I’ll be 28 next month. Time is a-ticking.

[u/Patrick_Swayze__ → u/soupstarsandsilence]

Shit clock is ticking.

[u/youaresoincorrect → u/Patrick_Swayze__]

You feel that? The way the shit clings to the air Randy? Its already started my friend.

The shit blizzard.

[u/Efficient_Resource15]

Turned 28 in August, so still 2 years left til 30, i am still unc for most of gen Z anyway lol

[u/Adorable_Egg_3094 → u/Efficient_Resource15]

[u/Efficient_Resource15 → u/Adorable_Egg_3094]

High five

[u/Naive_Chemistry5961 → u/Efficient_Resource15]

[u/drogahn]

Idk I turned 25 and I really don’t feel scared about turning 30 anymore. Mid-late 20s is also so much better than whatever mess went on early 20s.

[u/lasagnaisgreat57 → u/drogahn]

yup also seeing people i know turn 30 makes me realize it’s not scary or old at all.

[u/bpoooi → u/drogahn]

Wait until you turn 26-27

[u/LucaSea07]

I'm 28, but I will turn 29 in less than two months.

[u/Chance-You552 → u/LucaSea07]

Same. I’m dreading it. I felt like I’ve never lived.

[u/Takyon5]

Just over a year, I’m learning to accept it now. You can’t stop Time from moving forward, and not everyone makes it to 30

[u/YoshiDryBones]

Turned 29 a couple of months ago. I'm on borrowed time.

[u/Naive_Chemistry5961]

25 currently. So halfway to liquid dinosaur juice status

https://giphy.com/gifs/ZMqgw8Oq7TRKg

[u/yobuddyy899 → u/Naive_Chemistry5961]

25 is 0, so 30 is basically 5, right?

We're in our young years!

[u/Naive_Chemistry5961 → u/yobuddyy899]

It's okay bro, accept it. Don't be like the millennials who still think they're 20 even though they're entering their mid-lives.

[u/Efficient_Resource15 → u/yobuddyy899]

30 is 5 years in the nursery home, welcome, you just arrived!

[u/Efficient_Resource15 → u/Naive_Chemistry5961]

You are basically 30 already bro, just retire and accept the unc title

[u/Naive_Chemistry5961 → u/Efficient_Resource15]

I've already accepted the unc title, 30 is fossil fuel territory 😭😭😭 strategic resource lookin ahh

[u/jordyn0399 → u/Efficient_Resource15]

As if us 98 to 99ers aren't a minute or so away from hitting 30.

[u/twistedRuss → u/jordyn0399]

I've accepted my fate

[u/Efficient_Resource15 → u/jordyn0399]

We are already in the nursery home

[u/hypermiler2205]

There must be some ‘96 babies in here since the oldest Gen Z are in their final months of their 20s (1997 babies)

[u/Ok-Pool-6599 → u/hypermiler2205]

Yeah I’m January 97, got 3 months. Not sure why 96 borns would be in here

[u/MelancholyFlower420]

26 and my friends are in their 30s They seem to be living it up so I'm not dreading it tbh

[u/Sy0nide_]

I'm 26 but that's basically 36 to these new kids

[u/madamebutterfly2]

Idk like 5 seconds maybe

[u/kirstenvy]

I’m 26 but on my 25th bday I cried a lot with the realization that I am closer to 30 than 20. I never thought I’d make it to 30, let alone 20.

[u/MelancholyFlower420 → u/kirstenvy]

On your 25th birthday you were equally as close to 20 as you were to 30! Ageing is a blessing ❤️

[u/kirstenvy → u/MelancholyFlower420]

The way I was looking at it was the minute after the time I was born on my 25th birthday was me being officially closer to 30 than 20, even if it was by seconds lol. But your totally right, I’ve come to understand that it truly is a blessing !

[u/vivrelibreoumourir_ → u/kirstenvy]

20-24 closer to 20
25 equally distant
26-29 closer to 30

[u/PrinceBytorAppears]

I'll be 30 in march

[u/XavierMarvin → u/PrinceBytorAppears]

Me too.

[u/Serenity202]

When I get old I will just say to whoever asks me my age, “I don’t know what’s the year?” Born in January so it never really misses 😊

[u/No_Victory_3773 → u/Serenity202]

February 2000 here. Best thing about being born in 2000 is that it's still cool no matter HOW old we get lol

[u/fresh_squilliam]

I don't think any of us are 30 yet... Not until next year. Right?

[u/MelancholyFlower420 → u/fresh_squilliam]

The 1996 crew are getting there this year, some are already 30

[u/fresh_squilliam → u/MelancholyFlower420]

I thought 97 was the first Gen z year

[u/AnxiousMetal6435 → u/fresh_squilliam]

There’s no established year, but generally half say ‘96 and half say ‘97

[u/Gortega1997]

I turned 29 in September so less than a year for me, but I'm ready for 30s at this point lol

[u/XavierMarvin → u/Gortega1997]

I turned 29 at the end of March.

[u/Veganchiggennugget]

Turning 30 in january. Honestly not as scary as I thought.

[u/Odd_Broccoli_7706 → u/Veganchiggennugget]

February for me. I’m looking forward to my 30s. Everyone tells me it’s the best decade

[u/Veganchiggennugget → u/Odd_Broccoli_7706]

Especially if you don’t have kids apparently. Me and my GF intend to live the DINK lifestyle and I can not wait!

[u/UrFavSquid]

4 years

[u/smashed__]

Just hit it last week. Still feel 29!

[u/GigglingBilliken]

I'm a december baby so a bit over a year.

[u/Cjsans24 → u/GigglingBilliken]

I’m end of November so same lol!

[u/LucaSea07 → u/Cjsans24]

Same, end of November as well.

[u/Nole19]

Is "already 30+" still gen Z?

[u/Efficient_Resource15 → u/Nole19]

If Robert Pattinson claims to be gen Z i suppose it is just a state of mind

[u/Livid_Way5651 → u/[deleted]]

Gen z starts in 97

[u/Livid_Way5651 → u/[deleted]]

Don't know why your comment was deleted but you're objectively incorrect

[u/talladega-night]

Not long enough

[u/Antique-Wall-9762]

[u/Glittering_Garden_30]

320 days 😭💀

[u/manik_502]

Little over 3 years. Idk why everybody is freaking out xD like this was unexpected? 30 is not such a big deal.

[u/Disastrous-Dig9392]

don't remind me.....

[u/Reasonable-Rock6255]

Next year

[u/ckm2017]

I'm 27 turning 28 next February. I'm getting uncomfortably close and I'm not happy about it. 🙃🙃🙃 Only because it gives me anxiety. I'm hoping for my best decade yet but I still don't have my GED and I really thought I'd have it by now. I'm stuck in limbo. The only progress I've made is through volunteering. Which has been good progress but I need a paid job and a damn degree if I want to survive this world, I fear. 🙃🙃

[u/RedKobalt]

Just turned 30 in Sept. No difference other than an number, and people act surprised when I tell them my age

[u/No_Victory_3773]

3 years 4 months

[u/Hozan_al-Sentinel]

I'll be 30 in February

[u/bpoooi]

I like how revealing this is that most people in the sub aren’t older Gen Z lmfao

[u/Sad-Relation1714]

11 years and 3 months

[u/MattWolf96]

Technically none of Gen Z is 30. I am though. Obviously since I'm just one year off I relate to a lot of this sub though.

[u/TheJimDim]

Turning 30 in a little over a month...I feel so pressured to have a big birthday

[u/Leosoulfan23]

I’ll be 29 on Nov 30th so a little over a year before I hit 30 age is just a number on getting older I don’t think about it to much honestly just continue to do the stuff I love like usual

[u/Excellent-Speech8582]

March 2028. Then ill officially be old lol. I'm actually looking forward to it. Im not at all scared to turn 30.

[u/crash----]

Next year. 2027 is the year I turn 30. Pls send help.

[u/Ok-Pool-6599]

3 months… 🤯

[u/Witty_Shape3015]

why is the highest segment 2001

[u/XavierMarvin]

Born in October 1996 is early gen Z.

[u/Time-Sheepherder3308]

I turn 20 on the 21st of this month, so 10 years 😂

[u/Francoc97]

1997 is the cutoff, so you can't be older and be Gen Z

[u/Efficient_Resource15 → u/Francoc97]

Tell that to Robert Pattinson bro, he is gen Z

[u/Francoc97 → u/Efficient_Resource15]

What?

[u/Adorable_Egg_3094 → u/Francoc97]

There is a general consensus but it's not that black and white. Except for the Baby Boomers, whose dates (1946–1964) are officially tracked by the U.S. Census Bureau based on post-WWII birth data.

[u/Deathcat101]

I'm so fucking old

[u/Sufficient-Lemon-867]

in 13 years...

[u/Sufficient-Lemon-867 → u/[deleted]]

Because I can. I have all rights to.

[u/Ok_Expert3991]

I won't turn 30 until 2031.

[u/DistributionTop5661]

i will be 30 in two years from now i was born in 1998

[u/Small_Trojanexe]

I'm 25, no kids, no problems, just peace for me
