Middle Muddle

Exactly. There are some issues where no compromise position is possible because it’s like arguing if someone should chop you up into halves or quarters; either way, still dead!

Not sure why people (particularly Boomers) have such trouble understanding this….

Aging

Indeed. I am having more trouble telling people’s ages these days, and not just because I am getting older myself. Most of it is that everyone is increasingly unhealthy, so many 22-year-olds look 40+. It’s really disconcerting to realize someone is only 25 when they are so obese and unhealthy that they appear to be 45.

When I got to other countries, everyone tends to look really young to me because in general they are healthier.
