    It just makes the boomers whole “forever young” ethos all the more creepy. They really did become the generation that had a mid-life crisis that never ended and made it everyone’s problem.

    Oh yeah, and with all the shit about Diddy, Drake, Epstein, Mike Jeffries, (probably) Trump and Musk. How many of these creeps are our neighbors but the only thing that ultimately stopped them is the fact they know even they would be caught?

      I used to think “mid-life crisis” was an inevitability when I saw it presented on screens when I was a kid: that someday I’d be in my 40s and need to be in denial about it and have a convertible and a leisure suit and try to hit on women half my age.

      That was just boomers telling on themselves. I’m well into my 40s and that didn’t happen, not even in a “wearing neon and spiking my hair 80s style” way.
