Things we will never do when we are 30+

Kiki in a white jacket outside by a lake

Look, I'm not going to name names, that's not me. But a certain person on the right (ADELINE HAHAHA) just said something funny, followed by: ‘Yeah, but I'm over thirty, right, then that's allowed.’ It brought Lil and me (terrified of that big 3-0 and quite on the ‘whatever' chair today) to the next point. Everything we are NOT going to do when we are thirty. Here it comes.

Cursing with ‘potverdriedubbeltjes’

Or ‘potjandikkie’. Or ‘chips’. Chip mess. Or ‘kut met peren’.

Doing groceries for the whole week

Because: nice and practical.

Saying things like ‘vlot’ and ‘gaaf’
Hey Popi Jopi, everything cool behind the zipper?

Having a birthday calendar in the toilet

Ha. Haha. HAHAHA.

Complaining about leaking nipples and diaper rash

Brrrrr.

Waking up before the alarm goes off

Seeing the light of day on Sunday before 8:00 AM and immediately jumping in the shower.

Not putting your phone on your nightstand

Because hello, don't you know how bad that radiation is?

Sharing a newspaper subscription with the neighbors

It seems to be a thing, people, it seems.

Buying a bookshelf

By the way, that falls into the same category as ‘putting on an audiobook’ before going to sleep.

Wearing skin-colored tights

May will explain to you here very nicely why.

Not letting plants die

Although this is not really a matter of not wanting to, but simply not being able to.

Building on that...

Repotting your plants or making cuttings, something like that. Just like changing the water in your flower vase.

Cutting hair short

What is that? Short hair? We don't do that.

Washing the curtains

I just heard on the right that there are people who do that. Wow.

Using another word for thong

Like slip. It doesn't get worse than the word slip, dear people.

Doing your front yard‘

Because oh dear, what will the neighbors think?

Using ox gall if you have stains

And then getting up early on Saturday morning to buy it. You immediately take six tubes of toothpaste because hey, they're on sale. Right?
