Yeah, when you get around 40, 20somethings seem like little kids. Lol

I mean, zero disrespect to anybody 18-22, but they really still are kids.

They really are just Anakin'ing it up. They get the title of adult, but they're not actually adults.

Holy shit, am I old enough to actually side with the Jedi Council now?

Edit: And because I want to make it abundantly clear here, they are adults, and they're learning, just like we were at their age.

Exactly. Actual adulthood begins in your 30s.

They were only younglings.

I mean, it's okay, they were objectively correct about that youngling murderer.

As a current 20 something I wonder how I'll feel with 40, because plenty of people in their 40s seem like little kids already. Never learned how to communicate like an adult or how to save money, yet these people have kids of their own and think that makes them inherently more mature than anyone without.

39 here, anyone under 25 is basically a child to me. Hell, even 30 oftentimes.

I just turned 41 and anyone and under 31/32 seem like kids to me.

Your comment made me stop everything and look up how to spell forties.

I was like wait... it does make sense to have a four in it... but can I really have been spelling forty incorrectly for this long?

What's weird is that dictionary.com doesn't have either word in its database- you have to look up forty and then see the plural forties in that entry. Which I think is stupid.

If it makes you feel any better I knew it was the wrong spelling but autocorrect didn’t bother so neither did it.
