That is atypical.
Now if you become one with a chair for most of the day, expect it in your 40s. And expect an active 80+ year old to physically kick your ass by the time you hit 60.
But 30s? That’s an outlier.
If the wheel was emotional pain, I think it would be more appropriate.
Psychic troubles will sooner or later affect the body and might explain what the meme describes.
Hey I'm exceptional at something at last.
No joke.
I had about 15 years between 30 and 45 as a zero-exercise desk jockey and it early killed me.
The deterioration was unreal. Took a few years to get back fitness and any kind of core strength.
So, my best advice to young people with desk jobs : Keep up your exercise, even if it’s just a little.
Prophetic typo
Back pain stared when I was 10 then my knees in my mid 20s. Buy a good mattress and go to the gym people!
I dunno about it being as much of an outlier nowadays. People seem to sit a lot for their jobs, and then glue themselves to their couch when they get home.
Getting up and walking around a bit goes a long way.
You underestimate my unity with my chair.
