my youth?
I'm 25 how do I cope
32 here. Every board feels like it's roughly the same age group except Cinemaphile, that place is a fricking daycare center now.
we're all getting older that's for sure. I think that's why I find it hard to leave.
I tried to find a discord server to settle into and they all laughed at me when I said I was 30. Just fricking open mic laughter, calling me a boomer, asking me why I wasn't with my kids etc. all servers were like this.
Cinemaphile is honestly one of the last places on earth i can be myself and everyone else is just as fricking weird as me so its all good
I wouldn't mind the younger generations laughing at me if they weren't such easily offended humorless edrama obsessed homosexuals
>oh no the young people laughed at me
Why didn't you call them permavirgin Black personhomosexuals wasting their 20s away in discord?
How the hell do you find discord servers? I took 2013-2020 off the grid and I literally have no clue how to make friends online anymore.
You're doing it wrong. What you're supposed to do is find a mentally damaged teen with daddy issues and groom them when they're 16. Then frick them as soon as they're legal in your state.
homie you are on Cinemaphile nobody here has the social skills, appeal or patience to groom.
Every single time I see the headlined “groomed and raped” it’s some Cinemaphile looking mfer. Which I do not understand whatsoever, and never will. I was intimidated talking to my hot 19 yo cousin.
>Intimidated
lol, lmao even. Do zoomers really?
I’m a millennial. I can talk to women my age, but a teenage girl is a different animal.
All the good websites have stopped taking in new users. You can tell good websites if generally people stopped trying to join them. That's why Reddit and twitter are shit and tumblr has become unironically good.
It's either underage b& zoomers or full on 30 something millennial redditors. No one has sense of being clever, insightful, or irreverent, you're either a moronic child or a pretentious adult manchild with nothing in between.
The biggest change I noticed in Cinemaphile was around (of course 2016) where it’s like now clearly ironic or silly posts will get replied to with people taking it absolutely and frustratingly seriously.
This. I found a bit of a better audience on heyuri but it will probably not last. They're mostly young and can't seriouspost for shit as a result, but at least people can still have fun, there. It feels a lot like a lite version of what Cinemaphile used to be, which is far better than the rest of the internet, or what Cinemaphile has become. Still, it's not enough. What the frick happened to people? Where even are all the posters that used to be around? Is there a secret club somewhere I haven't been invited to? They can't simply have vanished or become brainless nuMeme regurgitating zombies, surely?
I'm honestly convinced the populace of the western world in general is in some weird state of depression and melancholy right now. People in public are rude, aggressive and unfriendly to a degree they weren't a decade before, and as goofy as it sounds to say this on Cinemaphile of all places, most modern media is extremely depraved and cynical to an uncomfortable degree. It feels like most people are miserable and burnt out.
Agree with both the post and the pic. But I want to believe there are some oases somewhere that we're just not privy of.
As someone who’s been here since 2008 on and off I’ve been coming back less and less. Usually I just say frick it when the mods permanently ban me for them not understanding a joke but it’s been happening more and more. Can barely last a week here without posting some random nonsense in someone’s jannybait thread and getting sweeped up with the rest.
I've been here since 2007 and spend the entire day with tabs open. Even when I had a job that forced me to socialise with people 8 hours a day I still came here after. I'm never leaving.
All I remember from the first time I came here was pages of mudkips and a gaping butthole. Dunno what year.
Hard to tell. You could be talking about 2005 when both memes were in full flight but both never went away. Goatse went mainstream in 2006 - 2007 and mudkips was still around then so who knows?
the bans are getting hilarious, it's every night now just for replying to a thread that made some troon mod assmad. i always thought bans added creative tension to the board but they're going too far, they'll kill it.
mods ruined Cinemaphile already. They used to be funny in an elitist way where they would just purge peoples threads for having shit taste. then they started banning board meme threads and allowing generals. I haven’t been there in a year or two.
i haven't been banned in a while but there are some threads i want to post in but don't want to chance a ban
Is this place really that heavy in millennials/older? I'd kind of assumed the age demographic was roughly the same as it had ever been and all the complaining about zoomers was just other zoomers doing it but there do seem to be more of these threads about getting older lately. I guess it's true we really are here forever.
>The same as it's ever been
Most users here were teenagers when the site launched.
Cinemaphile is a millennial core site
i don't think anyone actually leaves
60% of us are core millenials (88-95) The remaining 40% are zoomers. +/- 1% Gen Xers/boomers.
I'm 99% only on Cinemaphile so maybe that's why, but it really does feel like I've grown up with the users on here over the last 10-15 years (didn't come to Cinemaphile specifically until 2013/2014)
What other boards do you guys browse?
I like Cinemaphile,/k/, /misc/ for lulz since /b/ is dead
Why does time goes fast when you get older ? It's bullshit
Flies can react so quickly because their central nervous system is so small the information can travel from the eyes to the brain to the wings in
a tiny fraction of second.
As you get older your brain slows down so it appears that time goes faster as your brain processes less information a second.
Your brain starts to care less about little details so your perception of time moves faster. If you do something interesting and stimulating time will feel normal again.
This is why it feels like you do 'so much' as a kid, and also whilst on holiday.
it's also why people have very little memory of what they were doing during covid. each day was the same, and thus the brain retained nothing
This, going to work is removing 8 hours of "nothing" from your life because your brain doesn't WANT to remember anything from it beyond maybe some interesting shit happening with your co-workers.
When you're a kid, you really can't stop your brain from remembering shit which is why being bored was so painful as a kid.
I’m 34 and I haven’t ever had a job, I’ve never moved out of my parent’s rental property, I’ve never had a gf, I’ve never had sex, I’ve never driven a car, and I sleep for 15 or so hours every day. I don’t leave the house for any reason and I haven’t left for over 3 years. I stay inside where I feel safe. My parents order groceries for me and when they die I don’t know what will happen but I am not going to go outside or get a job and I will not change how I live my life, I’d rather die. My parents haven’t spoken to me in 7 years and I just don’t care.
The only things that are real to me are video games and anime. I get all my social interactions on here. I am not going to change and no one can make me, but someone will keep taking care of me because I’m not doing it myself. I have 3 siblings so one of them will have to foot the bill. I don’t pay rent to my parents and I’m not going to.
Bro we need the hot girls Japan’s government hires to fix hikkiNEETs for people like you. I was a hikkiNEET for 4 years doped up on SSRIs after I graduated high school and I really blame my parents a lot for letting that happen. I was a b***h ass homosexual reading manga for 16 hrs and jerking of 12 times a day. If I were my dad I would’ve punched me in the face one morning and screened “GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER” at the top of my lungs. I was too much of a b***h to press charges, I just needed a wakeup (my mom dying of cancer accomplished that tho lmfao).
Holy frick dude.. do something with your life. Why would your brothers or sisters want to pay for you to sit around and play vidyas all day? Even people with legit disabilities are more productive.
I dont have a job right now but I pay my own bills and I am taking college courses. You should have figured out how to adult well before you even hit 30
If I was your parents I would have stopped paying for your shit long ago when it was obvious you didnt want a life, and you dont even talk to them
I stopped caring about aging once I hit 30.
Now my goal in life is to become an attractive mature oji-san.
This is the problem with "muh money to make more money" mentalities. If you want to do something, do it. Unless you're trying to set up your son for a trustfund homosexual life that you didn't have I see no point to dying rich.
About nine months to go here. I don't realistically see myself having sex before that point.
Haven't given a frick about aging/dying after a breakthrough psychedelic trip. Literally just chill and don't get too attached to your Earth-suits bros.
You look great John!
Every day feels like an eternity, but looking back, months feel like days.
>be 38
>discuss this with my bro who's 33
>we both agree we still feel 20-25 like we never matured past that mindset
>it dawns on us that our mom and dad who are 65 and 66 probably feel the same, still 20-somethings but stuck in increasingly more frail, less capable bodies
And I'm married with a growing nest egg and no debts by the way. This shit creeps up on you and in the end the best way to look at life and self-awareness is as a bonus of existence, not a given. Enjoy it while it lasts because it really doesn't last long.
Toronto...what a shithole.
>Toronto
Not even close
Yeah I don't really feel any different from my twenties
I don’t feel any different from 18 so why is it creepy for me to date one now that I’m 27 :~~*((
>didnt figure this out when you were in your 20s
>turning 26 in july
>mfw watching the last 10 years of my life go by in a blur
>29
>i was only 24 a year ago
thats literally how it feels
Covid did not fricking help, genuinely feels I died for a couple years even though quite a lot actually happened in my life
I got off Cinemaphile many years ago and started having sex. Now I'm in Japan and frick a few times a week with different women. It's about as empty as browsing image boards till 4am. The times I was truly happy was during long term relationships, and I left one to come to Japan and bust meaningless nuts. I'm living the dream of many people and I don't really want it.
most people never realize that reality itself is fake and gay
Pretty much. I guess it's better than being stuck online. I just come here occasionally because it's still the funniest place online.
>thinking about thta mission hill clip about being set by 24...ten years ago.
40 ain't that old, 80 is getting up there, but you might still live another 10 or 20 years
40 is 8 years away from me and I'm still a hugless handless kissless virgin whos only ever worked in shitty food/retail jobs for minimum wage. In a year I'm going to become homeless when my parents kick me out.
I completely wasted my 20s and my 30s aren’t doing much better. I wish I wasn’t such a pussy so I could buy a gun and shoof myself.
Get a gun and shoot someone else instead. Not only is the pressure from having to have a nice day gone by letting someone else take the opportunity if you're so lucky, but you can also get catharsis for your poor life quality by enacting vengeance upon whoever you don't like. Otherwise you can do like the dude who bombed the FBI, or you can follow in the foodsteps of teddy bear kaczinsky.
Be funny if you were the one he wound up shooting
Why would it be funny? He gets to do something with himself before going. Why wouldn't the man of action win over the man of inaction in the end? It's only fair.
If you're a loser under 50, and you're tired of it, do yourself a favor and learn a skilled trade. Call local companies, unions, whatever. If you aren't a complete sack of shit, you can find trades work. If you pay your dues for a couple of years, it'll turn into a pretty decent job. And very secure. I know so many guys that turned their lives around after 30 through trades.
Probably the single dumbest post I've ever seen in Cinemaphile history. Are you getting paid for these? If they were a tiny bit better they'd be funny, but the way you make those posts, they're just sad. Oh so sad and pathetic.
t. mcwagie
What else should young losers do? Learn to code? Yeah, that was 10 years ago's advice. Have fun trying to get into that industry as an over 30 male with zero experience.
I turned 30 back in March, I’ve been coping hard with aging. I often feel like there were a lot of things I missed out on in my 20s, mostly social things and making the kinds of friends I want to have, girls, house, kids, etc. I was already born when my parents were 25. But at least I’m almost finished with my masters program, have a physics degree, traveled a ton for someone my age, and have sailed on multiple Scripps institute of oceanography research cruises. Whatever else I missed out on, at least I’m going to have a fun as shit research career
>Whatever else I missed out on, at least I’m going to have a fun as shit research career
>only has a master's at 30
>fell for the research meme
>hasn't even started the PhD yet
OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHA
You will know a hell you didn't even know existed.
Your doomposting holds no power over me.
Frick man, this feels like a personal attack against myself.
>2003 was 50 years ago already
There is no changing this world.
Either accept it and love it or live in your own fantasy land.
I opted for the latter and I'm doing fine.
Seeing the Cinemaphile userbase age in real time is interesting because after a few years I expect most boomer anons here to be ranting about their vision/hearing loss, back pain and their inevitable dementia.
>t. based zoomer
>all the boomers upload their minds into Cinemaphile
>they become an internet zoo where people can laugh at demented old schizoids ranting about media
>at the heat death of the universe, long after humanity has left the galactic stage, on some usb drive stranded on a remote, uninhabited planet, Cinemaphile is still arguing how gravity and acceleration works with a portal gun
Anyone else surprised they've made it as long as they have?
>As he lay stretched out on his camp bed beyond the circle of the oil lamp daydreaming over his own life Drogo was suddenly overcome by sleep. Meantime, that very night (had he but known it he might perhaps not have been inclined to sleep) that very night time began to slip by him beyond recall.
>Up to then he had gone forward through the heedless season of early youth—along a road which to children seems infinite, where the years slip past slowly and with quiet pace so that no one notices them go. We walk along calmly, looking curiously around us; there is not the least need to hurry, no one pushes us on from behind and no one is waiting for us; our comrades, too, walk on thoughtlessly, and often stop to joke and play. From the houses, in the doorways, the grown-up people greet us kindly and point to the horizon with an understanding smile. And so the heart begins to beat with desires at once heroic and tender, we feel that we are on the threshold of the wonders awaiting us further on. As yet we do not see them, that is true—but it is certain, absolutely certain that one day we shall reach them.
>But at a certain point we turn round, almost instinctively, and see that a gate has been bolted behind us, barring our way back. Then we feel that something has changed; the sun no longer seems to be motionless but moves quickly across the sky; there is barely time to find it when it is already falling headlong towards the far horizon. We notice that the clouds no longer lie motionless in the blue gulfs of the sky but flee, piled one above the other, such is their haste. Then we understand that time is passing and that one day or another the road must come to an end.
>At a certain point they shut a gate behind us, they lock it with lightning speed and it is too late to turn back. But at that moment Giovanni Drogo was sleeping, blissfully unconscious, and smiling in his sleep like a child.
>Some days will pass before Drogo understands what has happened. Then it will be like an awakening. He will look around him incredulously; then he will hear a din of footsteps at his back, will see those who awoke before him running hard to pass him by, to get there first. He will feel the pulse of time greedily beat out the measure of life. There will be no more laughing faces at the windows but unmoved and indifferent ones. And if he asks how far there is still to go they will, it is true, still point to the horizon—but not good-naturedly, not joyfully. Meanwhile his companions will disappear from view. One gets left behind, exhausted; another has outstripped the rest and is now no more than a tiny speck on the horizon.
>At last Drogo will be all alone and there on the horizon stretches a measureless sea, motionless, leaden.
>Now he will be tired; nearly all the houses along the way will have their windows shut and the few persons he sees will answer him with a sad gesture. The good things lay further back—far, far back and he has passed them by without knowing it. But it is too late to turn back; behind him swells the hum of the following multitude urged on by the same illusion but still invisible on the white road.
>At this moment Giovanni Drogo is sleeping in the third redoubt. He is smiling in his dreams. For the last time there come to him by night the sweet sights of a completely happy world. It is as well that he cannot see himself as he will one day be—there at the end of the road, standing on the shores of the leaden sea under a grey, monotonous sky. And around him there is not a house, not one human being, not a tree, not even a blade of grass. And so it has been since time immemorial.
Based tartar waiter. You'll see them one day against the horizon and will rush to meet them.
I'm 25 about to be 26 in a month and haven't even had a job yet. Days go by now very quickly as if it were nothing. It felt like it was the start of the year just last week. Frick man.
man i forget uni was so many years ago but seems like last year
I remember discovering Cinemaphile when I was 22 and just about to graduate from university. Soon I'll be 38. All those years, gone like tears in the rain.
You can breathe. You can blink. You can cry. Hell, you're all gonna be doing that.
i'm shidding my pants too, i just unleashed a really wet fart and i'm too scared to stand up cuz it might drip down my track pants onto the floor
I turn 29 in two weeks and sometimes I'll feel like a 40 year old, and sometimes I'll feel like I"m still in high school. I don't know how people are still sane after 40 years though, especially after 60 or 70. I'm already bored and ready to check out.
i turned 29 in the beginning of may and just realized june's almost over
Yeah, that too. Just felt like New Years yesterday and now it's almost July. Frick sake.
I'm 25 and feel the same.
hello I am 26 and going to neck myself when I turn 27 the day after, have a good day
>Life is over at 27
Seriously? I would give everything I own and then some to go back in time to 27
well anon if I could swap bodies and then blow my brains out I would
>turn 31
>only attracted to women 18-22
>in 2023 that’s extremely taboo now
I remember 10 years ago people would say they’re consenting adults it’s not a big deal, now people think you’re a super predator rapist for being in a consensual relationship with a young adult
