Becoming a first-time grandparent is usually met with overwhelming excitement. Tiny baby shoes, pushing swings to reach the stars, and spoiling the little ones with sweets their parents swore were off-limits. Sounds perfect, right? Well, apparently not for these in-laws. After a young couple joyfully announced their pregnancy, the soon-to-be mother was met with a …

Dad invites 26-year-old daughter to dinner with his 36-year-old girlfriend and her 13-year-old daughter, girlfriend excludes her from sitting with them when they get to the restaurant: ‘My father’s girlfriend told the host, «Table for 2″‘
It doesn’t feel very good to be in a situation where you have a sense that you’re not wanted. Last weekend, I was third-wheeling with two good friends, and the whole time, I had a gut feeling that it probably wasn’t ideal for them to have me there. They weren’t being cruel to me, they …

29-year-old berates her 35-year-old sister-in-law because she looks young for her age, sulks when waiter assumes she’s 18-years-old: ‘She told me I should wear a bib since I’m such a baby’
Everyone is extremely weird about age. I’ll never forget the time I was at a bar with my friends when two 21-year-olds approached us. One of them turned 21 that very day, and this was the first bar she ever went to legally. She asked me and my friends how old we were. I said, …

‘I should suspend you’: Teacher Mistakes Another Teacher for a Student, Snatches Phone Out of Her Hand and Sends Her to Detention
If you were blessed with young-looking genes, you encounter some pretty funny things. You get asked for ID in your thirties. You get told by a distant aunt at a family dinner to go sit at the kid’s table. You get mistaken by teachers for being a student… that is, if you work in education. …

Coffee shops are the perfect place to relax, work, or meet up with friends, and although there is some debate regarding whether it’s socially acceptable for people to sit down for hours on their laptop while drinking a singular coffee for 5 bucks, coffee shops allow it.

‘I hit 40 and the check engine light came on’: Elder Millennials forecast what to expect during your mid-life crisis
Crunchy knees, grey hairs, and an insatiable urge to give hooligans the bird? Toto, I have a feeling we’re not in our 30s anymore. Aging is inevitable, but for some, it comes as a surprise that their body starts to deteriorate when you find 40 birthday candles on your cake. Humans are meant to slow …

‘Most people I’ve known peaked somewhere between 25 and 30’: Youngsters debate whether your 20s or 30s are your true prime
Ever since I was a teenager, I’ve been afraid of «peaking.» The idea of reaching a point where you feel like «everything’s downhill from here» was and still is terrifying. I remember being in the car with my high school girlfriend’s dad, and we talked about peaking in high school. I mentioned not wanting to …

‘And we act surprised when 10 year olds are in Sephora’: TikToker promotes ‘anti-wrinkle straws’, gets roasted by the internet
Aging is a privilege that not everybody gets, and that’s just one of the reasons it’s so evil that many of us have been convinced that it’s the worst thing to ever happen to us. Unfortunately, it makes a privileged few a heck of a lot of money, so we live in a world where …

29-Year-Old Man Brags About ‘Training’ His 19-Year-Old Girlfriend Into ‘The Perfect Woman For Him’
Age gap relationships are among my favorite and least favorite pieces of internet discourse. If I’m being honest, I have been a valiant defender of some age-gap relationships on Memebase. I don’t like when slight age gaps are blamed for other obvious issues in relationships, and I especially don’t like it when people infantilize perfectly …

Young People Discuss The Importance of Intergenerational Friendships
So many people are weird about age. We’ve got 20-year-olds telling 25-year-olds that they «look good for their age.» Middle-aged people are catastrophizing about young people killing various industries. Twenty-somethings claim that a 26-year-old dating a 38-year-old is a predatory age gap. If you’re spending too much time online, it might seem like nobody knows …
