Almost a quarter of my department was born between 1994 and 1998, so they're all about turning thirty right now.
Good grief they're being so insufferable about it, acting as if their very lives are basically over and there's nothing left to look forward to.
I'm in my mid-thirties and having an awesome time of it. I got my life together! Finally recovered from the childhood trauma! Bought a house! Adopted cats! Made actual friends! Learned a dozen new hobbies!
The point here is that if you go into something expecting to be miserable... you will be. And also that youth desperately need older friends so they know life doesn't come to a screeching halt at some arbitrary number.
