      Billy Ray Cyrus’s daughter is born

      She has a song out called “Used to be Young”. She was born in the 90s and has a song out about not being young and crazy any more. WT-actual-F

        Everyone over the age of 20 thinks they’re old now.

        Everyone older than them responds with some variation of, “Just you wait!”

        Always been this way.

        She’s 31. Which isn’t that old but older than the “young and crazy” phase I suppose
