Why College Students And Old People Are Basically The Same Thing

At face value, it seems like college kids and senior citizens couldn’t have less to do with each other. If you look close enough, however, you’ll see some pretty undeniable proof that they’re basically living the exact same lives.

LA-based illustrator Ian Higginbotham has put together a few comic strips that show the similarities between young students and their (much) older counterparts, and it turns out they go even deeper than museum ticket discounts. After checking these cartoon drawings, you might find that you relate to the old folks – or youngins – in your life a little bit more.

Vote for the funny comics that sum up your life the most below, and share these cool drawings with anyone who might benefit from a new perspective on the supposed ‘age gap.’
