Mid Life Crisis
It'll be another 20 years before most of our generation hits Mid Life Crisis but I'm sure most of you have come across this phenomena personally. Be it your father, your uncle, or your next door neighbour on pension.
People going through Mid Life Crisis tend to do silly things like jumping out of airplanes, driving around the world in a 4WD or buying a Honda Goldwing. If you are unfamiliar with what a Goldwing is, take a look.

It's the same all around the world. You must be Apeh to ride this bike.
It's quite like a car, but on two wheels. If Optimus Prime went for Lipo and did a Marie France, he'd end up looking like that.
Very much like how there is a minimum age requirement of 30 years old for aspiring Taxi drivers in Singapore, To ride a Goldwing, you should be at least 40 and above, have some sort of facial hair and some balding on the top would be recommended. Why would ahpeks want to buy this sort of thing? It costs nearly $20,000. For that amount, you can buy 18 Scramblers. On the road it occupies the same space a car does. It handles like an overweight motorcycle and when you crash it, it still rolls and flips and doesn't offer the rider much protection. Except for the airbag they installed in newer models. Yup, airbags. If the crash doesn't hurt you, the air bag will surely give you a good punch in the face.

They get pregnant too
So if you suspect that someone is going through a mid life crisis, look at his garage and all will be revealed.
