These Creaky Old Bones
I once saw a meme with a split-screen format. The top was labeled “Falling off a roof as a kid” and showed a smiling kid giving thumbs up. The bottom was labeled “Sleeping weird in your 30s” and showed someone in a hospital bed who’s in a full-body cast.
And when I saw it, I think I laughed and then wept softly for a few minutes. It’s the absolute truth: these days, literally everything hurts. I once cricked my neck so badly I needed to see a chiropractor—just by sitting at my desk. And what’s worse is knowing that it’s just going to get worse until, eventually, I die.
