As of today, I am a quarter of a century old. And halfway to fifty. Weird.
Have a pic of my current dream car for your time. And feel free to buy me one as a birthday present.

That's not a red Model S, what's wrong with you?! Has old age addled your brain already?

Happy birthday!
Get off my lawn.

Possibly. :( Red and black are my two favorite colors, so I figured I'll be happy with either.

Not really. But even if I did, not like I could afford to do anything about it haha. Right now the main crisis is that pressure is on from friends and family alike for my wife and I to have a baby. And I'm just not ready for all that business.

Ignore them. If you want a baby, have a baby. If you don't, don't. It's not their hypothetical baby.

Happy birthday. May your year be happy bright, but not so bright it hurts your eyes.

I get the when are you getting married/having a baby stuff a lot too so I feel your pain. I get less baby since we're not married but I still get it.
I got a little bummed leading up to and after my 25th. I wasn't where I wanted to be in life or where I expected to be at that point. The recession had some to do with that. I'm in a much better place now than I thought I could so I caught up and made up for it. Just not on my original timeframe. So if you do feel down or feel like you're behind like I did know that it can and often does get better and life plans are mostly useless.

Yeah, I feel that way exactly. I got a very good paying job and was fired from it before I finished training. That was on April 1st. Then on September 2nd, I started working where I do now (at the same company I worked at before the good job offer that I was let go from). A menial cubicle job making $24k a year. I feel like I wasted my college education and I'm sad that this is all im doing with my life. But I am a Christian guy so I am trying my best to trust that God has something planned for me, since my plans obviously don't work out.

Very good idea. Right now I just tell them that our dog is our baby and if they want to babysit her then they are more than welcome.

welcome to the 25 year old club. There are no benefits.

First, happy birthday. And second, I don't believe how much I want a Model S since I've test driven one. I miss the singing of the engine, but otherwise, awesome, awesome car.

Don't take the baby comments seriously. My wife and I had our first kid after 8 years of marriage. In my experience most people aren't really trying to pressure you, they're just excited at the prospect of a new baby.
I understand the feeling old thing. You are firmly, no question, in the "adult" category now. Just accept that and enjoy life.
What's your degree in anyway? What's your dream job/profession?

Best advice I can give to that is don't just actively look for a new job but look for opportunities to do things. That sounds weird but when you listen to what people say there can be opportunities that most people won't pick up on. For example: someone says "I wish there was x to make y easier" or "it would be great if there was someone who would do z for me". That's how inventions and businesses get started

Don't fall for it. Having a kid at 25 ain't as easy as it used to be, that being said I turn 25 in Feb. and definitely wouldn't be ready.
Keep strapping on those jimmies!
