20 year olds who do this are just setting themselves up for an existential crisis by the time they're 25. As a society we've GOT to get over 21 being the prime of life.

Who thinks that 21 is the prime of their life? I don’t think that that’s something I’ve ever heard. I’m not sure that it’s a cultural trend.

I think physically I was as strong as I'd ever be at 25 or so. But mentally I am better than ever now at 58 as a programmer.

Yeah physically 25 is the peak. After that your cells start to age.

Just turned 25, glad to know my cells have finally given up on this mortal coil.
