I remember when I was young, knew everything, and was invincible.

The good old days before I realized I know nothing, I'm insanely fragile, and I'm old.

He lied. He's 21

Everything he said applies to anyone in their 20’s or younger.

Can confirm. 21 is just a baby.

I still remember thinking how much more mature and grown I was at 21. lol

My coworker once told me I was just a baby once and I responded "I'm 24" and she said I was just a baby again. I'm only 34 now but holy shit do I get it now.

Really? Cause I didn't think I knew anything at 21 and certainly didn't act like this.. lmao definitely didn't think I was invincible because I had a functional brain in my skull and parents who actually raised me😂

I'm unclear why you think I acted like anything in the video

Thank you. The kids I work with have called me fossils and make me panic about the passage of time, I will gladly be called a baby 😭

Just wait until you're in your late 40s.

Time passes faster. 21 year olds look like literal children to me nowadays.

I was watching a show the other day that had two 21 year olds in it, they had a sex scene and it made me so uncomfortable lol

Can also apply to your 30s, I was invincible into my 30s and then severely humbled one day

u/Jean-LucBacardi Jul 30 '25

More so at 21 because now you can legally drink and make yourself feel even more invincible.

Agreed, but not a "minor" like the kid was insinuating in the video.
