Any "Over the hill" rollers out there?

Daimo, If you have just turned 50 then your still a baby.
Im well past you and I still go hard and still am told I look younger than my brothers who are ten years younger than me.
Age is in your head.
However I do understand what you mean about perceptions because age is also in other peoples heads.
But I find that can also be a good thing.
It is getting bloody hard to find good stuff especially here In Australia but thats life I guess.

You make me happy, Mazdan. I am tired of the stigma that (responsible) drug use is only for the very young and to be used a phase. I introduced my dad to MDMA and came to found out he had been doing MDA, LSD, mescaline, weed, cocaine and likely other stuff all throughout my childhood, and he is extremely successful and has always been a loving, present father.

I think the "older" rollers I meet are evidence that if you respect a drug, you can enjoy it for life. I think people perceived as older have issues making friends that do MDMA or being trusted, as the stigma is that they must be cops.
 
I personally like the idea of someone who is older using drugs as I feel like if they are aged and look "put together" it is further proof that drug use can be a healthy thing as this is hard to convey to many people who are swept up in the media and government propaganda.

Keep on truckin' :)

And to who mentioned the fest in WV, I went this year and met an (compared to me) older fellow who said he enjoys festivals and he was awesome as hell, I really don't think age should come into play besides like a different poster said when it is the opposite sex-legal reasons of course.
 
i raged with my parents at tiesto last week. i'm 24 and they're 45. and I hate to say it, but my dad has had to hook me up lately, not the other way around.
 
I hate it, ive had a hard life and missed out on a lot of normal younger years and have small sad little moments thinking im too old for this shit now, ive wasted and lost so much time and had it taken from me *sigh*

I dread every birthday now I so dont want to get any older either, wtf wasnt I born in a better age of medical science goddamnit!?!?

Well lifes coming pretty good right now so make the most of it I say, always somebody worse off than yourself.
 
Hey

Im 36, I still roll, have been since about I was 22. Took a 4 year break in there somewhere. I no longer roll at clubs, do it more with people I know and house events. ( that sounds like an old person thing, don't it? :) But the club scene is just out of my age group now, I went to a club a few months ago and realized I was old and everyone else wasn't. I'll just stick with with rolling in a comfortable environment for now on.

I'm in my early 30's. Is that considered an oldie by this board's demo? I definately think that after you start having to pay rent and food and utilities for yourself, you begin to slow down in the drug activities. But one of the secrets to staying young at heart is living apart from the mainstream. I don't have a 9 to 5 job, don't want one, have immersed myself in art and music, try to find quirky friends. When I go to parties these days, I'm aware of the baby faces in the crowd. Just two days ago, I got molly with the help of a kid who could not have been more than 19. And I was thinking, "wow, does this kid know how old I really am?" I probably still look like I'm in my twenties.

I don't ever want to grow up. :! That's one of my biggest fears.

When you are in your 50s you look back and realise that when you were in your 30s you were still sooooooooo young.
I have learnt from that and remember that I am young now. For sure as hell when I am in my 70s I will look back at me in my 50s and think.............geeeez I was sooooooo young.
So dam it im a gunna make the most of being young while I still am.
 
MazDan hits the nail on the head. "Old" is entirely a relative term. I look at the pics of the parties my partner and me went to ten years ago (when we were in our early 50s), and I see younger, glowing, super-hot people having a fabulous time. A 20 something person looking at those same pics would see a group of old fogeys. That's why raves and clubs are best for 20 somethings (and teens), and house parties are the way to go for us. If you want to keep having "the best night ever" into older adulthood and beyond (and who doesn't want that?), keep young by limiting it to once every couple months. And keep dancing.
 
42 here. The missus and I like to roll whenever we get hold of any, which is like once every 3 or 4 years. Wish it was a little more often, but what you gonna do. Life/reality/kids/careers seem to take precedence these days.
 
The kids probably think you are an undercover cop. I really think that drug dealers don't care what age you are. They just want your money. Its just sometimes hard to score at certain parties and other parties it's offered to you on the spot. Best thing that I have tried in the past is not to look for something too hard, if I come across it then that's great. If I don't then I always have alcohol.
 
It's funny - I'm nearing 40 and I do much more of this sort of stuff than when I was younger. Back then I was worried about establishing my career and stuff. I'm fortunate that I've been pretty successful and now it's time to enjoy that. I was the guy studying and taking it (relatively) easy in college. Now I'm able to behave responsibly, afford my stuff and have a lot of fun. I dont want to be the creepy old guy in the club, and luckily I look younger than I am. Hopefully that can stay for a little while longer!

I'm only 25, but a lot of times going to raves makes me feel 'over the hill' ;)

I'm 25 as well, and I feel old now too at raves, not clubs though.

In life though when i turned 23, it was the first time I felt like I was getting old. Age is just a number as others have put it, just enjoy your life and do what you like to do, need to remember this.

I am 27 and I feel over the hill too at raves. But who cares? As long as I am happy, I dont give a flying fuck. Of course, as I am getting older, I feel like I have more at stake to lose such as all of my accomplishments that I don't take many risks at raves as in the past. There are a lot of kids there and then there are a lot of adults. The positive thing is that I look like I am 22, I am hot, really pretty, smart, cool, easy to talked to and I end up meeting lots of people. I have to remind all the young guys that I am not in their age group and I talked to everyone else and relate about how passionate I am about this scene.
 
I was out at house music night in Londone recently. I guess we were older than most there but certainly not all. There were plenty of people around our age. if you pick your music and night then there are people who were clubbing it in the 90's hay days who still like to have it.
