| | Two People Stabbed - Morning attack
Apparently, an American man was responsible for two separate knife attacks within an hour Wednesday morning. https://www.20min.ch/story/mann-stic...n-663197883366 | The following 2 users would like to thank Chemmie for this useful post: | |

I read this yesterday - would love to know more. Dude here on vacation mad that there isn't any snow for skiing? A burned out Credit Suisse employee? A disgruntled EFer who was recently banned for giving out tit for tat red blobbies?

Reading between the lines, it looks like a man, a long way from home, with serious mental illness problems.

Maybe I’m just old but I would call a 38 year old a young man.

Mind you I was born in the 80's and seeing Kids in the workplace born after I started college is a shock. Many more shocks to come I suppose.

Maybe I’m just old but I would call a 38 year old a young man. | | | | | I initially read that he was 22 but that was the age of one of his victims.
I think anyone under 25 could be considered a young person.

Maybe I’m just old but I would call a 38 year old a young man. | | | | | Well, I was planning to not drink for a few days but... | Quote: |  | | | There is no universal consensus on what the exact definition of middle age is, but usual characteristics include the beginning of rapid decline of fertility, graying of hair, and lessening of opportunities. The American Psychological Association defines "middle adulthood" as beginning at 35 or 36, and many ranges do not end until 60 or 65. The Lancet considers midlife as starting from around age 40. Modern social scientists generally agree that midlife begins around 35 to 40 and ends around 55 to 60. | | | | | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_age |
