    I realize we all expect to probably have a lot of life ahead of us. But what's been the hardest part so far?

    Mine has definitely been the last three years or so. I hated high school while I was in it but dig the time I spent there in retrospect. It was very easy to just live my life in opposition to shit I hated and build some identity around that.

    When I got to college and was no longer surrounded by people who didn't seem to have a similar outlook I reacted like a fucktard. I just reverted into myself and assumed that everyone was too far up their own ass to know what the fuck was up. As that illusion started to lose validity I was confronted by the worst of all evils. It wasn't my place in the world that was the problem but rather myself. Fuck it.

    Not to mention at this age you have to start making a shit load of life decisions that you are totally ill-equipped to make. And you actually end up on your own for the first time. It's fucking hard out here doggs.

    you should be allowed to select multiple ranges then. mods

    technically, i was scrawny til 18 or so, but those last years were less angsty.

    Agree that 11-15 is a brutal time in any Hound's life. One week you've got clear skin and the next an outbreak of zits that sets you back for weeks.

    Thought this thread was entirely about hounding, and only just realized it might not be. "To date" threw me.

    Moving from Hickville TX to a bougie IL suburb in the middle of February at the age of 13 was brutal.

    21-22

    finished uni, split with my gf of 5 years and one of my best mates died, all within the space of a month. went into a near-death substance abuse nosedive.

    its scary looking back on how out of control I was and I'm eternally indebted to the friends who pulled me back from the brink.

    When my cat Berlioz got sick and died. Can't imagine anything will top it until I lose my other cat Strider or a parent. Just the thought of losing Strider can make me nauseous & depressed for hours.

    The last year or so has been brutal.  Two dead cats (Zi's fourth birthday would've been tomorrow), one dead aunt, one major car accident, tons of physical therapy and so forth, Joe Walsh's people taking me to court (sour grapes notwithstanding, though, that was my fault), profound poverty, the Miami Heat, beating up the groom at his bachelor party, and then the psycho hose-beast ex-girlfriend debacle(s) are the bigger issues, I guess.

    And, as I'm too ready to point out, it's been about 106 weeks since I got it on.

    Very jealous of my not-that-close college friend who won Big Brother, the other day, too. Fucker.

    A man who's gone through all that doesn't deserve to have Village Pizza burn down. I hope they save(d) the place.

    Zappo, the next time you get laid we should have a Chicago YSG meeting at a bar to celebrate the occasion. I'll probably be of legal drinking age by then.

    0-5 --- pretty great
    6-10 --- not bad
    11-15 --- I should probably achieve self-awareness pretty soon, oh well!
    16-20 --- what just happened? well that went by fast
    21-25 --- relax and go with the flow, everything will work itself out!
    26-30 --- oh shit, that's not true!
    31-35 --- alright, time to get my act together... oh wait it's too late
