The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows a brain. The brain is saying “I’m 30 and YOUNG! I only recently fully developed!”
The second panel shows a heart. The heart says “I hear ya! I can keep going for DECADES more!”
The third panel shows a spine’s face. It weakly says, “I am old”.
We zoom out and the spine is using a walker. It continues, “so very old”.

The one positive of being a spineless wimp: No back pain.
Guess evolution still needs a couple million years to finish making us bipedal lol
I feel this joke in my bones.
Early 40s, in the best shape of my life. Jogged, lifted weights, had my diet, supplements, and sleep dialed in perfect. I had tremendous amount of energy and felt great, high achieving in many areas of my life and the old lady and I screwed like rabbits.
Fast forward 7 or 8 years, degenerative disc disease caught up to me, now I can barely sit down on the toilet to take a crap. I’m barely functional due to the depression and loss of mobility and am in constant pain and discomfort.
But aside from the back, muscle loss, weight gain, limp dick, failing eyesight, heart murmur, hair loss, receding gums, cancer lying in ambush, and brain fog, everything else is fine. 🤣
Crazy to think the system wants to squeeze 20 more years of labor out of me. Why are we all putting up with this??
Idk how to react to this but, hang in there dude
Hey, thanks for the kind words! Yeah, it’s a bitch but honestly it’s a journey we all go through.
If we’re lucky.

waves, oww noo, shouldn’t have done that!!
Getting old sucks but it beats the alternative
100%
Y’all need to go to the gym or otherwise train your backs. I’ve been going for about three months (1-2 times a week) and the back pains are gone. Am 34, software engineer, and still a little overweight, so you can do it too!
It’s a complete mott and bailey. Obviously 95% of people can avoid back issues by just working out a few times a week. But when you point that out you apparently just happen to be speaking to the one person who has severe scoliosis and it’s implied that that’s who all of the people complaining about bad backs are dealing with.
It’s an identical situation when you talk to people who complain about sleep or diet issues.
The victim role is much easier to accept than responsibility. Speaking from experience 🫠
I’m 50, worked out for years, took care of myself, did stupid shit all my life, no issues with my back. Maybe take care of yourself a bit everyone?
32, lazy as fuck. I work as a chef 0 back pain and I engage in bisexual sitting. No idea why I don’t have back pain but I’m convinced my sitting style is akin to doing yoga constantly or something
Bisexual sitting is how I know you’re a night chef.
the fuck is bisexual sitting?
Actual phenomenon where bisexuals sit anywhere except in a chair. My wife will sit on the floor, a table, on the arm of a chair, upside down on the couch, etc
We can’t sit straight
Can’t sit gay either
Looks like a skill issue tbh
When you can literally injure yourself while sleeping.
I once woke up with 3 dislocated ribs; one in the front, two in the back. Spent the first few hours of the day relocating them
Had they rolled under the bed?
The brain is always “developing”. The whole 25 years thing is a myth and not based on real science.
It’s the new “we only use 10% of the brain”.
when i was 22, i had some docs tell me i had the bones of a 60 year old
Where’d you get them from? Hopefully not stolen. Somebody might need those.
