I'm 51.

1 neck surgery, 3 cancer surgeries, 2 knee surgeries, 2 back surgeries, 1 knife wound and two gunshot wounds later, I can't remember what it's like to run.

I miss it more than anything. Best I can manage is a decent walk pace, and I can only manage that for about a mile.
Keep on keepin on bro, that’s all you can do. I got some knee issues so I wear knee supports when I run (Jog). Got some moderate deterioration in my back but I’m not letting those fuckers put my spine under the knife.

To me, getting older is a badge of honor because a lot of people never get close to our age bro, and I’ve got to experience the joy of having Grandkids (2-granddaughters and 1-Grandson).

Im pushing 40 and have 2 kids. Im guessing 300$ bong boy wouldn't be talking about old dudes to their faces.

I think when you get older you become more practical about those type of things. Guys our age, at least for me, put more value on the destination than the vehicle used to get there. I’m guessing if we polled 50 and above members on their preferred means to smoke, it would probably be spoon pipes, joints and maybe bubblers

My weapon of choice is a 25 dollar grav labs sherlock pipe.

It's quick, easy, and small enough to go anywhere with me at any time.

I stash it behind the tool kit under the seat of my Vmax when I go riding.

It's perfect.

No problems there.

Recently purchased a new piece of glass, costed me $295, i'm thinking it'll be worth it. i'd just like to get some other opinions on the piece.

Its looks fairly simple to me. Any particular reason you think the function is gonna be superior to something for lets say $150 or so? Sorry just looks plain to me.

Thats my collection posted a few months back. Just posting again so you can see i do spend money on glass so i dont think its a waste of cash to buy glass.

If i was gonna drop another $300+ on a flower bong i would buy another Sheldon Black like this one in my collection 4D976173-A20A-431A-9ED1-70CDA3D7957D.jpeg

That’s fucked up. Watch that karma shit youngster. You have possibly a lot of life ahead of you and a handicap can happen in an instant.
if you ask me, it's not fucked up, its the truth. what person would be afraid to face a handicapped man? karma's non existent, if it were it would've smited me a long time ago. handicaps can happen at anytime, i agree. this doesn't make me wanna take back my word any more or less. if you get shot, and stabbed, odds are you put yourself in harms way, and had some type of awareness of the danger going into the situation.

Karma is usually served cold.

That is until they hit that dreaded "mid-life crisis", of course... haha

@NirvanaMesa Age and number of kids isn't an excuse to not pamper ourselves from time to time.
I'm going on 39 with a 4th child on the way and I too buy frivolous things every now and then but I can afford to; I'm also old enough to know how to budget for such things. :bigjoint:

I'm 51, have two kids and don't buy anything frivolous.

Ever.

My daughter graduates this coming school year. Even with a scholarship, her education is going to cost about 197,000 dollars.

So I forego stupid, frivolous shit in favor of providing her a top notch education. The University of Chicago and Emory University don't come cheap.
