There’s a saying: “Father Time is undefeated.” There is no escaping getting older. You may feel 28 mentally, but the sounds you make just by getting up from a chair can be a sobering reminder of how advanced you are in age.
Photos of mementos and references from your youth can also reinforce that feeling you’ve gotten old, and pretty quickly. This subreddit is filled with these posts, making many people who see them curse under their breath after realizing how quickly all those years flew by.
We collected some of those posts for your reading pleasure today. While they may bring in some nostalgia, don’t be surprised if you also feel a palpable sense of wistfulness.
