Dying is probably worse than being born, but both kinda suck
It's infinitely worse to be the oldest you'll ever be than the youngest you'll ever be.

You don’t usually remember either, so it’s basically a moot point.

I am never the oldest Ill ever be until I am dead.
I am already older as I finish this post as compared to when I began it.
When I review it later, I’ll be older yet.
I am the oldest I’ve been, but those are different things.

I’d be pissed if the oldest I reached was 30. 100? Nah I’d be dandy.
