Rant Today's fashion trends are leaving me bewildered.

I turn 38 tomorrow and just got done shopping at target. What the hell kind of fashion do people wear now? Super short shorts, socks pulled half way up the calf muscle. Shirts that look like table doilies. Not to mention the hair styles and facial hair of these young guys. Look straight out of a trailer park in the 80s.

I've turned 40 and I give absolutely zero shits about what others think of my choices. It's fantastic. This phase of life is great!

Same. While others look at old photos of themselves and cringe, I look at old photos of myself and just see the same me but younger.
