Sarah's Scribbles by Sarah Andersen for April 17, 2024

Don’t do drugs, Sarah. It’s all an illusion. Drugs are bad, m’kay?

Once youre 30 you can do what ever you want like play videogames for as long as you want! But do you have the time and money to play halo 24-7?

Enjoying your youth was still a good idea, though.

So true. Life after 30 was so much better.

I think kids today are figuring out who they are younger than my generation did — which is wonderful: it gives them more of their lives to live as their authentic selves.

It was a new day yesterday,but it’s an old day now…

Every day is a fresh new day.

You can do the adulting stuff while on the inside, a part of you still retains that feeling of never having grown up.

Finally something possitive for her aging.

For me, it was age 40. I finally got over family expectations and lived my own life.

The 30’s are wonderful. Looking back it was prime time.

Agreed. I wouldn’t want to go back to my 20s for anything. But if there was one age that I could stay forever, it would be 33. At that point, you’re still physically young enough to do the things you were doing in your 20s, but you’re old enough that older adults treat you like a “real“ adult.

The age I want to go back to is 50-No more crazy hormones!

30s are as overrated at 20s. 50s and 69s are better. 70s aren’t bad either (except for failing eyesight, wonky knees, and young whippersnappers who mumble so you can’t understand a word they’re saying.)

One of the worst and scariest lies adults told me when I was a kid was “These are the best years of your life.” Childhood was awful. My teens were pretty bad. But every decade since has gotten gradually better, and now life is actually good.

65 kicks your back end.

I don’t know that I would want to go back, but my 20’s were great. No complaints here. I was a bit of a dumb@ss, but still, it was a great time in my life. It helped to make me the person I am today. I’m not sure if I’ll ever grow up though.

I’ll be 62 in 10 days, and I’m the happiest I can ever remember being. But wait a few months and it could all go tits-up. It changes day to day, month to month, regardless of age, depending on my health and how well I’m getting along with coworkers, friends and family. On the whole, the trajectory has been positive!

My golden ages was university. So far everything after has kind of sucked…

My new favorite comic panel ever

I was so happy to turn 30 and start living my adult life…
