So today I’ve turned 30. The big 3-0. The “sage age”, which I’m pretty sure someone somewhere calls it…what, can you prove me wrong?
I’ve heard a lot of theories about time speeding up as you get older. Now that I’m 30 for more than half a day and experienced in the matter, I can say with some authority – that’s totally true. Not only does the time go faster, I’ve been able to establish that it goes exactly sixty times faster.
“Wow, such precision! How did he do this? Did he run a relativity experiment with a control group of teenage monkeys he sent to space?”, you may be wondering. Actually the answer is much more simple, but I do like the way you think, my quirky friend. You see, a few days ago my girlfriend and I were at a metro station in Copenhagen. For the Danish crowd thirsting for specifics, it was Bella Center Station. This is where I’ve stumbled upon and documented this conclusive evidence of time flowing 60 times faster:
So now you know! Enjoy and cherish this newly found knowledge. In the meantime, I’m going to follow up on that interesting suggestion of yours and go find some teenage monkeys…
HAHAHAHA! I can’t believe you caught the time cheating… I can only agree with you Dan, that time unfortunately goes much faster after the strike of 30. Soon you’ll get a little amnesiac, forgetting the punchline of your stories, putting milk into the dishwasher instead of the fridge, not being able to remember your girlfriends name, you start feeling pain in various parts of your body that you have never felt before….I can go on and on….being 30 is, in my opinion so far, the best decade in my life apart from all the abovementioned side effects and then some.

@Duygu Well, then I guess I have to be looking forward to it…although I doubt Katka will look forward to the “forgetting your girlfriend’s name” part 😉
