You thought it wouldn't happen to you, but here it is—the big 3-0. When you were a kid, life was simpler. You rode your bike to a friend's house to play NES, came back when the streetlights turned on, and didn't have a care in the world. The music was louder, the fashion was wilder, Hollywood was on a roll with timeless classics, and the internet was just a baby taking its first wobbly steps.
And now—BAM!—you're 30. Nights out? Forget it. Video games? Who has the time? New music doesn't hit the same, fashion looks like a fever dream, Hollywood is drowning in remakes, and the internet? A cesspool of fake news and conspiracy theories. But hey, you've got your own car now, and nobody tells you what to do anymore (except maybe your boss and the occasional HOA notice).
These 31 memes are a nostalgic nod to the good old days and a celebration of surviving three decades of chaos. Welcome to the 30s club—it's not so bad (as long as you don't stand up too quickly).
