The trouble with aging

You know how so many grown ups claim that kids now days are growing stranger and they never can understand what it is they're talking about? Well that's their fault.

Being the genius I am, I've worked it out that when we are born, we a are given a set list of topics we will speak about through out life. We all start off in the same ways, we'll discuss something until its had holes ripped into it and then we get something new to talk about,  kinda like chewing the same piece of gum over and over.

Little kids always speak about fairies and unicorns and imaginary friends, then you get those self proclaimed "pre-teens" who are obsessed with all form of gadgets, normal teenagers who are all on drugs, those twenty something people who only talk about making it, those in their thirties wondering why they still haven't made it and in your forties you finally realize that it was because all you ever did as a youngster was park off on drugs and this goes on until at the age of 80, the only thing left to talk about is knitting. Thats why all the cool old people are the ones that conserved their topics and spoke about cough drops and hip replacements at age 14 so that they could sit around with kids now and speak about nothing of any vague interest.

I know my group of friends, we've gone past that stage of baby stuff, gadgets don't phase us but instead of being normal and going on about heroin and tiggeryumyums, we spend endless hours speaking about poo.
