- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

I'm 54 and can run circles around most people, and I have light emphysema. These posts weird me out as well. Got a few theories about these people.
They're fat and the extra weight has stressed their joints and back. If they're American the odds are for it.
Never really exercised. Took my kids (9 & 11) on a hike to the creek. "How much further daddy?!" "Whole trip's only 1.2 miles, we're about halfway." <howls of outrage> We started elementary gym class, every single day, with a mile jog.
Around 30+ is when you first start noticing that you're aging and just might not be 10-foot tall and bulletproof much longer. Maybe they're exaggerating?
