That sounds like something my 25 year old self would have asked me.

People back then were making bets I wouldn't see 40, was a bit crazy at the time. Guess I've beat that buy 15 so far.

Yeah, a few people are doing it backwards.
Why are drummers always considered the batshit crazy ones? :awe:

"you're still fucking alive?!!!??"
Yeah, something along those lines. :\

And maybe, "Huh, double the years but we still look the same. Weird."

Or "You're not working at NASA? Wait, they have a lot of hurricanes in Florida, don't they."

Probably scare him so bad he'd dive into his studies like a Chinese immigrant kid and send him off on a healthy diet/work out regimen. Basically, he'd probably say "Is that the best you could do?".

Probably be proud of the fact that he knew ahead of time that taking all of the AP and dual credit courses his last 2 years of high school was pointless, once he sees how well he's done for himself compared to everyone else he graduated with.

Also, you will lose the baby fat (and then some), and marry someone far out of your league.
